Such a long and storied heritage for the mid size #MercedesBenz saloon. Arguably their most popular segment, it’s always been modern, but traditional #Mercedes too - serving everyone from the businessman, to the taxi driver, to the performance car driver. And our new #EClass is aiming even higher - and today we will see how it drives in this new W214 Gen!!
Today we drive the E450 4matic 6 cylinder car! It’s a 400bhp very mild hybrid that is the cream of the crop for E class, including air suspension, AND give us some idea about future AMGs, which I have some updated news about - got a bit of a surprise in terms of sports sound that I can’t wait to show!!
We’ll also have a go in a plug-in hybrid which is massively more useful in this gen - we will drive the E300e 4Matic Plug in! It features 313HP and more crucially - 100KM of electric only range from the 25.4KW battery! I’ll also go over the other model variants such as the E200, E200d, and E400e Plug in.
In terms of design, we are going to go through all the main specs today including the Classic S Class style grille design, AMG line, and the main paint and wheel options - as how you spec this car can vary the look massively.
Today we will also check out the newly unveiled E Class Estate or Wagon model! It is now designed more as a shooting brake, while maintaining the boot space of the previous model. It looks stunning with the larger 21 inch wheels in arctic grey - and we will check out the boot space of the plug in version of this too. It’s slightly heavier by about 80KG, and does not get the rear wheel steer like the saloon - but it does get aromatic suspension on the rear axle as standard.
We will go over the Suspension - you get either steels or you can the technology package as an option. All-round AIRMATIC air suspension system with ADS+ continuously adjustable damping and rear-axle steering 4.5 degrees.
The interior is next level - I hated the photos but in reality it’s probably the best Mercedes has made. The new “Superscreen” is a reduced hyper screen, with a dedicated driver zone screen, and a much lower sportier “floating” dash. The interior has amazing things like digital air vents, dolby atmos, Passenger screen blocking function, a voice assistant that’s always on, and some of the most stunning ambient lighting you’ll ever see.
Then we will discuss AMG - apparently the E53 will come with a 6 cylinder this time! Hurray!! It will look awesome, and come in both wagon and saloon. We will also discuss the E63’s future.
Today we explore:
- Saloon Exterior Design AMG Line
- New E Class Estate
- Suspension
- Engine Options - Mild Hybrid or Plug in
- New AMG E53 6 Cylinder Render and details
- AMG E63 future?
- Interior review

Honestly, this E-class is absolutely stunning.
no.
sorry but i dont see any design-synergys at the rear, in addition to fake vents. stunning is something different for me.
Blind ey
It is!
Tacky taillights and horrible fake exhausts. Truly stunning...
This episode was class just like the w214! Fine job mate🔝
Mercedes does it again design wise 😍 also open the panoramic roof for the shots outside
U must be a female. This car looks feminine af. Espicially compared to a blacked out 5 series. The new BMW 5 looks like a big bulky BMW muscle car. This looks tiny and not aggresive at all.
Looks like a 3 series bmw...Same copied headlights too
@@pete64041 makes no sense.. nothing to do with the 3 series
@@mss531 Pull up a 2019 3 series or 5 series and look at the headlights and design...They are exactly the same lol
@@pete64041 yeah like i dont know how a 3 series and a 5 series look 😂
Really grateful for the info at 20:43 I was put off by the passenger screen but that ambient lighting option completely fixes the issue. New E53 really has my attention
Beautiful cars. Stunning and very detailed review.
Excellent review and I agree on all your comments on the exterior & interior design as well as the 450 ( my choice model) comments. I am concerned though at these new touch screen controls and the lack of attention on the road. Just too much reading to adjust a setting like the A/C for example.
You can say hey Mercedes turn up or down the air/ heat. I have the E450 2024 model
Beautiful car, and this is the best and most comprehensive video about the E Class I've seen. You always do the best videos!
Thank you! 🙏
@@RemoveBeforeRaceWhen do you think that AMGs are coming I’m pretty hyped??
@@Hi-how-are-you-today. Hopefully they don't go the 4 cylinder route like the c class lol
@@pete64041 they better not
Great review. Beautiful car!
Looks so good this new gen, really a very handsome design
Thank you for this detailed review. When you sit in it, you feel how special this car is.
Glad you do these reviews, as watching you I get a “heads up” before my official MB training courses
😉
As I've said on every youtube video on this in the last few days, Elegance is back in style at MB E.
King of E series! 👌👍👍👍
My dream car 😩🙏🏾 The exclusive trim😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Would be nice to hear what configuration you would go with, options to avoid / must haves etc
Dude I just wanna say that when I saw the new E-Class I didn’t know what to think. Now that I am seeing the wagon, I am really loving it.
