Well it's a wagon. Basically an adventure mobile but with more power and performance. Why people don't buy more wagons is beyond me.

It's a wagon! The greatest type of car. It's black fast, and beautiful. It's great for hauling kids around and has AWD for ski trips. No issues with it so far!

Ochai A

Nice vehicle with great features and swiftly moves.

My Benz is a very sound vehicle with nice tires and nice airbag with sound speakers and perfectly working engine, nice color combination and the all round performance is swift and great, I will advise you to try it out, with Benz you will be free from consistent visitation of your mechanic.

Ali J

The most interesting features are the whole entire interior as well as the rims.

I love my Mercedes Benz e-class car. It is great to drive and be seen in. It is very luxurious, fast, reliable, safe to drive on a day to day basis whether I am driving for work or for leisure. The features are those of pure class and elegance. I could not be happier with my Mercedes Benz e-class.

Gigi H

E class 300 - luxurious comfort.

E class is luxuriously comfortable with stunning exterior design. Drives so smoothly and quiet when driving. Also is reliable and feels it has good safety measures. It has lots of space in the front seating area along with spacious backseat areas. I have not had any issues. It has luxurious interior with high tech systems which makes such a joy to drive.

Anita B

My e-class exploration: finding new features are like discovering a new world.

I truly enjoy my vehicle. I feel safe & secure while driving. The performance, reliability, comfort are all awesome, and expected in a luxury car. As for the features, I must admit that I am still learning the functions as I go along-- excitedly discovering some cool feature when I least expect it.

Scott F

Comfortable and clean as can be.

Car has really beautiful sharp lines. Great gas mileage considering it is only a 4 cylinder. The comfort factor is a 10. Sit in the seats and it is like getting a hug from a old friend. The ease of use with all the technology is top notch as well. The controls in the vehicle are ergonomically placed to minimize driver distraction. Voice controls work great and comes with apple carplay which is a plus for our family. Surprisingly more room in the backseat than would think. Trunk has plenty of room as well.

Giancarlos R

The interior is fire and the outside too.

The vehicle is great and very luxurious. My favorite feature is the interior light. Everyone that gets in gets so fascinated by the beautiful interior design on the e class Mercedes Benz. I would definitely get another e class but AMG hopefully one day.

Al C

Very safe to drive because of all the advanced technology

Very reliable,comfortable and drives well. No companies

Negative Owner Reviews

Donald R

Had a 12 e-350 traded it in for 17 e 300. Mistake. I traded down.

Over engineered. Hard to use radio. No CD player. Rock hard uncomfortable seats. Rides worse than a Camry. Radio controls on steering wheel are impossible to use and dangerous. Comes with run flats. Once you replace those the ride gets a bit better. Fake leather seats are already starting to wear out. I had an e 350 and traded it on an e 300. Mistake.

Cindy L

Best car there is to purchase.

This vehicle performs quite well, especially in different weather conditions and over uneven roads. It is a reliable car that works very well without a lot of maintenance. It is very comfortable with the space designed well. It has all the features of a luxury car for the driver and the passengers.

What Do Critics Say About the Mercedes E-Class?

Consumer Reports says the 2017 Mercedes E-Class is an iconic midsize luxury sedan with reasonably high owner satisfaction scores as it ages.
Edmunds rates the E-Class at 3.8/5, praising the extremely luxurious cabin, but doesn’t like the small cargo space in the trunk of the sedan.
Kelley Blue Book users give the E-Class a 4.2/5, enjoying the advanced driver assistance features, but owners don’t like the expensive maintenance costs.

What Common Problems Does the 2017 Mercedes E-Class Have?

Common problems found on the 2017 Mercedes E-Class include a fuel leak from the high pressure fuel pump, the instrument cluster failing, along with transmission oil leaks. Overall, these problems are worse than other midsize luxury sedans, leading to higher repair bills as an E-Class ages.

A fuel leak from the high pressure fuel pump is the most widespread problem found on the 2017 E-Class at around 45,000 miles. The pump housing is known to crack which leads to fuel leaking out of it and the lines. The only way to fix the problem is by replacing the pump, which costs around $1,250, depending on local labor rates.

The instrument cluster failing is another complaint from some E-Class owners at roughly 60,000 miles. Electronic components in the gauge cluster start to wear out, leading to the system not displaying information properly. Replacing the gauge cluster is expensive, costing around $1,800.

Transmission oil leaks also show up on some 2017 E-Class models at around 50,000 miles. The seals on the side of the transmission start to fail as they heat cycle with the car. Replacing the seals is a time consuming process which costs around $1,000.

