2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Review - Dublin, OH

 Performance

Mercedes-Benz has always considered E-Class performance as going hand-in-hand with luxury appointments, rock-solid reliability and world-class dealer service. The E-Class vehicle lineup is also broad and offers a range of executive cars that come in a number of engine and body configurations. Performance-wise, the 2017 E-Class sees major engine updates that will deliver inline-6 cylinder engines, a switch from the previous generation's V-6 engines. The inline-6 is but one engine choice, though, as Mercedes plans to offer additional four cylinder diesel engines as well as gasoline-burning four-cylinder power plants. Performance numbers as well as the expected fuel economy are expected to be excellent, and the E-Class will send its occupants down the road in quick fashion.

 Interior

For 2017, the latest E-Class will borrow interior styling cues from two other cars in the German automaker's stable, the smaller C-Class and the larger S-Class. Overall, the leather-swaddled E-Class cabin will deliver outstanding reductions in interior noise, vibration and harshness due to additional sound-deadening materials as well as chassis and frame stiffening. Dials, buttons and other surfaces will be pleasing to the touch as well as falling easily at hand. Mercedes-Benz intends its new E-Class to provide a comfy, relaxing respite from the long commutes many customers report they make.

 Features

Though both vehicles offer several advanced safety features, including ABS, traction control, emergency service, airbag deployment notification, stability control, and more, helping you keep your investment safe with an extra security feature: vehicle alarm notification. Keep up to speed with the state of your vehicle even when it's parked a distance away from you and enjoy the benefits of alarm notification - you'll be able to have more confidence in the security of the vehicle, letting you focus on your own life and devote attention where you want to do so.

 Safety

Mercedes-Benz vehicles are renowned for their safety and the 2017 E-Class is no different. Advanced headlights on the 2017 model feature 84 individually controlled LEDs, for one. Safety systems, including anti-collision, anti-roll, braking control, blind-spot detection and a large number of airbags, will be a part of the E-Class environment. Combined, the diverse systems will make the E-Class safer than ever.
