2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class - Mercedes-Benz Manhattan

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class has been named the MotorTrend 2021 Car of the Year! It is a stunning mid-cycle refresh from Mercedes-Benz. Highlights include revised styling, a new inline-6 engine, and the All-Terrain (a wagon available exclusively as an E 450 4MATIC®). The coupe and cabriolet also have significant updates for 2021, as do the AMG® performance models. In an industry that has seen demand lean towards SUVs in recent years, the E-Class presents a refreshing upgrade in styling, features, and performance. The result is guaranteed to make potential buyers take a closer look at this luxury car which delivers on multiple fronts.

The design team has gone above and beyond to deliver a stunning package across the entire family based on the same powerful platform. The sedan, coupe, and wagon perform exceedingly well while sporting features targeting potential owners with very different needs. From family trips to navigating backcountry roads, the E-Class family has something for everyone.  The stylish design is paired with top of the line performance. The E 350 Sedan continues to be powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission (standard across the E lineup), and available both with rear- or all-wheel drive. The E 450 Sedan, E 450 All-Terrain, E 450 Coupe, and E 450 Cabriolet are all powered by a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 engine. The AMG® E 53 uses an enhanced 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 engine, also in an AWD. This model is available as a sedan, coupe, or cabriolet. At the top of the E-Class lineup is the E 63 S (available as a wagon or sedan). Mercedes claims the E 63 S sedan can do 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds, while the wagon is clocked at 3.4 seconds. This is very impressive for a luxury sedan and stands unmatched in its category.

The 2021 E-Class delivers this top of the line performance without compromising on safety or comfort. The E-Class comes with Pre-Safe, Pre-Safe Sound, and Driver Assistance Packages which aim to keep the driver and passengers safe in the event of a collision. Mercedes-Benz has always epitomized classiness and the E-Class does not disappoint. The styling and refinement exude old school luxury balanced beautifully with state of the art technology upgrades guaranteed to turn heads.

All in all the E-Class delivers luxury with performance in a stylish package which the three-pointed-star has come to symbolize. The E-Class is a solid, refined, and much-needed revision that truly outshines the competition.