There are 20 recalls on the 2017 Mercedes Benz E-Class, which is worse than many other sedans on the market. The most serious recall covers the fuel system failing from a damaged wire harness. Other recalls cover underbody panels melting, along with some software issues with the stereo system.

How Long Will the 2017 Mercedes E-Class Last?

A well-maintained 2017 Mercedes Benz E-Class can last around 150,000 miles, which is shorter than some other midsize luxury sedans like the Lexus ES. Regular annual maintenance costs are more expensive than most competitors, according to data provided by Repair Pal, at $1,052 per year.

As a used 2017 E-Class reaches 100,000 miles, and depending on the vehicle history, owners should be prepared to replace the windshield wiper arms for $180, the intake manifold gasket costing $575, along with the ABS control module which costs $1,300.

Patrice S

The Mercedes Benz e300 is very reliable. No problems with this car. I keep my car properly serviced at the dealership I purchased the car through.

aleen s

It has some problems but they are starting to show closer to the end of my lease. The steering wheel has been starting to squeak and one time it randomly stopped.

Melina L

I have not had any issues with the car. The hardest part is the low profile tires, that are easy to scrape and get tire flats with.

Angel L

No none at all. I have never experienced any that I'm aware of. Like I said very good quality. Haven't heard anyone complaining

How Is the Technology?

Entertainment technology is great with a standard 12.3-inch COMAND infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Optional upgrades include a more powerful stereo system.

Standard safety technology is great offering:

Driver drowsiness monitor
Crosswind assist
Active brake assist
Pre-Safe system
Rearview Camera

Optional driver assistance features include:

Adaptive cruise control
Blind spot monitoring
Adaptive headlights
Active park assist
Rear cross traffic alert
Evasive steering assist
Lane keep assist
360-degree camera
Lane change assist

Is the 2017 Mercedes E-Class a Good Value?

Yes, the 2017 Mercedes E-Class is a good value since you get a lot of luxury and comfort for your money. The blue book fair purchase price ranges from $27,990 to $46,680, making it more than a Cadillac CTS or Acura TLX. When new, the price range was $52,150 to $74,700. Depreciation is worse than average, losing nearly 20% of its current value per year.

What Engines Come In the Mercedes E-Class?

What Colors Does the Mercedes E-Class Come In?

How Comfortable Is the Mercedes E-Class?

The 2017 Mercedes E-Class is highly regarded for its comfort, setting industry standards with its luxurious and well-crafted interiors. This high level of comfort is achieved through a combination of elements such as spaciousness, seat design, ride quality, and noise isolation.

Both front and rear passengers in the 2017 E-Class enjoy ample headroom and legroom, offering a spacious and airy feeling even on long journeys. The seats are designed with ergonomics in mind, providing excellent support and cushioning. The upholstery uses high-quality materials, including available leather and optional heated, ventilated, and massaging functions that further enhance comfort levels.

The E-Class ride quality is exceptional. Its suspension is finely tuned to absorb most road imperfections, resulting in a smooth and composed ride. Drivers have the option to adjust the suspension settings according to their preferences, with the available AIRMATIC air suspension system, providing optimal ride comfort.

How Much Storage Space Does the Mercedes E-Class Have?

The 2017 Mercedes E-Class offers ample storage space across its different models, although the amount of cargo space varies from model to model.

The E Class Sedan variant, the most popular model, provides 13.1 cubic feet of trunk space. This is enough space to accommodate several standard-size suitcases or multiple grocery bags. It can fit items like a stroller, a couple of golf bags, or multiple carry-on bags, making it perfect for weekend getaways or business trips.

On the other hand, the E-Class Wagon is a champion regarding cargo space. It boasts 35 cubic feet of cargo space behind its rear seats, and that number expands to an impressive 64 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. This means you can fit larger items like bicycles, large camping gear, or even some pieces of furniture, making it an excellent choice for family outings or for those who need to transport large items often.

Regarding the Coupe model, the cargo space is slightly reduced due to the sleeker design, with a trunk capacity of 10 cubic feet. It is suitable for lighter travel and can fit a few small suitcases or a collection of shopping bags.

Finally, the E-Class Convertible, known for prioritizing style and the open-air driving experience, offers the least amount of cargo space at 9.5 cubic feet. Even though it’s smaller than the other models, it’s still practical for day-to-day use, and can accommodate a couple of soft bags or a small suitcase, making it perfect for a weekend getaway.

