  • The E 220 d diesel engine can be noisy

Is the Mercedes E-Class a good car?

The Mercedes E-Class is something of a lifeline for buyers needing a car that can travel huge distances in comfort and without having to stop often for fuel. The E 220 d diesel version isn’t as quiet as we’d like, but its impressive economy and respectable performance are perfect for a long trip. The onboard tech is high point, and the cabin is packed with screens and gadgets - especially when equipped with the Superscreen option. The plug-in hybrid versions lose out on boot space compared with rivals because its sizeable battery takes up valuable luggage capacity. There’s an estate version available for those needing greater practicality, though.

How much does the Mercedes E-Class cost? 

The Mercedes E-Class range is wide, spanning a starting price of around £55,000, all the way up to over £115,000 thanks to the high-performance AMG variants. The entry-level version is the E 200 petrol, although the E 220 d diesel is only slightly more expensive and offers better fuel economy.

Next up in the range are a pair of plug-in hybrids in E 300 e petrol and E 300 de diesel forms, both of which should appeal to company car drivers. The E 450 d offers a bigger, more powerful diesel engine option for those after a high-performance E-Class with excellent fuel economy, while the Mercedes-AMG E 53 Hybrid 4Matic+ is the range-topping model. There are saloon and estate variants available, but this review will just cover the former.

All E-Class models use a nine-speed automatic gearbox and feature a front-mounted engine. Most have rear-wheel drive, with the exception of the E 450 d and AMG E 53 models, which have four-wheel drive.

The trim range depends on which model you choose. The E 200 and E 220 d models come in AMG Line, AMG Line Premium, AMG Line Premium Plus, Exclusive Premium and Exclusive Premium Plus trims. The E 300 e and E 300 de models differ slightly by starting in Urban Edition trim instead of AMG Line as a way of standing out from its non-plug-in hybrid petrol and diesel siblings.

Meanwhile, the AMG E 53 hybrid model comes in Premium, Night Edition Premium, and Edition 1 variants.

Engines, performance & drive

The engine range in the Mercedes E-Class begins with the E 200 petrol. It’s a mild hybrid, four-cylinder motor with 201bhp (plus a little tiny electric helper motor as part of the mild hybrid system). It’s torquey, with 320Nm, and gets from 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds, so despite being the cheapest model, it’s still a good option for most people.

The E 220 d is a better fit for this type of car as it’s excellent for keeping fuel economy high while taking long motorway trips. It’s only a little less powerful than the petrol, with 194bhp but it has more torque - 440Nm - so it feels a bit more muscular when you put your foot down despite the slightly slower 0-62mph time of 7.6s.

The next rung up on the ladder is the E 300 e. It’s a plug-in rather than a mild hybrid like the E 200 and E 220 d, using a four-cylinder petrol engine that’s mated to an electric motor to boost total power to 309bhp. Thanks to its extra power, the 0-62mph time is over a second quicker than the E 200 (6.4 seconds). Plus, you get 70 miles of driving on electric power only, which is really impressive. 

The E 300 de also takes 6.4 seconds to get from 0-62mph. It uses the same-sized battery, so the electric range is about the same, and the total power is the same at 309bhp. The only difference is that it uses a diesel engine, which will be more efficient than the petrol engine in the E 300 e when you have to use the engine after the battery has been used up.

The E 450 d is the most expensive non-AMG model in the E-Class range. The six-cylinder diesel engine has mild hybrid technology to provide some electrical assistance to improve fuel economy and emissions, and provide a small performance boost when accelerating. With 362bhp, the E 450 d is a powerful car with more than enough power to get from 0 to 62 mph in a short 4.8 seconds. All that performance gets to the ground through a standard four-wheel drive system.

At the top of the range is the Mercedes-AMG E 53 Hybrid 4Matic+. It’s the replacement for the old E 63 models but, controversially, does away with a thundering V8 engine for a six-cylinder petrol engine and an electric motor. The combined power output is 577bhp and 750Nm of torque, so it’s clearly a match for the old V8 when it comes to power, but car fans will likely miss the old car’s characterful engine.

All cars use a nine-speed automatic gearbox, although the AMG model has different software that's tuned more for performance.

E 300 e309bhp6.4s147mph

What is the Mercedes E-Class like to drive?

