I have the 17 e300 rwd with 110k miles bought it with 25k miles still going strong. Love my E class.
This one is a definite upgrade to the previous ones. This is my 3rd E class. I custom ordered mine so I was able to get exactly what I want and not have to pay for what I don't want. I have the P3 with the dual 12.3 widescreen. The dual screen is a HUGE difference in the interior look of this vehicle. The displays are amazing. If you are able to, without question get it!
Overall this car is a nice ride. Interior is well designed and offers plenty of room. The drive is smooth, quiet and handles really well. The dynamic seat feature where the seat fills with air on the opposite side of your turn keeping you in center position is awesome. People knocking the 4-cyl are most likely ones that don't own this vehicle and haven't spent much time with it. Fact is this car moves. This has more power and secondary torque than the previous ones and more than most in its class. The engine might run slightly noisier than others, but not too noticeably. You have to really be looking for it.
Where this car can improve is actually on it's technology believe it or not. While marketed as the most technologically advanced vehicle, it simply isn't. The autonomous driving is iffy at best. While on the freeway it will go out of well marked lanes quite often even as it's showing onscreen that it recognizes the lanes. The parking pilot misses available spots quite often rendering this feature not too useful. The remote start is absolutely useless. If you do research you'll see several MB customers are having issue with remote start. Interesting how such a long time high end auto manufacturer can't develop a reliable remote start system/app while pretty much every auto manufacturer out there has one that works near flawlessly. How does this happen?
Anyway, just my experience after having this vehicle for a couple months.
nasafan2008 k
E class interior is the best in class. Would love to pick one up after about 3 yrs
@A V how many miles is that and recommended?
A V don’t get the 4matic man
André Blackaller why not?
Vladimir Vasquez it’s exponentially more expensive to keep
A V haha me too
The E-Class is a great car with so many amenities. I truly love my E300!!!
See ur face my servant has better face than you and people like you are having mercedes undeserving bastard
Impressive review. I usually only watch Micah's reviews, This guy is getting better and better. :D
E class, 5 series, ES, CTS, XF, G80 etc., so many choices....think of these as 3 yr old off lease deals, great stuff.
I always go with MB CPO, throw in another $2K and you get total of 4 years of factory warranty, great deal.
93455Driver the lexus gs not the es
Good point.
One of the few times I enjoyed the comedy in a car review video. Well done!
I miss the back lights on the old E-class 😭😭
You are amazing at these reviews! I subbed
What a beauty.
You guys are simply amazing! So professional. I will disagree on the engine noise note. I had this car as a loaner a couple of weeks ago, and although it doesn't behave like a 4 cylinder it does have a pretty cheap sound when you stand next to it. All that aside it is an AMAZING sedan!
😅
The backup camera clip had me in stitches
hahaha 6:30
I'm a chauffeur and I drive a 2018 Mercedes e 200cdi and spending ton of time driving it I'd say it is wonderful! Only con is that pairing your phone is a bit too complicated. I'm an Audi guy, but I'd rather get this than the new A6.
i cant wait for the coupe to come out :O, it will b stunning.
I'm in the 2004 E-class, love it
When the e class is better than Lincolns flagship
Michael Taffe i think the Continental is a mid size luxury just like the E class
Michael Taffe and when Lincolns flagship cost 10-11k less than the e class and has similar features
sevan grigoryan It's the quality of the features that makes a difference. A Lincoln may for example have a reverse camera but the quality if the image it displays sucks. It's not always about the amount of features but the quality of them which is why it costs more here.
I could not disagree more!
Shiraz A me too I actually did buy one and don’t regret it
I'm not a MB fan at all, but this is a beast!
You didn't storm off into a random paddock out Woop-Woop at the end like that Kia Optima video 😂 😛 - kidding, your reviews are always a good watch 😁
I like your reviews
I cannot agree both the new e or c class are good looking cars, the s class looks gorgeous tough.
제가 몰랐던 벤츠 기능을 배우고 갑니다~~좋은 정보 감사합니다~~^^구독 하고 가겠습니다 다시 들리겠습니다~~화이팅입니다
Quick question. When will the review for the 2017 Toyota Highlander be released?
