Expert reviews
Summary
Mercedes-Benz E 400 4MATIC W213 (2017) is a luxury sedan appreciated for the powerful performance of the twin-turbo V6 engine, the combination of luxury and comfort, as well as the advanced 4MATIC system. It offers a refined and smooth driving experience, with enough power for dynamic maneuvers and long journeys. Fuel consumption, while not as high as the sporty models, may be a concern for fuel-economy-conscious buyers. Although it offers an impressive top speed, the M276 V6 engine can be susceptible to timing chain tensioner problems and oil leaks. The 9G-Tronic transmission is smooth, but should be checked for erratic shifts in low gears. For buyers looking for a fast, luxury high-performance sedan, this model remains a strong choice, subject to regular maintenance and a service history check.
