I have a 2014 E250 Bluetec Diesel with 105K on it and the car is still so smooth and works wonderfully! I have toyed with getting a Tesla or another electric car, but the E-Class is hard to give up. Great video as always folks!
Great video as always. The way companies like Mercedes Benz give you guys early access to such vehicles says a lot about how big you guys have gotten in such a short time. Keep up the amazing work!
Right on! But you always gonna hear hard working Americans who can't afford the maintenance would come on here shamelessly trying to Compare their bouncy poor handling underperformed Mercedes mimic Lexus to Benz. Overall Mercedes is way ahead of any Japanese vehicle
E CLASS never fails to impress! and WOW ya'll went to AUSTRIA for this REVIEW! LOVE your dynamic reviews! I remember when the channel first started! honestly the E class looks GREAT!
Perfectly balanced styling, and a perfect size. I’d take an E-Class over an A6 or the 5-Series any day. Especially as an estate car. But I still agree about those flush door handles… Why did we need these (potentially problematic handles) when current and/or past door handles actually work and look great? Thanks for the video.
They are putting out some great vehicles. While I don't love the look of the new EQ line, these gas models we recently drove are very good. Mercedes-Benz is definitely focusing on refinement, a quiet cabin and a smooth ride which I feel will appeal to many.
It's a beautiful design and it's going to the future with the beautiful details of Mercedes, and the most beautiful of this beautiful video and information, greetings to you from Jordan Middle East 🇯🇴 Mercedes will remain luxury, technology, speed and the best ever
I’ve always liked the CLS over current e-class but wow this looks great! Love the tail lights and modern interior. A similarly updated GLE would be even better.
Mercedes Benz cleaned up really nicely with the look of this new E-class. Exterior and interior both look upper class, like its bigger brother the S-class, and a peppy, exciting combustion engine even in the present world of EVs! I hope this car stays around for a while and can add this to my garage at some point in the future :)
Thanks for the review. I have a 2014 E250 (their 4 cylinder diesel) and have been loving it for over 9 years with no issues at all. It’s been rock solid. Love to see the new one, just wish we could get another diesel in Canada!
Zach, saw you fueling your Porsche at Chevron in Blaine! Probably heading out for Jays game huh! Or a Swiftie! Next time refuel at exit 260, best price in town! I work in Bellingham but live in South Surrey so it’s a daily commute with my GLA45 AMG!Great review as always. Always looking for your reviews!
Yes, that was us. We tried filling up at that location on the way back but too long a line, I won't line up to save a few bucks, already cheaper than Canada!

