HIGHS
Sweetly smooth ride, a cocoon of luxury, beats the S-class in trunk space.

LOWS
Loads of rear-passenger space, has gained 170 pounds, we're still waiting on the wagon.

VERDICT
The new E-class blurs the line between mid-size and S-size, but its evolution has been carefully deployed.

Overview
The E-class sedan is executive transport with a distinctly Mercedes-Benz attitude, offering nearly as much class and substance as the S-class flagship with a slightly less imposing profile. Entry-level E350 models are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder powertrain with 255 horsepower while E450s turn up the heat to 375 horsepower courtesy of a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six. All-wheel drive is standard, and all models come luxuriously equipped and include a generous list of driver-assistance and infotainment features. Other European rivals like the Audi A6 and the BMW 5-series offer similar space and equipment but neither brand has quite the prestige that comes with a Mercedes-Benz badge.

What's New for 2024?
This year marks the start of an all-new generation of the E-class sedan, which has been redesigned from the ground up with more technology and luxury than the outgoing model. The four- and six-cylinder powertrains have received hybrid assistance this year resulting in power boosts, and the exterior styling wears a handsome new look. Inside, a host of new technology features pepper the cabin. We expect to see the 2024 E-class in dealer showrooms by the end of 2023.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Under the E350's scalloped hood is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that pairs with a 23-hp electric motor for a combined 255 horsepower. The E450 model gets a similar hybrid setup for its turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, which brings the total to 375 horsepower. The hybrid systems are said to reduce turbo lag and smooth the operation of the auto start/stop system. We haven't driven the E350 yet, but the E450's inline-six deploys its power like a cream and does so quietly. When we get a chance, we'll take the E350 and E450 to our test track and update this story with acceleration numbers. An adjustable air suspension is optional and replaces the steel-spring arrangement that comes standard; a rear-wheel steering system is also available and is said to improve maneuverability in tight spaces.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
The EPA hasn't released fuel economy estimates for the 2024 E-class yet, but we expect to see small improvements over the 2023 model's numbers. When we get a chance, we'll take the E-class on our 75-mph highway fuel economy route and update this story with test results. For more information about the E-class's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Unsurprisingly, the E-class's cabin is focused on comfort and quality. Passenger space appears generous in photos and the interior is lined with rich-looking materials such as leather upholstery and metal trim. Overall, the design is high-end and nicely complements the car's handsome exterior styling. Although the E-class has been offered as a coupe and a convertible in the past, we're expecting this generation to stick strictly to a four-door layout.

Überblick
Die E-Klasse-Limousine ist ein Executive-Transportmittel mit deutlicher Mercedes-Benz- Attitüde und bietet fast so viel Klasse und Substanz wie das Flaggschiff der S-Klasse mit einem etwas weniger imposanten Profil. Die E350-Einstiegsmodelle werden von einem turbogeladenen 2,0-Liter-Vierzylinder-Antriebsstrang mit 255 PS angetrieben, während die E450-Modelle dank eines turbogeladenen 3,0-Liter-Reihensechszylinders die Leistung auf 375 PS steigern. Allradantrieb ist Standard und alle Modelle sind luxuriös ausgestattet und verfügen über eine großzügige Liste an Fahrerassistenz- und Infotainmentfunktionen. Andere europäische Konkurrenten wie der Audi A6 und der BMW 5er bieten ähnliches Platzangebot und ähnliche Ausstattung, aber keine der beiden Marken verfügt über das Prestige, das mit einem Mercedes-Benz-Emblem einhergeht.

Mercedes hat die Preise für die E-Klasse 2024 noch nicht bekannt gegeben, aber wir gehen davon aus, dass sie in den gleichen drei Ausstattungsvarianten wie die kleinere C-Klasse angeboten wird: Premium, Exclusive und Pinnacle. Kombinieren Sie diese mit den beiden verfügbaren Antriebssträngen und die E-Klasse verfügt über ein Angebot mit sechs Ausstattungsvarianten und einer breiten Preisspanne, um ein großes Publikum von Käufern von Luxuslimousinen anzusprechen.
