Words John Clark April 30, 2013

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class comes in several different shapes, sizes and engine options.  To make it easier on you, we’ve broken down the technical specs of the different E-Class models as well as included a complete photo gallery and video compilation for your viewing pleasure.  The only question left is, which E-Class would you choose?

The new E-Class makes a lasting impression and sometimes offers new views for the future. In this spot the ride in the new E-Class becomes a significant experience for a young hitchhiker.

The best things in life are often unexpected. In that case, you sometimes have to look twice. Good to know, that the new e-class detects cross-traffic hazards. With Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive it can support a driver in moments of distraction.