One of my favourites! This still retains its classical elegance while looking modern! Glad that Mercedes hasnt gone the BMW way and messed up the looks just to "appear modern"!
Let’s talk about those door handles. I have an S500 MY 2023. Try sliding you hand on the handle after your car has driven in Toronto with all the salt and winter dirt. Sitting in the car looking for facial tissues to clean your hands. And no, they don’t always pop out when you want them to. BTW, that 6 cylinder is a marvel of technology. The pull of a V8 and economy of 8L / 100km in an S-class. Will never go back to a V8. Yes, I drive a sedan, owned one GLC, went back to a sedan. I am just not a truck driver. About those headlight, it’s amazing how it actually cuts out around the car in front of you. Your high beams are on but the car in front of you does not get blinded, the high beams actually light up around the car in front of you. Instantly tracks around curves, hills flat terrain as well, you have to see it to believe it. Also applies to oncoming traffic. No one ever flashes their lights at you.
As a current E400 coupe driver (28yo) & tech enthusiast, I still prefer the w213 generation. The screens are just a gimmick that don't add real value over the previous gen. Though, I am very relieved to hear that MB used soft-touch unlike in their other recent cars (C and EQ).
Nice classy car with a wall to wall dashboard touchscreen is awesome. I laughed you mentioned about a game called angry bird. I haven’t played them for a long time. I almost thought you going to say candy crush. 😆 Great video Andrea! 👍🏻👍🏻 ☕️ ☕️
The car looks great and the technology is great. Can't wait to see it in person and test drive it. Macchiato Beige interior looks amazing. That is the color I would get for the interior. Would probably get white or black for the exterior. Also I am interested in the AMG 53 sedan. Would like to know the horsepower and torque of that car.
The problem with reviews like these is that the reviewers are incentivized to gloss over the negatives. Otherwise the manufacturers will not invite them to these events again.
@tywanjames4427 unfortunately your wrong. While every car reviewer has their biases, it has nothing to do with trying to please the manufacturer. In the first place people like Zac and Andrea only get invited to events like these because the manufacturers respect their opinion. Why does the manufacturer respect their opinion you ask??? For one thing they've been in this business for awhile. Secondly manufacturers know that when people want to know about their products these days, the main place they head to is "RUclips Automotive Reviewsers" like Zac & Andrea. No, I don't know them personally. But it's just down right distasteful to accuse people that you don't know of being liars. Because thats basically what you did. Yes! The manufacturers definitely try to show all these RUclips reviewers a good time. That's par for the course. But no reviewer worth their salt is going to jeopardize their channel or their reputation especially for manufacturers who only listen to them bc of their viewership...before you speak listen and know a little something about what your talking about. And yes I do have background in cars and dealerships for your info.
As A European I’d go with the diesel or petrol PHEV E class over the EQE based on looks and maybe most importantly, I want soft touch plastics everywhere in my Mercedes Benz.
OK...Motormouth I've got a question....wow such beautiful lines of this E Class, nice and smooth and so awesome. You go around the car, a beautiful masterpiece...then you look inside and some engineer from Elmer Fudds college puts the computers and such just sticks it on top of the steering column......................NO. I never thought I would choose an Audi over a Mercedes, but for 2024, Audi wins hands down.
I live in Africa and I promise you lithium mining is very bad for the environment. The front end loaders alone burn 1800 liters of diesel in a 10hr shift. It’s also very bad for our environment. Which is something politicians are not telling you
Big mistake not to include a PHEV for USA. I’m out. I’m ONLY considering PHEV model sedans so looks like it’s the Volvo S60 or S90 Recharge for me for my next vehicle.
As an owner of the 2022 E450 All-Terrain (wagon) with the same mild-hybrid and the Inline-6, this model is certainly a bit of an improvement over the 2021-2023 versions. Looks-wise, I like the new version a lot more. However, if they had come out with the “L” (long wheelbase) version of the E-class that they sell in some markets like China and India etc., it would have been a lot more attractive to me. As it stands, it does not go far enough, from a ground-up re-design perspective. Not really a bad thing, but this is more of the same.

Andrea is amazing! Zack is a lucky guy to have such a great partner who really knows her stuff!!!
LOL
Great review as always. I’m sure they have always been great, but the “drive-bys” where so beautifully shot. Really great camera work in general.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
E CLASS never fails to impress! and WOW ya'll went to AUSTRIA for this REVIEW! LOVE your dynamic reviews! I remember when the channel first started! honestly the E class looks GREAT!
As an owner of both GLE suv and E Class Sedan, I always prefer driving the sedan.

Problematic door handles equals $$$ for the service department 😅
Exactly. $$$… Great way of explaining the problem.
Flush handles is cheap way to gain added MPGs. Problem is they’re horrendous from a practical standpoint
I have never considered a MB product. You may have changed my mind. Great review. Thank you

💯 They're great together.
My son is now driving the 2012 E350 I bought new, it has 147,000 miles with no issues whatsoever !!
I’ve always liked the CLS over current e-class but wow this looks great! Love the tail lights and modern interior. A similarly updated GLE would be even better.
too bad they're killing the cls. Im sure it will make its return sometime around or after the 6 comes back from bmw.
I love the CLS!!!
Love it. Makes me want to upgrade from my 2022 C Class with just 7K miles.
I’ll keep my 2014 E250 that still gets over 1100km per tank. Hybrid diesel would be interesting though! As always, great review. ❤
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Love diesel too
I don't like the racoon/Hamburglar black out front end. They need to fix that in the refresh .
So say I !
Dream car, with the more powerful engine choice. 😊
too bad local dealers have such limited inventory. my local deal had 1 c and 1 e and 2 GLB. More plug ins than ice. great vid
That cinnamon brown interior looks amazing 😍
You guys are so smooth. Thanks for the review 7:29
Great Review. How do you like this compared to the 2024 BMW 5 Series?
You are a very relaxing team 🙂 I enjoy your reviews 🙂