In town 

The Mercedes E-Class is a large car, so it will never be as relaxing to drive as a smaller city car through narrow streets. However, it’s incredibly quiet at low speeds, especially in hybrid models that can drive using near-silent electric power without waking the engine.

Advertisement - Article continues below

The suspension is fantastic at masking bumps and potholes, plus the automatic gearbox is smooth in traffic. So as long as you don’t need to park in a tight car park, the E-Class is excellent around town.

On A- and B-roads 

The Mercedes E-Class is competent on twisty roads, but the BMW 5 Series is nicer to drive. The E-Class feels heavy, and the brakes of plug-in hybrid models, while effective, don’t give you the same confidence as the 5 Series and have an inconsistent pedal feel. The steering is numb - like many cars in this class - but light and quite quick, which can cause the car to feel a bit unsettled as you turn into bends.

There’s more body roll than a 5 Series in tight corners, but things improve once on an open A-road. The suspension in the E-Class smoothes out bumps very well (even in models with large alloy wheels and not much tyre sidewall). It does a fantastic job of providing a comfortable feel without jostling you and your passengers when travelling along a bumpy road.

On the motorway

The E-Class excels on the motorway. Its smooth suspension and powerful engines make it effortless to spend time here, while the low-drag bodywork keeps wind noise low and economy high. The diesel engine in the E 220 d is a little noisy under hard acceleration, but overall refinement is superb, and you could hardly hear the engine in the E 300 e model we tested.

Engines, 0-60 acceleration and top speed

The E-Class engine range has strong performance across the board. The E 200 petrol manages 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds, while the E 220 d does the same in 7.6 seconds. The top speeds of 149 and 148mph, respectively, reflect their home-country usage on the Autobahn; they’re great as high-speed cruisers despite being entry-level cars.

The E 450 d is the fastest non-hybrid in the range, and takes 4.8 seconds to go from 0-62mph. It can hit a limited top speed of 155mph.

The E 300 e and E 300 de are the economy-focused hybrids in the E-Class range, and can go from 0 to 62mph in 6.4 seconds. The petrol E 300 e has a top speed of 147mph, and the diesel E 300 de tops out at 146mph.

The high-performance Mercedes-AMG goes from 0-62mph in just four seconds and has a limited top speed of 155mph.

MPG, emissions & running costs

The plug-in hybrid E 300 e and E 300 de are the most economical models on paper. You can read more about them in the section below, but don’t expect to get near the advertised WLTP fuel economy figures in the real world, especially if you’re just using the engine once the battery is flat. The plug-in models have a smaller 50-litre fuel tank compared with the larger 66-litre tanks fitted to all non-plug-in petrol and diesel models.

The E-Class is economical compared with rivals. We’d recommend going for the E 220 d because of its excellent 58.9mpg fuel economy, which is great for those who do a lot of motorway miles. The entry-level E 200 petrol provides a respectable 44.2mpg, and might be a better choice if you mainly do short trips and don’t need the company car tax savings of the plug-in models.

The most powerful model without full-hybrid assistance is the E 450 d, which returns 44.9mpg. With over 360bhp, it’s really fast and luxurious yet still manages to be pretty economical overall, if not quite at the level of the E 220 d.

The two diesel engines produce emissions ranging from 126g/km to 165g/km, while the petrol E 200 sits between the two with a 146g/km figure. These versions will incur a higher Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) company car tax bill than the equivalent E 300 e or E 300 de plug-in hybrid model.

Model MPGCO2Insurance group
E 220 d58.9mpg126g/km36
E 20044.1mpg146g/km41
E 450 d44.9mpg165g/km50

Electric range, battery life and charge time

The Mercedes E-Class plug-in models have a stand-out electric driving range thanks to a large - by PHEV standards - 25.4kWh useable battery. This provides around 70 miles of range before the petrol or diesel engines in the E 300 e and E 300 de models are needed. There’s even a near 60-mile range in the high-performance AMG E 53 model, too.

The battery can be charged at a maximum rate of 55kW (60kW for the AMG E 53), which allows a 10-80 per cent top-up from a public charger capable of delivering such speeds in around 20 minutes. Most will prefer to charge at home using a cheaper overnight tariff, though. Using a typical 7.4kW wallbox charger, Mercedes quotes a 10-100 per cent charge to take three hours. Most other manufacturers quote a 0-100 per cent charge time, so we anticipate it’ll take around four hours to fully replenish a flat battery.

