The new gen model which world premiered at NAIAS (Detroit Motor Show) earlier this year is a drastic changeover compared to the outgoing model.

Based on the MRA (Modular Rear-wheel-drive Architecture), the new E sources several critical components and modules from the smaller C and bigger S Class models. The styling too conforms to the brand’s latest philosophy which is characterized by smooth flowing aerodynamic lines.

Inside, the new E Class borrows design inspiration equally from the C Class and S Class. The upper half of the dashboard with digital instrument console (in higher variants) and wide infotainment display comes from the flagship model while the lower half is lifted off the C Class. The latest iteration of the mid-size luxury sedan comes packed up to the brim with latest safety assistance systems, connectivity and comfort features.