The size of the engine seems irrelevant these days. For most vehicles, it's the size of the screen and number of screens that count.
I must say , you are one of the best car reviewer that I seen on CZcams. Great history and tech info on each car. Have you done the Genesis G80 ?
Tremendous review of all the models and variants; hope the T-Model estate will make it to North America…some of us still love them..!
The newest E-Class looks like a hit!
I really love they still going on traditional mode with E class, this is Mercedes essence!
Looks great. The only thing on the interior which I wish they had done was to make the door trim where the window switches are on the same as what's in the Centre console. Now that part is silver, the Centre console part is wood and the part with the seat controls is gloss black. It's too many different trims and it clashes. To my eye it is very frustrating. The previous model's Centre trim went in to the doors. Now, no matter what Centre trim you get, the doors are the same across all models. I think cost cutting. But it should be an option at least to make them match.
Just when you get used to the previous model / facelift (the E that has the narrow rear lights like current C), another one comes out lol. Time flies I guess. Been at least two years right?
I was waiting for this episode from you. Thanks 😊
This E class looks better then new BMW I5
Great review, very comprehensive and balanced. It will be interesting to see how it fairs on UK roads and if the road noise is as well suppressed on our typical rough tarmac. My 2018 E350e does not do very well on these types of surfaces, so hopefully we will notice an improvement in NVH.
Personally I would not get the hybrid again (unless I was a company car driver of course, which I was back in 2018) even though this one now has a big range, because it just feels so heavy, and despite all- round air suspension it struggles to disguise the battery weight over the rear axle on anything other than very smooth, straight roads. This new hybrid is going to be even heavier so I doubt that that feeling will go away. Plus the high load-rated rear tyres on these hybrids (which are a different size to the fronts as well) don't last long, cost a small fortune and are never in stock at garages, which is a right pain if you get a puncture.
change your tires. If an E class doesnt bode well with your roads, nothing will.
@@AI-qd4vb I changed them for less sporty touring tyres when the originals wore out, but they actually made it slightly worse. I think you are probably correct in that if the E class can't be quiet on UK roads then nothing except maybe a Rolls Royce is going to make any significant difference. I will test drive the new E class though!
Love this car. The best sedan
Is the progressive sound Option available with every engine?
taillights remind me of the S-coupe from a few years back. Lovely
Is the 2024 E450 petrol available in the UK?
I can't find the car you've reviewed anywhere. Even when I go to the official merc website to build one, they only show the E450d as the 3.0L engines.
Love this new E class!!
I Need your help to make a decision this Friday. I have watched all your reviews on the 2024 e class. Which would you take, btw the e300e and the e450 ? Also estate or saloon?
I think I would keep the passenger screen and use the Mercedes stars as screen saver 😂 . do u think the pas screen has a way to display a desktop background of some sort.i would think so.......
another question
do the brumster speakers twist out and light up like the s class?????
Another great vid. Thanks
Nice car too!
Nice teleport😄
How did u make that wallpaper?
Anyone know how the rear camera is deployed?
The wagon, the wagon, the wagon, the wagon, the wagon, the wagon, the......😍😁👍🏾
Hi, where did you shoot this video? Which city?
well i'm convinced...aim for a latest. E class ..this car will do me just fine😅😅
Such a comprehensive review. Can’t wait to be able to order this in ‘24.
Taking delivery of my new E300 AllTerrain in two weeks. I loved my old -22 but this is in an entirely different class all together…
What about the other varient which look exactly like sclass
Love the classic design, question, what is the square plastic in the middle of the grill?, really sticks out, don’t like it at all
Merc never fails to disappoint me.. they always manage to fxxp up the E class.
I give u the f word pass
I want the old exterior with the new interior
You missed the W123 the greatest mid size sedan M B made that sold all over the world and still runs
Will the upcoming wagon be E63 or E53?
Why does the Uk not get classic grille?
Nice review !
I am in love with the BMW 5 Series G30, both before and after the facelift. However, after the release of the new model of BMW 5 G60, I have to admit that the Mercedes looks so much better.
This looks exactly like the G30...lol
@@pete64041 No it doesn't
@@TonyStone3000 Look up a 2018 g30 and look at the headlights to the shape...Same
Roken got the amg version spot on
The E63 version will be insane. Great interior on this combined with great power!
But unfortunately, it will be Phev with R6 engine.
@@p0sitiv467 As long as it's not the I4. Not saying the I4 is bad but, decreasing from V8 to I4 is too much😂
There wont be no E63, hence there was the Final Edition!!!
@@nun_nuno I think it is going to be 6 cylinders.
@@izmirdikili8069 the final edition is for w213 gen
So the tail lights hangin out of the actual body of the car looks off only to me?
what is the background music of this video, anybody knows?
