Mercedes E-Class

The E-Class peaked last year, but posting an eighth place finish in 2009 shows it’s far from ready for retirement! With the all-new version due on sale later in 2009, the German executive class model has set a high standard for its successor to follow.

While it’s not the sportiest saloon on the market – 56th for handling is nothing to boast about – the Mercedes has an exemplary ride quality and the stopping power of a supercar. It’s a breeze to drive and superbly built, too.

A raft of efficient new engines should help the next E-Class to improve on the 66th place running costs rating of its predecessor.

Your Quotes

“Beautifully built with pillow-soft ride and tremendous power delivery. More comfortable than an Audi, more elegant than a BMW and more roomy than a Lexus.”

MANUFACTURER VERDICT

Comfortably into the top 10, Mercedes has closed the gap on BMW. Third place for ease of driving and fourth for ride help, but the firm can improve on its 26th place out of 35 for running costs.