What Are the Differences Between Years?

The fifth generation of the E-Class was introduced for the 2017 model year.

2015: New E400 with turbocharged V6 engine and some minor equipment shuffling.

2016: Hybrid model discontinued, along with the E63 AMG model.

2017: Fully resigned with new interior, exterior, technology, and engine choices for the sedan and wagon models.

2018: Coupe and Convertible fully redesigned, AMG E63 S sedan and wagon introduced, more standard features on E300 sedan and wagon.

2019: New steering wheel, E450 model introduced to replace E400, new AMG E53 with six-cylinder and mild-hybrid system

2020: More standard safety features, E350 replaces the entry-level E300.

2021: Minor exterior styling changes, MBUX infotainment system introduced, E450 wagon renamed to All-Terrain.

How Does the Mercedes E-Class Compare to the Competition?

The 2017 Mercedes E-Class sets the standard for what a midsize luxury sedan should offer, although you do trade in some long-term reliability for the upscale cabin and advanced technology.

The BMW 5 Series is another midsize sedan which costs around $2,000 more. Performance is better in the BMW 5 Series, while the Mercedes E-Class offers a more luxurious interior. We recommend the Mercedes E-Class since the ownership costs are similar, but the E-Class is more comfortable.

The Audi A6 is a popular sedan which is available for around $1,500 less. The standard all-wheel drive system on the Audi A6 is better in the snow, while the Mercedes E-Class offers better interior materials. We recommend the Mercedes E-Class, although both are very similar luxury sedans.

Lea M on May 22, 2021

I love the dash video screen with the mouse and it has great economy features.

I already had to replace the serpentine belt it was under warranty so mercedes-benz covered the cost of the work. The pulley that connected the alternator to the belt was off and has to be replaced also. The interior finishes that are metallic are peeling in the center console.

Tricia T on April 28, 2021

Sleek silver fox with self parking feature.

What I like most about my car is the sleek look outside and inside. I like that it has a self parking feature and I can change the interior lighting. It is also a very smooth ride with motion sensors all around so it helps me avoid hitting other cars.

Hyungchul K on April 18, 2021

2017 Mercedes e300 comes with great features.

I like how comfortable it is to drive the car, when I push on the gas pedal the vehicle drives smooth. Also, it comes with a lot of features I like, most notably android auto. It also comes with remote start that you can use through their app. The car has not given me any problems so far.

Mary V on April 3, 2021

Luxurious safety - beautiful, comfortable, pampering and safe.

It has great pick up and provides a smooth ride I enjoy the interior custom color lights. The seat massage is amazing luxury. I love the side bolster support. The lane change warning signal is invaluable. The back up camera and front and side sensors make parking a breeze. It has a great turn radius. So much more. What's not to love!!

Kirsten J on February 27, 2021

The Mercedes Benz is a luxury car & amazing. I definitely recommend buying this car.

It is a nice car! When your car is in drive & one of your doors are open the car will not take off unless the doors are all the way closed. The only problem I have is my tires, every time I put air in them, three days later my tire pressure is at 28 or lower. Other than that little problem, I totally recommend buying a mercedes-benz.

Kayla R on February 14, 2021

Interior space, big enough for the whole family but also to carry big items.

My vehicle has some very useful safety features, like back and front cameras, it is really comfortable for long distance trips, with enough space for all the family. Mercedes is a brand I trust and had buy vehicles from them for many years. Highly recommended.

Mohamed A on February 11, 2021

Very nice car definitely I'm enjoying driving this car

On the road, however, the Cadillac CTS-V impressed with its handling but its transmission and interior were its weak points because the eight-speed wasn't as quick as the new nine-speed unit in the Mercedes-AMG E63 S and the quality of the cabin isn't up to par with the Mercedes. The Mercedes, on the other hand, impressed with its explosive acceleration and handling that eviscerates the road with brute force. However, its brakes aren't consistent, which means it's not as confidence-inspiring as the Cadillac.

John F on February 4, 2021

With a classic design as expected from a luxurious manufacturer.

This is a classic work of art. Well furniture interior with a touch of taste and style. Specially design for professional with a taste of high quality performing car. With a great fuel consumption rate and two guaranteed for assurance of the quality.

Nicole W on January 27, 2021

I feel safe in it. I have on star..

Smooth, safe & efficient fully loaded. Everything is luxury & classy. I love the color & it's a perfect fit for my style.

Carl J on January 15, 2021

Gorgeous in every way. From front the to back. Simple a work of art.