Model Battery sizeRangeInsurance group
E 300 e25.4kWh useable70 miles50
E 300 de25.4kWh useable67 miles50
AMG E 53 Hybrid25.4kWh useable59 miles50

Tax 

All versions of the E-Class are subject to the luxury car tax because all models costs over £40,000 when new. This means a surcharge will be added from the second time the vehicle is taxed until it is six years old. The plug-in hybrid models have a small £10 discount because of the plug-in hybrid system.

Company car tax will be significantly lower for plug-in models than regular petrol or diesel models. Choose the E 300 e, and you’ll be charged Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) at 5 per cent, while the E 300 de and AMG E 53 Hybrid models will be charged at 8 per cent.

Insurance groups

Insurance groups in the E-Class go from 41 for the entry-level petrol model up to a maximum of 50 for the E 300 e, E 300 de, E 450 d, and high-performance AMG E 53 model. The BMW 5 Series will be cheaper to insure, because that rival starts in group 35, and goes up to group 44 for the quickest 550e plug-in hybrid version.

Depreciation

According to our expert data, the Mercedes E-Class should hold its value as well as the BMW 5 Series, maintaining between 41 to 50 per cent of its original value after three years and 36,000 miles. The best version is the E 200 AMG Line, while the model that depreciates most is the AMG E 53 Hybrid Edition 1.

Interior, design & technology

The latest Mercedes E-Class isn’t a huge departure from the previous version in terms of exterior design, but Mercedes probably made the right call because it’s still a handsome, understated executive saloon. Under the skin, there’s loads of new tech, though.

All models have a 12.3-inch digital driver’s instrument cluster, and a 14.4-inch central touchscreen. The example in the pictures has the optional MBUX Superscreen that covers the entire dash, providing the passenger with an additional 12.3-inch display to access apps or watch a movie. It means that where there was once high-quality upholstery and easy-to-use buttons, there’s now just a huge screen. Some may love that, while others may hate it.

What is the Mercedes E-Class like inside?

The Mercedes E-Class still features excellent seats that are very comfortable and supportive, with all models including four-way electric lumbar adjustment. You will have to upgrade to the AMG Line Premium model to gain electric memory front seats. 

All the basic equipment you could need is included as standard, including climate control, smartphone connectivity, keyless go, sat-nav with live traffic info, and artificial leather upholstery called Artico. A natural leather alternative is available, while plusher Nappa Leather is reserved for Exclusive Premium Plus models.

What is the interior quality like?

The quality of the materials you can see is very good and build quality is excellent. The screens take up a lot of space on the dash, and the centre console is quite high up, so you feel quite cocooned as the driver.

Sat-nav, stereo and infotainment

The Superscreen in the E-Class is the headline event for the interior of the car. It’s not on every model - the standard set-up is a 14.4-inch central touchscreen - but even on cars without, the dash is clearly designed to accommodate it and looks quite bare if it’s not there.

The Superscreen costs around £1,500, and although we’re not huge fans of it, models without it look a little odd, so we’d probably still order it. It completes the look of the cabin, and allows passengers to use their own screen for music and apps. The pack even contains a camera on top of the dashboard for video conferencing and selfies.

The Superscreen set-up supplements a central display of 14.4 inches with a 12.3-inch passenger display. The driver shouldn’t be able to see the passenger screen as it has a ‘visual shield’ for safety to prevent them from being distracted while driving. Smartphone connectivity is standard in all versions of the E-Class, so you’ve got Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, even without the Superscreen option.

Boot space, comfort & practicality

The Mercedes E-Class comes with five seats, although the middle seat is only suitable for short trips. The outer seats are much more comfortable, and provide a little more legroom than its closest rival, the BMW 5 Series, although rear headroom could be better. Up front, the high centre console and supportive seats mean you feel enclosed as a driver and front passenger. Despite having a lower dashboard line than the electric Mercedes EQE, the E-Class doesn’t quite have as much forward visibility as the 5 Series.

Dimensions and size

The Mercedes E-Class is a big car at nearly 5m in length and 1.9m in width. However, being a saloon and not an SUV, it isn’t high off the ground, so it’s nice and easy to get into.

