Under development for more than three years, the current-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class has been unveiled at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Sporting a new exterior based on the brand’s recent design language and an interior inspired by the S-Class, the new midsize is a massive improvement over what BMW and Audi have to offer in this segment. Although many have criticized its styling for being to similar to the C-Class and S-Class, the E-Class is downright impressive when it comes to safety and comfort features, offering numerous innovative technologies.
Now that the new E-Class is already in dealerships, Mercedes-Benz is planing to launch at least three more versions of the midsize. One of them is the station wagon and it broke cover ahead of its public debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show in October.
Having already seen the sedan back in January 2016, the grocery getter wasn’t much of a mystery in terms of design, despite Mercedes’ efforts to keep the vehicle under wraps during on-the-road testing. With the first official photos already online, we received confirmation that the wagon borrows more than 75-percent of its exterior design from the four-door and looks like a larger C-Class Wagon.
Similarities aside, the new E-Class estate is quite the pretty and innovative hauler. Described as "the most intelligent wagon that Mercedes-Benz has ever built," it’s the only semi-autonomous grocery getter on the market and arguably the most advanced and luxurious five-door you can buy for the 2017 model year. How does it compare with its most important competitors? Keep reading to find out.
