Nothing comes close to the unparalleled experience that driving a Mercedes-Benz can offer. Held in the highest regard for its legacy, engineering, luxury, and class-leading features, each Mercedes-Benz vehicle continues to be the trademark of one’s success, and one fine example of this is the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class portrays style, status and exclusivity with class and progression. Powerfully convincing result of the new Mercedes-Benz design philosophy, it is the embodiment of ultra-modern stylishness and refined sportiness. Its design unifies modest elegance yet powerful presence in every line.

This comes complete with infotainment and control systems that offer an all-new experience. The sum of its innovations, including the ATTENTION ASSIST which detects typical symptoms of drowsiness on the basis of driver behaviour and alerts the driver to increasing fatigue and inattention makes the E-Class the most intelligent saloon in the executive class.

 

Coupé-esque and powerful

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is sophisticated, confidently stylish and dynamic. The elongated bonnet coupled with a coupé-esque roof that flows into a sensual, broad-shouldered tail end creates an exciting silhouette. The powerfully extended vehicle body of the E-Class is characterized by short overhangs, a long wheelbase, large wheels and taut well-defined flanks displaying a fresh, stylish and dynamic interpretation of the feature line. It thus systematically embodies the Mercedes-Benz design philosophy of “sensual purity”.

The E-Class clearly shows a muscular front end that boasts a different look for each design and equipment line. The base version features the classic Mercedes radiator grille with the star on the bonnet. The AVANTGARDE and AMG Line models are identifiable by the sports radiator grille with a large Mercedes star as its centrepiece. Each of the radiator grille designs lends the E-Class a distinct character–elegant and with an emphasis on status or dynamically elegant–offering a unique degree of diversity that makes each different model stand out. At the rear end, broad shoulders above the rear wheel arches lend the E-Class its unmistakably powerful character.

 

Next Level Interior Design

The interior of the E-Class embodies the synthesis of emotion and intelligence. This wide-screen cockpit contains a large display with virtual instruments in the direct field of vision of the driver as well as a central display above the centre console. The driver can choose between three different styles to select their preferred look for the wide-screen instrument cluster: “Classic”, “Sport” and “Progressive”. As the entire cockpit is fully digital, the driver is free to configure the information and views of relevance for them and thus create their own personal cockpit.

The E-Class is the first in its segment to have Touch Controls strategically located on the steering wheel. Like a smartphone interface, they respond precisely to horizontal and vertical swiping movements, allowing the driver to control the entire infotainment system using finger swipes without having to take their hands off the steering wheel, thereby ensuring minimum driver distraction. The steering wheel is luxuriously elegant in its black Nappa leather.

Further controls for the infotainment system are provided in the shape of a Touchpad with Controller in the centre console, which can even recognize handwriting. There are also direct-access buttons for controlling functions such as the air-conditioning system.

 

First-Class Seats

A further highlight of the E-Class is its seats. Their ergonomic, sculptural form combines Mercedes-Benz’s hallmark suitability for long journeys with a refined, sporty look, featuring a unique design for each line.

The rear bench seat in the new E-Class Saloon comes with the option of a three-piece backrest with a 40% – 20% – 40% split, making it exceptionally versatile. Integral features of the centre armrest include a storage box and two pop-out drink holders. There is also the option of a holder for a tablet for the rear passengers.

 

Next-generation driving assistance systems

Mercedes-Benz’s new assistance and safety systems enhance safety, comfort and driver assistance to new levels.

Active Brake Assist is fitted as standard. It is able to warn the driver of impending collisions, provide optimum support with emergency braking and if necessary also autonomously apply the brakes. In addition to slower-moving, stopping or stationary vehicles, it can also detect pedestrians crossing the danger zone ahead of the vehicle.

Likewise included as standard are ATTENTION ASSIST with adjustable sensitivity, which can warn the driver of inattentiveness and drowsiness; and ACTIVE PARKING ASSIST with reverse camera, which makes parking convenient, safe and effortless.

 

Robust yet lightweight body shell

An outstandingly stiff body forms the basis for exceptional handling, astonishingly low noise and vibration levels, and a high level of crash safety. To achieve this, the engineers opted for a body shell with a far higher proportion of aluminium and ultra-high-strength steel components than its predecessor. The front wings, bonnet, boot lid, and large sections of the front and rear ends are made of sheet or cast aluminium. This lightweight design reduces fuel consumption and makes for tangibly sporty and agile vehicle handling.

 

Against the wind

Aerodynamic performance is one of the major reasons behind the outstanding efficiency of the E-Class. Here the E-Class raises the benchmark with a record-breaking drag coefficient (Cd value) of 0.23. The sophisticated aerodynamics additionally minimizes wind noise and ensure that the E-Class is even quieter than other luxury-class models.

Sporty from every perspective

The sharpened SUV character and expressive design underscore the new GLA’s claim to setting the standard in its class. More than a commanding view of the road ahead, the new second-generation GLA offers a rewarding view of what’s next.

As a compact SUV, it fits in nearly any open space and yet has room for your entire life. The character has been significantly reinforced compared with the previous model. The height of the new GLA, at 1611 millimetres (1616 with roof rails), exceeds that of its predecessor by more than ten centimetres.

The GLA 200 AMG Line boasts an attractive sporty appearance both inside and out. In particular, the AMG Body Styling comes with a diamond radiator grille with pins in chrome, 19inch 5 twin-spoke light-alloy wheels, black roof liner and polished aluminium roof rails. The side and rear views are characterized by the muscular shoulders of the vehicle. In addition, the new generation multifunction sports steering wheel in Nappa leather stands for the exquisite look and feel of the new GLA.

 

Fit more in. Fit in more.

Within a more nimble length, the new GLA gives you more space to ride, more room to shop, stow and be spontaneous. The seating position for both the driver and the front passenger is higher and more upright than in the predecessor model, and thus more typical of an SUV.

The new GLA offers a more spacious interior with seats that are incredibly comfortable. The rear seat backrest is 40:20:40 split, with each section folding down individually. This allows better space management for cargo loading and gives passengers a more configurable seating position for greater overall comfort.