Hey ohhh Newport Beach!
We have made a leather wrap around product that covers all of the rear bumper of E300 and prevents paint scratch and minor dents.
Zero to 60 numbers would be nice. Also mpg numbers on all engines choices.
Saw some familiar streets in Corona del Mar and Newport Coast where these cars are seen daily.
Ford Fusion Sport....LMFAO. That was just great.
wonderful car!
It sucks that 4Matics of any class are so hard to come by in California. They practically have to order them specifically for you. Looking to get this E300 4Matic, great review!!
Brilliantly executed video, except for the image of the Mercedes C class instead of the hybrid Mercedes E class.
I still prefer the look of the pre facelift w212.
Dam that interior though makes it worth it
4:59, that's a C class.
You sure are right! I didn't even notice because all of the new Mercedes-Benzes look so similar to me.
Can you do more reviews in Newport Beach?
Do a midsize luxury sedan comparison test!!
Fun review
Just hoping to see 2017 Mercedes e43 review
anxious to see what the coupe looks like ????
I must have this E class!
We have a 2020 E350. E350 has more power and torque than E300. I love ❤️ both cars ... very smooth ride
I love my 2019 version
Can y'all review the 2017 Nissan Altima 3.5 Sl please kbb
Love the this non touch screen! Many people just cannot handle something as complicated as a touch screen operation. It took me over 6 months to actually do a "touch" on the screen. Mercedes did a good job of simplifying the operations of the LED screen and eliminating the "touch" in the screen.
What is the music underlying the video? From 0:03
So they added that weird purple glass in the windshield that S-Classes and Bentleys have huh? I like it. It screams fancy. Anybody know what that is?
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU
Car is amazing
anyone knows whats the background music of the video PLZ~~~?
My cousin haves one just like this. She's so lucky.
What kind of steering wheel? Electric or power?
Compare 2018 Honda Accord 2.0 T
What you think???
This car is really awesome...bit when you look at the side view of the car., you will notice the bonnet is bit long and that makes it kinda awkward
The E class is nice 241 hp not bad for a 4 cylinder though and a 2 litre engine
Wait... Mercedes does what to the steering wheel? They tilt it to the left??? For what reason?
That back up camera though.
Nice car... but didn't see it a lot in LA... not selling? I think I've only seen it 2 times on the road.
"You are wrong." I liked that.
what song was playing at the beginning of this video 😬
The best car I love Mercedes
Nice car
Which trim model is this??
Why is Mercedes making all there cars look like the s class it's getting repetitive 😑
Michael Grant because it's nice? Duh, why all BMW looks same ok it's front. Same question
bmw front, acura front metal thing, lexus same grill on many new models, etc etc
Yeah thats why I don't wanna buy a mercedes. There design needs to be different
Michael Grant Mercedes always made very similar looking klasses
If you look at the Nissan Maxima from the front. All these cars are looking all the same. Also, did you notice the plastic chicken wire grill and fake plastic inlets on the front bumpers. Why do this?
why do they tilt the steering wheel?
What song is used in this video?
Looks more like a c class than an s class to me.
Edgar Ruiz agreed, except the C-class looks better in top trim.
There were times when one could tell which mercedes is which , just by looking at it. Now they all look alike.
AKASH SINGH The fronts of BMW looks the same too. The back of most Audi's look same too. The body style of lexus looks same too.
Alanex Knight True that.
Doesn’t matter you can’t afford it ha
@@alanexknight9810 no Lexus makes their little differences. I can definitely tell an IS, ES, GS, LS..
Maybe I'm missing something , but the Lincolns seem just as good or better.
I like this Car too it's called Mercedes Benz E Class🚘😎👫🇩🇪
similar to maybach what a beautiful.
As im driving it now im watching this vedeo E300 AMG
Did you say 7 Passenger Wagon?
Viewers, please do not opt for the air suspension, you will spend more time in the shop than on the road if you do
“Don’t you tired of being wrong all the time”?
Me - “Yes”.
