Used 2019 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Wagon Consumer Reviews
This is so much more functional than an SUV
Update. 95,000miles and still going strong. I get so many comments when I get out of my car, people think it is gorgeous. I hope I make it to 200,000. I bought the E wagon in 2019. Volvo wagons cost almost as much as Mercesdes so I made the switch, and I have older dogs who can’t get up in a SUV. Not that I liked SUV’s in the first place. This car is nothing short of perfection. Beyond comfortable, extended seats, great sight lines, beautiful interior, and my dogs can jump in! When Volvo bailed on wagons ( actually they still make one but it’s an SUV height- and the price increase was 30% ) my only option was Mercedes, Audi and BMW. The latter two are too small. I am SO HAPPY i bought this car, and so are my dogs! 7 months later after buying the car it’s still a 5 star! One last item, it does not come with a spare tire. My friend told me that, so if you’re doing any cross country driving you might want to buy one. Update. There’s no room for a spare tire, so you have to buy run flat tires. Don’t love them but don’t like sitting on the side of the road either. Update. Just turned 50,000 miles. Car is still wonderful. Just found out Mercedes discontinued the regular wagon for the United States in 2022. So I guess I’ll have to drive it till the wheels fall off. NO interest in the SUV height wagon. You buy a wagon because it’s NOT an SUV. Update. Just hit 60K miles. Still in love. But I am not in love with the Mercedes dealerships in Jacksonville FL. The Fields dealership. They own 35 dealerships in the United States. Stay away from them. They charged $831 for a B service. My dealer in St Paul MN charges $431 for the exact same thing. So beware of who you take it to. Best is to find a good mechanic outside of Mercedes dealers who works on Mercedes. But there isn’t a car on the road I would trade mine for. When I’m in the dealership, some of the sales people come out and say they can’t figure out why people don’t buy the wagon. Because people in the US are like sheep. Everybody buys the same thing. Cars, clothes, and on and on. Update 69K. Only thing I wish for is better navigation. You really have to use your phone. I heard navigation was finally updated in 2022

Best All Around Car Period.
My 2019 E450 wagon is without question the best car I've ever owned--taking into account S550 MB, E500 MB, Porsche 911, BMW 540I, an E350 MB wagon, and several others. The car is aesthetically beautiful, is extremely fun to drive with tight sporty handling and a great 3 liter twin turbo engine and 9 speed transmission that winds up and delivers lots of power whenever you want it--all with a great engine sound, and with really great fit and finish and build quality- the interior is very attractive and sporty with beautiful leather and wood and not a piece of that hard plastic material that ends up rattling especially on cold days anywhere. The interior is also very comfortable, very well designed with amazing safety and entertainment technology as well as ambient lighting. This is all not to mention the astounding practicality--- 7 passengers and a huge payload capacity. This car is perfect for loading up with mountain bikes or mulch and is also an elegant way to drive to a formal affair. Perfect.

From SL550 to E450 to E450 wagon
For the past few years, we have delighted in driving our R231 SL550. Such a great motorcar, yet not keeping pace with our lifestyle changes. Enter the 2019 E450 Cabriolet; what a car. Same motor, transmission and front brakes as the SL450, yet with a longer wheelbase, two more USEABLE seats and a much more modern interface system. Don't be fooled, this car will spool up to speed quite well, providing a most comfortable and useable interior. The noise level with the top up is surprisingly quiet, and with the top down, well, that's really why you buy it. Several thousand miles now, a couple of road trips and some great around town outings with friends, and this vehicle continues to impress. While I do miss the compelling torque of the SL550, this E450 can deliver performance in a most stylish way, and then get 30 mpg on the highway. Bloody marvelous motorcar. UPDATE: 12/21: The A238 E450 Cabriolet is a magical motorcar, however after the second repair to the cabriolet roof webbing / inner liner in less than a year, we made the decision to move on from the Cabriolet. As much as we loved the car, the long term ownership costs appeared too daunting for us. The Cabriolet was replaced with an S/W213 E450 wagon, which is our third Mercedes wagon, and simply a magnificent motorcar. Just back from a 1,400 mile jaunt to Road America; got 31.9 mpg at 78 mph average, and hauled everything we needed for a long weekend at the race track. Love the long roof! Update 2.0: still in the E450 4 matic wagon, and love the vehicle. Stylish, comfortable, such a great road car, and yet delivers really solid mileage. Sadly MB elected to forgo the Estate version of the wagon in the US and now sells the AT (all terrain) in it's place. We shall drive our estate version until it simply wears out. Stay tunded.

Underwhelmed
My E450 wagon looks nice. It is so overly complicated in using infotainment functions by having to scroll thru multiple menus to get what what you want that you have driven the car a distance without your attention paid to the act of driving. I counted 5 sub menus to get to be able to turn off the traction control when other brands in this category have a hard button on the instrument panel. I also don't know why a company which prides itself on safety has a windshield wiper control which requires you to fully take one hand off of the steering wheel to activate it. I'm disappointed with my purchase and suggest customers shopping this brand critically examine the features and see if they agree with them.

E450 wagon
Could be greatest car i have owned. If you were going to drive one car from coast to coast it's the Benz wagon hands down.
