    Three powerplants, one inventor

    The advanced gasoline and gas-electric powerplants of the E-Class both trace their roots to technology pioneered by Mercedes-Benz. The V-6 and biturbo V-8 derive their clean, efficient performance from Direct Injection, a breakthrough first seen on the 1954 300SL. And the E400 HYBRID comes from the engineers who put the first hybrid with a lithium-ion battery on the road just a few short years ago.  (Disclaimer)

    Availability of E250 BlueTEC is delayed. See your dealer. Requires the use of ultralow-sulfur diesel fuel. Mercedes-Benz approves the use of B5 biodiesel (approved diesel fuel with maximum 5% biodiesel content) in all BlueTEC engines. The only approved biodiesel content is one that both meets ASTM D6751 specifications and has the oxidation stability necessary to prevent deposit/corrosion-related damages to the system (min 6th proven by En 14112 method). Please see your service station for further information. If the B5 biodiesel blend does not clearly indicate that it meets the above standards, please do not use it. The Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited warranty does not cover damage caused by non Mercedes-Benz approved fuel standards.

    Stop with confidence,
    stop-and-go with ease

    Lift off the accelerator quickly and Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs, for more immediate response when you hit the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying gently applies the brakes periodically, to sweep away water build-up. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a brake HOLD feature can make stop-and-go traffic more comfortable.  (Disclaimer)

    Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake maintenance, and tire and road conditions.

    We unite all aspects of performance to engineer something you can't get from a spec sheet.

    Learn more about Performance

DISTRONIC PLUS

This advanced, radar-based cruise control monitors the vehicle ahead and adjusts your speed to help maintain a chosen following distance. Its stop-and-go function can bring the car to a halt if it senses stopped traffic, then resume automatically.

Media Interface

The Media Interface turns your Mercedes-Benz into an extension of your iPod, compatible MP3 player or similar device. Browse, select and play your music via the vehicle's standard audio controls on the console, dash and steering wheel, or the available voice control.

4-wheel Electronic Traction System

4-ETS can help get you going even if three wheels lose their grip. Sensors at each wheel monitor traction based on wheel speeds. If one or more wheels start to slip, 4-ETS individually brakes the slipping wheels to maintain the flow of torque to the wheels with grip. Even if only one wheel has grip, 4-ETS can help get you going and stay in control.

Bluetooth® audio streaming

Bluetooth audio streaming makes it even easier to enjoy your digital music player, allowing you to connect your Bluetooth-equipped iPod® or other MP3 player wirelessly to your vehicle's audio system for convenient, cable-free playback.

Blind Spot Assist

At speeds above approximately 20 mph, if radar sensors in the rear bumper detect a vehicle in the "blind spot" area to either side, an indicator lights up in the appropriate side mirror. If you activate a turn signal while a vehicle is detected, a warning sounds. And if you disregard the alerts and begin changing lanes, available active technology can apply the brake to a single rear wheel, to help guide the car back into its lane.

COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST

This new standard safety innovation's radar-based technology alerts the driver if it senses a possible collision with a vehicle or certain stationary objects ahead. As soon as the driver steps on the brake pedal, its Adaptive Brake Assist automatically provides the ideal level of braking. And if deemed necessary, the system can also activate the features of PRE-SAFE®.

PRE-SAFE Brake

This advanced, radar-based cruise control monitors the vehicle ahead and adjusts your speed to help maintain a chosen following distance. Its stop-and-go function can bring the car to a halt if it senses stopped traffic, then resume automatically.

PRE-SAFE PLUS

An enhancement to the groundbreaking PRE-SAFE system helps protect the occupants in a rear-end collision. A radar sensor in the rear bumper helps detect an impending impact, engaging the features of PRE-SAFE to better prepare the front-seat occupants and their restraint systems. It can also increase brake pressure, to help reduce peak loads on all occupants as well as the risk of a secondary collision.

hybrid

The E400 HYBRID Sedan teams a V-6 gasoline engine with an electric motor and lithium-ion battery, a technology first introduced by Mercedes-Benz.
