The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has long been the standard bearer for midsize luxury sedans.
It has always been able to offer consumers a taste of Mercedes' flagship S-Class experience in a smaller, more affordable package.
Despite the growing dominance of luxury SUVs in the marketplace like its corporate sibling, the Mercedes-Benz GLE, the E-Class remains a key figure in the brand's lineup.
In 2024, Mercedes launched the all-new sixth-generation E-Class sedan, known internally as the W214. With the sixth-gen E-Class comes fresh styling, new tech, and updated engine options.