Very comfortable. Love the different features. The very best in the latest technology. It also has run flat tires and the suspension is surprising comfortable. The paint job was very detailed, very gorgeous black color. The lights inside as well as outside makes the really stand.

Cindy L on January 12, 2021

Best car there is to purchase.

J E on January 11, 2021

It's a great driving machine.

I love the design and the way it drives love the color and all the options including the xenon headlights.

Amy C on January 7, 2021

Stop, it's time for a break.

My car was bought used and has performed well beyond what I had expected. The additional knee support for the driver's seat has help given I have bad knees. The car actually surprised me on a road trip, had no idea it would tell me to stop and takes breaks... Seating wise the car was comfortable.

Nanette S on December 26, 2020

I love the illumination at night that the car has.

I love the style, comfort, and drive of my vehicle. It comes with several amenities that make it top notch. Some are the keyless entry using the mbrace app (which is a phenomenal app). The lights illuminate in the interior at night with multiple illumination colors to choose from. The smoothness of the ride feels like riding on air. The car also boast a sleek luxurious look that screams attention.

Frank G on December 17, 2020

Craftsmanship and quality of components. Car is responsive, fast and steady.

Amazing ride. Very safe and reliable. Comfortable and roomy

Dhruv G on December 14, 2020

Mercedes Benz e class review.

The car is a great car. It drives very comfortably and is smooth on the highway as well as inside roads. The 4matic system is great on snowy roads and rough terrain. The infotainment system is unparalleled and has the best navigation. The engine is very powerful and has 5 drive modes with sports being my favorite since the car runs very well.

Ochai A on November 30, 2020

Nice vehicle with great features and swiftly moves.

Nicholas N on November 27, 2020

Updates, mechanical failures and new functionalities.

I like its performance on the asphalt, its design and functionality. I don't like that my car has little compatible with some brand.

Melissa T on November 24, 2020

Great value for the cost, excellent car with all of the extras

Very reliable, comfortable, safety features are easy to use, spacious back seat, great sound system, sensitive brakes

Alan G on November 20, 2020

It is a four seater so that it is not a family car. I live alone so it has enough room for me.

The vehicle is a coupe. It is a luxury car.It is not as comfortable as the last car.

Giancarlos R on November 9, 2020

The interior is fire and the outside too.

Jennifer A on November 5, 2020

The car is a beauty and is wonderful to drive and has great force power.

I love the sporty design of my vehicle. Along with the force power of it. What I also like about my car is the eco friendly feature with the gas mileage you get. This car is a beautiful and it is an awesome vehicle to own. The features in it are great as well.

Wayne B on November 4, 2020

Well it's a wagon. Basically an adventure mobile but with more power and performance. Why people don't buy more wagons is beyond me.

It's a wagon! The greatest type of car. It's black fast, and beautiful. It's great for hauling kids around and has AWD for ski trips. No issues with it so far!

The vehicle is really reliable and it gets me where I need to go. I enjoy riding around in it and it does not use much gas.

Letetia J on October 2, 2020

Very sleek and luxurious vehicle.

I really love the luxury of the vehicle. It's all leather with a sunroof and navigation. The ride is very smooth and does not ride like any car I have ever ridden in. Very good look on the inside and outside. Mercedes rims are very nice. The car is black on the interior and exterior.

Patricia T on September 23, 2020

Self-parking, and sleek silver e300 Mercedes Benz.

My silver e300 is a smooth ride and handles the road exceptionally well! It has woodgrain interior and there are several color options for the interior lighting. My car is also all wheel drive (AWD) which is an added bonus. And let me not forget about the self parking feature, which is pretty awesome. I love my car!

Maryann P on September 10, 2020

Can change the ambient light to any color depending on the mood I am in the day.

I love the way the car drives it is very smooth and sporty at the same time, even though it is the luxury class. I love that I am able to change the colors of the ambient light. Depending on my mood. I love the heated seats. I love the way the steering well lowers. I also like the screen that fits into the car does not just look like an iPad sitting on top. I feel safe in the car and truly love the way it drives.

Ryan J on September 5, 2020

Best of all: mercedes-benz.

I have always dreamt to own a Mercedes because of its luxury status and comfort. It is one of the best car making brand out there. Very reliable and it is safety is outstanding. Combining latest technology, it is best car you can find out there. Love it is customizable feature.

Donald R on August 6, 2020

Had a 12 e-350 traded it in for 17 e 300. Mistake. I traded down.

Ali J on August 5, 2020

The most interesting features are the whole entire interior as well as the rims.

