Got the 2 door coupe. Beautiful car inside and out that is really fun to drive. Great tech that isn't difficult to use. Good gas mileage with the eco-boost. Plenty of pep with the turbo-charged inline 6

The new redesign made the new E class the best looking midsoze luzuary car. I used to own a c63s Amg and I was surprised how peppy the new 450 engine was.

From Toyota to the E-Class

2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 350 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

I am sure it is easy to be impressed going from a Toyota to a MB E-Class. I keep my vehicles for 9+ years before I move on to a new vehicle. Toyota reliability is why I have been buying Toyotas since 1975. Now it is time for us to move up to a quiet, comfortable sedan. I have spent a year reviewing articles for "quiet" cars. I thought my research would have me in a Lexus ES (Hybrid). We drove the Genesis G-90, (nice car, but huge) then the Lexus ES. The Lexus dealer told us the ES was their quietest vehicle since the GS had been discontinued for 2021. We were very disappointed with the ES. It had the typical wind noise we lived with in our Toyotas. We were very disappointed. The interior was OK for top of the line Avalon, but not for a $55k luxury vehicle. I succumbed to realizing our search would probably lead us into the German luxury segment. We made an appointment to test drive a 2020 E Class E-350. My wife and I were halfway into our test drive and talking about how the E-350 met our needs. The vehicle is a service loaner with 5k miles on the odometer. The dealer made a satisfactory offer on the vehicle and we drove it home the next day. I am not too sad we didn't get to the Audi A6 and the BMW series, but we knew we had found our car. We have now had it two weeks and added several hundred miles and we are continuing to learn more about the capabilities available in the digital programs. What I like about the vehicle is the quiet, comfortable ride, the Burmester sound system and the 12.3" multimedia system to control nearly every system in the vehicle (including the ability to operate it from the steering wheel).

Worst Car I have ever owned.

I am 71 years old and have purchased many cars in my life. As a special treat for my retirement I leased a high end Mercedes E450 (MSRP over $80,000). Took three trips with the car, broke down each time. When I hit 70 mph, it felt like I was driving a school bus. The one time I took it to service they fixed the transmission. The next time they said it was the wheels (paid $600 to have wheels straightened and that did no good. Finally, they said it was the tires. I had already changed the run flat tires two times because of bubbles in them. It got to the point where I was afraid of driving it. And then, to top it all off, the lease-end process was a complete nightmare. They clearly raked me over the coals. This was the worst car I have ever owned and the worst car buying experience. Buyer beware!

UPDATE: I got rid of this car after about seven months. The technology was just too much a pain in the neck. Far too many functions are controlled by either the touch screen or touch buttons on the steering wheel. The Hot Spot Drive internet connection never worked properly...and Hot Spot convinced me the problem was with the car, not their network. Mercedes was either unhelpful or downright unresponsive in dealing with this issue. I finally asked myself why should I continue to own a rapidly depreciating asset that gave me far more frustration than pleasure. I gladly sold it back to another Mercedes dealer...substantial loss, of course, but better than had I grtted my teeth with it for another year or two. I replaced it with a 2013 W221, the S550, for half the price. And it's easily twice the car. All real steering wheel buttons, no touch buttons. No annoying touch screen. The car's ride, handling, and power are all superb. Now...here's my earlier review of the miserable 2022 E450: The superlatives about the car's ride, handling, power train, and overall quality are spot on. Nothing new to add. But the technology (MBUX etc) presents a very, very steep learning curve for those who are not really comfortable with touch screens et all, primarily older people, I suspect. Despite careful study, I haven't been able to figure out the navigation system or the voice commands. Sometimes stuff works and sometimes it doesn't. The owners manual is all but worthless...full of what are probably government-mandated warnings and cautions...but very light on specific operating instructions for these complex systems. So if you're an older buyer and want a magnificent driving, riding, handling car that is beautifully designed and built...go ahead...have kind of a final blowout automotive fling ...but expect a lot of frustration and annoyance with the touch screens, touch pads, fussy steering wheel buttons, etc. Maybe I should go back to a W126 diesel! Or...forget about the technology and just enjoy driving the car. Mercedes pretty much dumped the telematic features on my 2016 W212...so in five or six years they'll probably drop the MBUX system in favor of something better. My W212 still ran like a top, however, so the new W213 probalby will too.
