2017 Mercedes E-Class vs. 2014 E-Class

What the E-class lacks in sportiness, it makes up for with a great ride,
style, and comfort. Engine choices include a 195-hp turbodiesel four, a
302-hp V-6, or a 329-hp twin-turbo V-6. Rear-wheel drive is standard
and all-wheel drive is optional. Coupes and convertibles get the 329-hp
V-6 or a 402-hp twin-turbo V-8 (all-wheel drive is optional for the V-6
coupe), while the wagon offers only the 302-hp V-6 with all-wheel drive.
An all-new E-class goes on sale in July 2016.



 The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-class is the result of what we imagine is the most extensive face-lift in the history of the brand. This mid-term make over packs a considerable amount of new technology under significantly restyled sedan and wagon bodies. But a nip and tuck as extreme as anything seen in any plastic surgeon’s office wasn’t unwarranted given the number of redesigned competitors in the mid-size luxury-sedan segment. The Audi A6, the BMW 5-series, and the Lexus GS all are still quite fresh, and the next-gen Cadillac CTS—larger and more upscale than ever—will be here before you know it.