The nudge of Noir
Those headlights I am saying are sexy and the tail lights
It's true that the interior of the E Class tops the interiors of the Jaguar XJ and Lexus LS, but let's not forget, both of them are REALLY OLD.
The Jaguar XJ is close to being 9 years old, and the essentially mechanically unchanged since 2006. 10 years!
review the e63
l Love to Mercedes its osome......
Would buy this used now if it had a V6.
fuck that. go big, or go home. S Class all the way.
everyone complaining about the engine it's the base its get the base engine like the bwm 528i if you want a higher engine get a higher trim!
There's so many e class cars it's confusing
do the wagon
I'm pretty disappointed there is not mention of the Volvo S90 in the list of competitive vehicles. It doesn't carry the same stigma these cars do, is equal in terms of build quality and equipment offerings, has a more intuitive and attractive interior, and last but not least offers a significantly better value for money than all of the competition. Yet it still isn't even an after thought in this video. What am i missing?
Charles Erickson Don't cry bro. Volvo has a long way to go to establish their brand in the luxury market. Don't get me wrong, i love them and am waiting for the next gen V40. But this is only the first time Volvo has properly stepped in the luxury segment. If you wanna argue, go ahead.
Because Vovlo is for boring old people.
I bet you've never set foot on a new S90. Yes on video and on paper it does look like a great car/bargain, but not in real life.
So I went to the Volvo dealer and tried a fully speced S90. Sorry but the interior is INFERIOR to the E Class which I drive daily. Not the actual design which is actually very nice, more modern, but the materials used. they feel A LOT MORE flimsy, cheaper, less solid than those on the E Class.
Which is why they are now offering a 20% discount on the S90 already !!
5 Series and E Class are just tough tough opponents in the category.
The S90 is not selling as well as they expected it. Their SUV and crossovers yes.
Don't get me wrong, it is a very nice car, just not for the 60k € price they're asking. 45-48k €...yeah maybe for some.
Rented a fully loaded S90 in LA. Interior and exterior are 10/10, better than every other brand. BUT, the ride quality was extremely spongy and floaty, in a nauseating way. Would not buy the s90 over the e class
I find the Mercedes interior nicer than Volvo’s. And if we’re going to include Volvo then we need to make mention of the Cadillac CT6
luxurious and nice car..!!! decent price for technology and luxury.
however, i couldnt afford the service every year..2k to 3k a year? just a service check..come on MERC
Hmmm, the mid 90s early to mid 2000 E-classes were stylish and unique ! The exterior looks too similar to the C-Class. The interior looks awesome however and more than makes up for the exteriors play dough look !!
I like Mercedes Benz
ready to glare
in 2 years it will sell for $25k or less. never ever will I buy a brand new car.
Smart
Dont think so is price high
It’s been 2 years and there selling in the $50k range I might buy one at an amazing deal half the price of msrp
Platinum Gaming you can now easily find one for less than 30k
Only millionaires with disposable income buy brand new. They like to be the first and only owner
Last gen was a better looker.
Joshua Adams Thank You!
But the front and interior wise.... i think we can agree its amazing!
This is the best looking one. /until this model, i was not that much into Mercedes, but now i have completely changed my mind.
it looks like a taxi
Carly Schultz no it doesn't
5:00 that’s a c class not an e class
I learned a long time ago, touch screens in cars are unnecessary and sometimes pointless because in order to use it, you have to look at it, which takes your eyes off the road. I don't care for touch screens in cars. #Tesla
Kevbox2008 Apple car play and Android auto suck without a touch screen
They can put the car on self drive so you can do on the screen what you want
I’ve seen this car on the road, and every time I confuse it for a smaller S class. Seems kind of lazy for all their sedans to look very similar.
You forgot to mention this vehicle required run flat and it will cost you $1500+ to replaced. I know, I just paid for it at discount tires.
the sunlight getting through the shade is a deal breaker for me.... no one wants stripe tan lines across the face
This guy obviously just smoked a HUGE joint
i can see how that little bit of sun getting through the roof being really annoying daily.
Newport Beach
The new e63s for me is the perfect car
Most rich people that I know of lease them cause there very expensive to fix if they break down