I was choosing the interior didn’t see that option for leather
Great review young man. I also agree we are sleep walking into an Electric car nightmare !
What is the equivalent on a Lexus for E class?
Is this color alpine grey ? 6:18
Can’t wait for the CLE Driving review🤩
Beautiful. Wagon please. 14:31
With that level of tech I can confidently say that dealing with road surfaces in the US market will be sublime. Especially the in cabin insulation
German car tech of the last, say, 10-15 years is notoriously unreliable. And just bad. Rather go and buy yourself any Japanese cheap car, it will perform better than any of Mercedes or BMW models. These cars are designed to make you pay a massive amount of money for them only to break down soon so that you go and pay another massive amount of money for the repair, and so continuously. It's a "wealthy idiot" trap
theyve always had best in class cabin insulation. Their issues are more the creeks and crickets inside the cabin due to all the extravagant shapes they use for their cabins
Looks great.
absolutely
This is love
The next S Class will be off the scale if this is anything to go by
cool

Awesome and thorough review as always but what I found more interesting is whats on Raz’ wrist; that new IWC Ingeneur looks MEGA in real life!
I own a 2020 Lexus ES. I'll be waiting for the face left in 3-5 years and get one 👌🏽
Firmly believe an E-Class should have a proper star on the hood.
So we're being deprived of the classier front end again!?
That does NOT sound like an E53 AMG at all imo. But yea cool for them to add the toggle for the progressive sound
Really reaching with the E53 sound. Lool
@@romainebryan4839extremely. And the E53 doesn't even sound that aggressive anyway, hardly a major compliment. #reaching
@@ahemgee9542 he’s just a MB salesman and you can’t even be angry with him. He needs to tell then get rid of the silly fake exhausts. They’re quite distasteful
@@ahemgee9542 hmm Im not sure I’d completely agree with that. I have had the pleasure of driving it on track and for a road trip and the noise is pretty loud for a Six cylinder. Also the pops and bangs 🤪
I do think that there aren’t very many good videos about it on CZcams and not a lot of sound in the ones that are indeed on here
Ain’t that color Alpine Grey, instead of Arctic grey?
Love the graphics.
If MB develop an all-terrain version, that would be so good.
I`ve seen the new e class a few days ago in Vienna and it looks stunning. Very good in person
Very nice but why are Mercedes so slow to get new products on their configurator?
FYI, the new E-Class Avant does have rear-axle steering as an option !
The design kinda looks like the Audi A6 in black edition spec from some angles. Lovely car this! 👌
Mercedes should concentrate on hybrid. Plug in hybrid makes it heavier. Buttons missing. Not too sure about this.
very pretty wagon! not sure about the 21 inch fitment though? Looks a bit too inset but that might be a perspective thing on camera :)
Also love the noise!!!
Yeah I was thinking the same thing, it looks like the viewing angle isn't perpendicular to the surface of the screen, unless it's a very short person. Could be that they designed to screen to compensate for this. I don't think it's the camera angle. Not sure though
The rear end is unbelievable, such a good upgrade. Didn't think the pervious gen was any good.
Looks like an A class sedan
@@bnkhIt really does not
@@vickerydde8804 really does
@@bnkhblind
I think you're the only person in the world thinking that 😂
Nice improvements but they still haven't done proper bag holders in the boot
This is a solid upgrade! They really need to figure out what they are doing with the electric versions!
Awesome benz, great video....that "i learn" was cool/creepy kkkkl
I liked BMWs but now with this car I am really loving the Merc
Belisimo
Ranger raptor V6 patrol please
The lack of manual dashboard controls is a shame.
Thank you for self driving part in video!
great car, if Mercedes would finally release the pricing and enable the configurator - it's been announced / soft released for months now, but not able to configure it
Agreed!!! MBUSA has been such a drag lately….. losing the excitement fast
They should offer the Elegance version in the UK too! Where do they offer it? Great review!
German market for sure
@@trut52 can't find it. Not US either.
Great review, but I will never accept artificial car noises pumped into the cabin. Sorry. Not with you there! :)
Exclusive Line > AMG Line
That car with its spec is amazing probably the best looking regular e ever
"I learn"😅the car is talking back👌❤️
Ooh this might entice me out of a 5 series the interior is on another level, its quality
Great looking sedan, especially the rear 3/4 view. Nobody styles sedans like the germans.
A.I... She said, I LEARN. Just hope that one day she doesn't learn to run you off of a CLIFF. 😂😂😂
the stars everywehre might be an overkill
How would you guys spec it?!?
I think I’d go for a spec similar to the one here but with the smaller screen inside
We need this E-class at Coupe!