One question, did you guys record this in-car video using the on-dash camera that comes with the car, or selfie camera as they call it?
How that hell we don’t have this yet in USA
Inline 6 😩 What a beautiful car

It’s really MB’s entry level car.
No traditional, long time MB buyer takes the C Class seriously.
So…..the C63 shouldn’t be taken seriously …..? As a long time Benzophile… you are speaking silly talk.
If so I think that changes with the new C class, it has real road presence.
We have a 2013 year model and as luxurious as it looks,this one is on another level 🎉. No spare tire tho?
Looks like a nice car but I wonder whether sedans are nearing the end as crossovers seem to be much more practical.
Do you happen to know which market/s will get the Elegance version?
Nice. Which Color was the testet e Class ? And what size of Rims ?
Definitely shopping for a sedan over an SUV. I’ve had enough SUV’s for one lifetime.
4:35 and 4:49 Interesting shot/visuals. You can clearly see the Maybach-ish architecture.
Love this new design!
The Australian roads are smooth as Andrea 😎

You guys are the best! Been watching Zach for 20 years now 😂 I’m always looking forward to both of you and Andrea’s car reviews!

What's your impression on the W212 which is the E350 model from 2010 to 2016?
Another great review !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Other than the billboard screens now filling this car, what does this E class do better than the one from 2011? At least the 2011 had the V8 sound.
Will the E-Class, 2 door coupe be updated as well?
Yes, it is now called the CLE, replacing the C and E class coupe. Look on-line
One of my favourites! This still retains its classical elegance while looking modern! Glad that Mercedes hasnt gone the BMW way and messed up the looks just to "appear modern"!

Volvo S90 is half the price of an S class with the same feel and much better safety ❤
May have a great ride, but that interior is a distraction and gloss black fantastic nightmare. Mercedes is not the brand it used to be
Right, I love the previous interior an gadgets. They’re gone, now. Happily, I got my A45S on time 2 years ago.
Excellent review
Thanks, really glad you liked it!
I 100% agree with Zack. Give me normal door handle's.
Thanks!
Wow thank you!
7 months since this review and still no configuration on the Mercedes Canadian website, still no examples in the showroom. What's up with that?

Lol! I was thinking Candy Crush too, so addictive!
@@andreaspencer9813 Yes it is an addictive. 😆
Why does Mercedes stick a turbo in their engines that aren’t needed ? Plus too much plastic in this price range which cheapens it

What’s the predicted depreciation?
Great Review and you both add good up. For the Benz i Note 10 out of 10 possible Pointe.
New design is simply gaudy. Don't think people that love the pre W213 models would like this one.
My favs
This car is inside out new !!!

Agree! Felt less of a review and more like an advertisement. There was barely any criticism, if any.
That IS a pretty impressive 0-60, considering the heat and multiple runs.
Very smooth I like it
An E Class is probably my next car. I really wish they would bring over the phev. That would be my first choice.
Strange that MB don´t offer 200 and 220D at your market. Is it really need for 350/450? When we ride 220D on autobahn in 160km/h all day long.
Diesel cars are very niche in North America, so it makes sense for Mercedes not to sell the 220d there.
As a Merc. owner [E350 Coupe] for 10 years I say read Consumer Reports to see how low the rate this brand: near the bottom of the pack for reliabilty
It probably just me but when it comes on to true luxurious feel and look of a vehicle, i would choose a sedon over a SUV any day .
12:07 19 cubic feet?! That's huge. Definitely don't need to get a crossover with that size of trunk.
Beautiful car but without buttons - they will be without my order.
Andrea is a very stunning woman. And definitely elevates the look of luxury vehicles 🙂
