The overview

The redesigned E-Class midsized luxury sedan coddles occupants with a comfortable ride and quiet cabin, yet its agile handling makes this stately sedan fun to drive. The base turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the E350 we tested gets a mild-hybrid system that returned a commendable 28 mpg overall. Other than an annoying initial delay of power caused by the engine stop/start system, we found this to be a strong and polished powertrain. A more powerful turbo six-cylinder comes in the E450 4Matic model. Both are mated to a smooth-shifting nine-speed automatic transmission. The swanky cabin is swathed in stitched leather, muted chrome, and matte-finish wood. The front seats are comfortable and the rear seat offers decent room for two adults. Most controls remain complicated and distracting, however; even simple tasks, such as adjusting the audio volume via touch-capacitive sliders, are a chore. A plug-in hybrid and All Terrain wagon version are new for 2025.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
