For generations, one car has set the standards to which all other automobiles instantly
Since its arrival in its original form some 60 years ago, the Mercedes -Benz E -Class has devotedly fostered two virtues of leadership in the automotive world: A talent for breaking new ground in virtually every area of automotive excellence. And a knack for predicting what people will expect from all cars in the future. For decades, it’s been the standard- bearer in innovation, safety and rewarding performance. It’s been the subject of study to emulate its solidity and durability. And it’s been the object of endless idolization — from cars whose ads claim to have duplicated its iconic style, to wide
recognition for inventing what is now a core category of luxury automobile. For 2014, the E-Class asserts its lead once more — actually, several times more. It’s more advanced in its performance and its eco - friendliness. Intelligent Drive is a new name for its ever-expanding, industry-leading roster of innovations in both driving safety and convenience. And a stunningly redesigned body and more elegant cabin present the role-model virtues of the E - Class in supermodel style. Once again, the pace of progress has been reset. And with it, so has every expectation of what an automobile can be.

Like nothing before,

and everything after.
More than anything, innovation is what has always set the E ‑Class apart from every 
car that came before it. And it’s how it continues to influence every car that follows. 
For 2014, a new sense of individualism makes the eight sedans of the E‑ Class more 
distinctive from each other as well. The athletic Sport Sedans are more exuberant. 
The Luxury Sedans exude fresh new elegance. And two AMG Sedans elevate their 
performance and presence to breathtaking new pinnacles. No matter which one 
reflects your style best, the substance underneath outshines every car on the road. 
Sport Sedans
E 250 BlueTEC E 400 HYBRID E 350 E 550 4matic
Crisp new lines sweep seamlessly from shapely new headlamps to the wraparound taillamps, all with LED technology. For the first time, an E-Class Sedan wears the Star within its slatted grille, asserting its place among its sportiest brethren. Chrome and matte silver details set off aggressively sculpted lower bodywork. Four Sport Sedans fuel your passion uniquely: The new E 250 BlueTEC clean diesel1 and Direct Injection gasoline V-6 E 350 — both of which offer the option of 4matic® all- wheel drive.2 The 402-hp biturbo V-8 E 550 4matic. And the gasoline/lithium- ion electric E 400 HYBRID.
Luxury Sedans
E 250 BlueTEC E 350
With a modern take on the legendary chrome­framed Mercedes-Benz grille, the two E - Class Luxury Sedans express traditional refinement in a refreshing new style. Pencil- thin accents of polished chrome encircle the lower body, drawing the eye to the elegant design of their new front and rear aprons. And like their Sport Sedan counterparts, the gasoline -powered E 350 Luxury Sedan and clean-diesel E 250 BlueTEC1 Luxury Sedan offer the year-round confidence of optional 4matic all-wheel drive.
AMG Sedans
E 63 AMG 4matic E 63 AMG S-Model 4matic
Two new AMG® Sedans combine the increased output of their handcrafted biturbo V-8 engines with an extraordinary new ability to put it to good use. The 550-hp E 63 AMG 4matic and 577-hp E 63 AMG S-Model 4matic3 showcase a new all-wheel drive system — developed by AMG to put power to pavement more effectively. Off­the-line acceleration is dramatically quickened, while a 67% rear torque bias preserves their legendary agility. Added visual drama starts with a new front air dam featuring massive air intakes in an “A-wing” design, a new double­crossbar grille, and boldly flared front fenders.

E 350 4matic Sport Wagon E 63 AMG S‑Model 4matic Wagon
The aggressive new styling of the E- Class Sport Wagon is led by the Star in its slatted grille — a Mercedes- Benz wagon first that confirms its sporting soul. A matte chrome cross- strut and large mesh air intakes define its deep front air dam. A sport-tuned AGILITY CONTROL® front/ AIRMATIC® rear suspension teams with 17" or optional AMG® 18" wheels.4 Its efficient 302- hp Direct Injection V- 6, paddle-shifted 7-speed automatic and standard 4matic all-wheel drive join forces for confident control in any season.

E 350 4matic Luxury Wagon
From its classic chrome grille to its concealed exhaust tips, the E-Class Luxur y Wagon takes a more understated approach to its tradition of leadership. But it would be difficult to overstate the rewards of its smooth V-6, the reassurance of its 4matic all- wheel drive and the refinement of its luxury - tuned AGILITY CONTROL front/ AIRMATIC rear suspension. With a folding, rear­facing 3rd- row seat — easily accessed through a standard power liftgate — both the Luxury and Sport Wagons seat up to seven passengers.
Beyond exclusive lies the exotic new E 63 AMG S-Model 4matic Wagon3 — the most powerful wagon in production. A handcrafted 577-hp biturbo V-8 channels 590 lb- ft of torque via new AMG performance 4matic, to deliver 60 mph in 3.6 seconds.5 AMG-specific styling cues include a new double- crossbar grille, new “A-wing” front air dam, flared front fenders and 19" AMG wheels. And while it’ll be limited in production volume, its 5 - passenger cabin offers all the cargo volume of its stablemates.

An example for generations.

And your future generations.
Luxury wagons were once known for their enormous length and imitation wood paneling. 
Then the inventor of the car decided to reinvent the wagon, too. Mercedes ‑Benz engineers  
didn’t just make the wood real and move it to the inside. They gave it an entirely new set of 
capacities: To reward its driver, and protect its occupants, like an E‑ Class. Generations later, 
it continues to set new standards in luxury and performance. And its roomy, flexible cabin 
surrounds your most precious cargo with ever‑advancing safety leadership. It was born to 
be the exception to the rules of wagons. Like every E ‑ Class, it grew up to be the exemplar.
Technically advanced, classically crafted.
In true E - Class fashion, the E 350 4matic® Wagons wrap innovative, intuitive technology in impeccable style. A new 3-pod gauge cluster and central 7" color screen team with a multifunction steering wheel and convenient central controller to unite all entertainment, information and personal settings. Like their Sedan counterparts, the Sport and Luxury Wagons let you tailor the cabin appointments to your taste, with three types of hand-finished wood trims: traditional Burl Walnut, striking Black Ash and new low-sheen, open- pore Brown Satin Ash.
7‑passenger seating, first‑class comfort.
With three rows of seating, an E 350 4matic Wagon has room for seven. The rear-facing third row folds out of the cargo floor in seconds, and features dual head restraints and cupholders. The second row provides a folding center armrest and the option of sunshades in each door. Both 14 -way power front seats include power lumbar support and 3- position memory. First- rate options for the front row include Heated and Active Ventilated seats, and an active multicontour driver seat with a massage feature.
Wide‑ open space, filled with good ideas.
The flexible cabin is as accommodating of your cargo needs as it is with your passengers. With the third row stowed, you can carry 20.5 cu ft of luggage and five passengers. Handles near the liftgate lower the 60/40-split EASY-FOLD second row to fit up to 57.4 cu ft of cargo. The standard luggage cover rises and lowers automatically with the standard power liftgate. It integrates a vertical partition net you can raise to the ceiling with the second row folded or upright. New HANDS- FREE ACCESS is an option that lets you open the power liftgate by waving your foot under the bumper.3
Enhanced vision, enchanting view.
Both its E- Class performance and wagon features are sure to improve your outlook. Shift to Reverse with the front wipers on, and the rear- window wiper sweeps automatically. A standard rear view camera or optional new 360° Surround View System3 can show your immediate surroundings on the in -dash screen.6 New multicolor ambient lighting bathes the cabin in a gentle glow. And the expansive available Panorama roof can deliver the sun and stars.