It’s virtually the same size as its closest rival, the BMW 5 Series. There are a few millimetres of difference here and there, but if you’re considering one of these two cars, then you can be sure the other isn’t significantly bigger or smaller

Dimensions
Length4,949mm (Exclusive Edition, 4,950mm AMG Line)
Width1,880mm (2,065mm inc mirrors)
Height1,461mm (AMG Line, 1,468mm Exclusive Edition)
Number of seats5
Boot space 370 litres (AMG E 53 Hybrid), 460 litres (E 300 e & E 300 de), 540 litres (E 200, E 220 d, E 450 d)

Seats & space in the front 

The front seats are comfortable and supportive, plus the driving position is very good too. It doesn’t feel hugely roomy up front thanks to the high centre console, but it’s a pleasant place to spend time and we’d be happy to spend a whole day driving the E-Class on a long trip.

Seats & space in the back

The latest Mercedes E-Class is a suitably big car and can take three across the back seat, although the middle passenger has to straddle a large central tunnel and a raised seating position, so they won’t want to be there for more than short trips. 

Fortunately, the outer positions provide more legroom than a BMW 5 Series. Rear headroom isn’t quite so good due to the sloping roofline of the saloon, but you can solve this by opting for the Mercedes E-Class Estate version. You can fit a child’s car seat in the outer rear positions using the easily accessible ISOFIX mounting points behind some rubber covers.

Boot space 

The petrol E 200 and diesel E 220 d and E 450 d models all have a spacious 540-litre boot. The narrower boot opening of a saloon body style means it’s harder to load taller items, but you can still fit a decent number of suitcases and bags in the back. If you need greater versatility, then you can always look at a Mercedes E-Class Estate instead.

However, the E 300 e, E 300 de and AMG E 53 models have a large battery pack on board, which reduces space down to a rather small 370 litres in the case of the high-performance AMG E 53 hybrid. That’s less than in a family hatchback like a Volkswagen Golf. What’s more, the plug-in models don’t have space below the boot floor for the charging cables, which means they have to live in a bag that takes up space in the already reduced luggage area. Not ideal for family holidays.

All versions come with a more versatile 40:20:40 split folding rear seat, so you can extend the luggage area if you need to carry longer items.

Reliability & safety

While the latest Mercedes E-Class is too new to have been included in the 2024 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey, the previous-generation E-Class came in 27th overall, which is a little behind its main rival, the BMW 5 Series (22nd), and the Mercedes brand didn’t fare all that well in the 2024 manufacturer’s poll, coming a disappointing 25th out of 32 brands included. 

Euro NCAP tested the E-Class in 2024 and gave it a five-star rating for safety. It scored 92 per cent in the Adult Occupant category and 90 per cent for children, plus an impressive 87 per cent score for safety tech. All results are superior to the 5 Series, making the E-Class a safe place to put your family.

The standard kit includes adaptive high beams, traffic sign assist, adaptive cruise control, parking assist, pedestrian protection and a reversing camera.

Key standard safety featuresEuro NCAP safety ratings
  • Five out of five stars (tested in 2024)
  • Adult occupant protection - 92%
  • Child occupant protection - 90%
  • Vulnerable road user protection - 84% 
  • Safety assist - 87%

Warranty

Mercedes offers a three-year warranty on all its cars, which is on par with the industry standard and its main rivals. If you want a longer warranty it’s best to choose a car from a manufacturer like Kia or Toyota, because these companies offer more than the basic three years of cover. At least the Mercedes warranty matches the BMW policy by offering unlimited mileage.

Servicing

All engines in the Mercedes E-Class require servicing every 15,500 miles.

Mercedes E-Class alternatives

As ever, the Mercedes E-Class is a direct rival for the Audi A6 and BMW 5 Series, as well as some left-field choices such as the Genesis G80. All are large executive cars and are aimed at wealthy private buyers and company car drivers looking for something ultra-comfortable, luxurious and still offers plenty of practicality and efficiency.

Within the Mercedes range, the E-Class sits between the smaller Mercedes C-Class and larger Mercedes S-Class saloon cars in terms of size and price. There’s also an electric car available that is in the same class as the E-Class called the Mercedes EQE, which is a rival for the BMW i5. Audi will soon launch a new electric A6 in this class, too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mercedes offers a three-year unlimited mileage warranty on all of the brand’s new cars.
