I AM BACK with the all-new 2024 Mercedes Benz E-Class and the W213 E-Class on our KZfaq Channel! 😍
In this video, we will be having a first walkaround showing you the Interior and Exterior Features of the all-new 2024 Mercedes Benz E-Class in comparison with the old W214 E-Class.
The new E-Class: A Bridge between Tradition and Digitalisation
Stuttgart. For over 75 years, the E-Class has set the standard for mid-range luxury saloons. In 2023, Mercedes-Benz will open a new chapter for the business saloon: the new E-Class points the way in the transition from the combustion engine to the electric drive. At the same time, its new electronics architecture allows a comprehensive digital user experience. The first saloon models of the 214 series will arrive at the
European sales partners in autumn 2023.
The new E-Class (length/width/height: 4949/1880/1468 millimetres) has the proportions of a classic three-box saloon: the short front overhang and long bonnet are followed by a greenhouse which is set well back. The passenger area is generously dimensioned, partly owing to the two-centimetre longer wheelbase (2961 millimetres) compared to the preceding series. The luggage capacity is up to 540 litres.
What do you think about the 2024 Mercedes E-Class?
Do you like the Look of the New Interior?
What do you think about the New Super Screen?

Mr. Benz! You killed it with this video, wonderful, perfect! Here in Brazil we have a 2017 W213 E250 and all we needed was a comparison video like this to decide on a future exchange for a W214. We love the W213 as a family car, we already had a 2014 W212 E250 facelift and we still keep a 2003 W211 E500 as an “asset”, for occasional use. I have driven the entire evolutionary sequence of the E Class since the W210 and I can say there are losses, and gains, of course. My personal opinion as a lover of Mercedes Benz cars and not Mercedes Benz technologies (Gadgets), we lose with each generation, with more speed from the W212 onwards. They give the feeling of being "less automobiles" and more equipment, machines for simple use such as TVs, computers and dishwashers. Sad.

I believe that the W212- faclift is the last really good looking E-class. The W213- facelift have better taillights than the pre- facelift, much the same as the 214. The W214 is not anything like as good as the older models.

Those two probably only watched vids about them and havent actually touched them irl. Because the 214 looks awewome but theres much much more cheap light plastic inside.

The cheap plastic around the window switches is gone (the new 5- series has even more of that than the old 5 OR the W213 lol).

There are some nice extra touches on the newer model, but the overall exterior design of the prior generation just looks much more expensive and elegant.
