The Mercedes-Benz E300 is all new for 2017, and it shows. The technology in the car stands out to such a degree that it tends to dominate recent conversations about midsize luxury cars. From the obvious – the all-digital sweep of the instrument cluster into the infotainment screen – to subtler bits like the damn-useful, touch-capacitive thumb switches on the steering wheel, this E oozes techy appeal.
As you might expect with one of Mercedes’ bread-and-butter products, the driving experience has been well-sorted, too. This is every bit the luxury car, quiet and smooth just about everywhere, but with a hint of athleticism that may just convince the odd erstwhile BMW fan, too.
