Used Car The E-Class Saloon
Like its predecessors, this generation of the E-Class is instantly recognisable as a Mercedes. Yet it displays its very own design idiom: the front end sweeps back dynamically, the long flanks exude athleticism and the tail end is emphatically broad. the design leaves no doubt that the E-Class remains familiary different
MERCEDES-BENZ went back to the drawing board for its eightth-generation E-class, applying its successful W204 C-class strategy of (mostly) lower prices plus more spec for its W212-series E-class.
The body was longer (4868mm), wider (1854mm) and lower (1464mm) than before – by 16mm, 10mm and 32mm respectively, underpinned by a wheelbase increased by 20mm to 2874mm.
The base petrol at launch, the E250 CGI, was powered by a 150kW/310Nm 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, using a five-speed automatic gearbox.
Mercedes applied its BlueEFFICIENCY measures to the E-class, devised to decrease fuel consumption and maximise efficiency.
This included improved aerodynamics (down 0.1 Cd to a world-leading 0.25 Cd for a sedan), alternator ‘management’, direct fuel injection, turbocharging, smaller engine displacements, an on-demand power steering pump and fuel pump, lower rolling resistance tyres, and an optimised air-conditioning compressor.
Some other innovations included ‘Attention Assist’ driver fatigue detection system, ‘Intelligent Light System’ with five different headlight functions, ‘Adaptive High-beam Assist’ to alter light intensity automatically, ‘Lane Keeping Assist’, ‘Blind Spot Assist’, ‘DISTRONIC Plus’ radar-guided cruise control, ‘PRE-SAFE Brake (autonomous emergency braking if there is an acute risk of an accident), and ‘Speed Limit Assist’, which can ‘read’ road-side speed zone signs
The E250 also benefited from the more efficient gearbox. All three variants got new steering column-mounted transmission selectors and paddle-shifters. The improvements were good for up to a 0.7L/100km improvement in fuel efficiency