Scott F on July 28, 2020

Comfortable and clean as can be.

Ann W on July 12, 2020

Convenient because it seats 5 people at a time.

No issues with the Benz, they are well built vehicles. The vehicles offer a range of assistance for owners. The new the model, the better the features. Most of the vehicles are sought after even for pre owned/resale. The interiors are superior to any other car that I have experienced.

Phyllis T on June 30, 2020

After exiting car, you can roll up the windows, with just the push of a button.

Emergency brake handle does not work properly. No other problems as to speak of as yet. It is super comfortable, spacious, luxurious, and extremely quiet on the road. I like the fact that you do not have to have the car key in an ignition to start the car. I also like the fact that if you turn off the engine and get out of the car you can roll all the windows up with a push of a button on the car key.

william B on June 27, 2020

It is a great car and i love driving it.

Love the safety features. I have problems with all the extra technical items.

Jessica W on June 4, 2020

The Self-parking is great. You can be hands free

Performance is amazing. I love the interior, smooth driving, inside lights, dashboard assistance, speakers, and color. I love the self parking feature as well. The car has two windows in the ceiling. The car also has the Mercedes symbol that lights up in the front. I like the auto braking when you are about to hit something. I also like the alarm when you are close to something

Edwin J on May 23, 2020

The car is safe to drive in an accident with multiple airbags

The styling is smart. The car is safe. The car is complex

Shruti P on May 14, 2020

The gorgeous diamond white beauty.

It is amazing and I love the ambient lighting the mos. The surround system in the car is also outstanding. I have the diamond white color which is gorgeous.

Joann A on April 26, 2020

Mercedes Benz is the King of the Road

Performance is excellent with the Mercedes Benz e300. The inside cabin is so quiet that's it's a pleasure to drive in! The exterior & interior are simply beautiful. My only complaint is that the performance tires are sensitive. They do give you 50 miles to continue driving even when the tire is ruined but they are quite expensive to replace. But Mercedes is one of the best luxury cars on the road!

Kim J on April 19, 2020

Mercedes, the best or nothing!

There is nothing about my vehicle that I do not like. It is reliable and very comfortable with seats that hug you. It has all the latest technology and features. It is one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. I would recommend the Mercedes e300 to anyone!

Leanne M on April 13, 2020

Really cool mouse like feature to control the TV monitor.

I love the car. It is good on gas handles well and is great for running errands as well as highway driving. The car has 4 wheel drive which is nice and necessary for New England winters and bad rain storms that are common in this area. I love the way the lighting on the interior can change colors and that the dash screen is very wide.

Negin D on March 19, 2020

Monogram mbz when you open the door.

The car is very comfortable and great for a family. It is a smooth drive as well and can fit car seats comfortably. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a luxury SUV. This is the former m class and done much better than the m class. One of the unique features is the monogram when you open the door.

Lily H on March 3, 2020

It will not let you down. It is nice and quiet. The sleek style really is the best.

I love the interior. The seats are amazing and very comfortable. I love the tech built into the dashboard for my convenience.

Elissa B on January 29, 2020

Only agile people can easily access the back seat. Trunk space is limiting

Handles well on curves, have had no problems, extremely comfortable, love the convertible top and the color is gorgeous

Carol Y on January 25, 2020

A comfortable and reliable sedan for the any family.

I love the e-class because of the drive experience. It is especially reliable in the rain. It is like driving on dry ground. I have been driving the same model in different colors for like 12 years. I like everything about it performance, reliability, comfort and features.

Gigi H on January 1, 2020

E class 300 - luxurious comfort.

Amazing sound and navigation!

Absolutely love this car! I think that my favorite feature is the stereo system. The sound that comes from this car is incredible. I also love that you can customize the vehicle. . . Down to the way it drives! It is insane! On top of all of that, there are multiple ways to different "touchpads" to control all of these functions. Overall great vehicle.

The luxury performance competes with the best of them.

I love the complete package. The handling and all the amenities. I have owned a Mercedes for more than 12 years now and this is the car for me. I feel it represents me very well.

2017 Mercedes E 350 Sport

Mercedes E350 Sport drives like a dream. No problems to report and it is very reliable. Very comfortable and love double USB ports. Pickup is great. It is easy to be doing 100 and not even realize it. Leather seats are quite comfortable. We will always buy Mercedes.

It drives smooth and it's comfortable.

I love the features. My favorite are the auto high beams, the blind side indicator and the heated massaging seats. The only downside is i have difficulty when it rains. It makes the sensors go crazy.
