E400/450 sound difference
Hi All,
Im looking at buying a 2019-2020 E400 or E450 saloon/coupe very soon, I thought these were different power levels of the same engine but the 400 seems to sound a lot better. Is there a year where they changed the exhausts or anything? It's difficult to tell over YouTube videos etc but the 450 seems very quiet in comparison.
Thanks for any advice,
Dan

Thanks stark, is there much of a difference performance wise? I quite like the sound of the E400 and am tempted just to go that way. Guessing gas milage is similar?

The E450 has more ho and torque, and in my opinion a little more refined, has the updated command system compared to the E400. If you have navigation you can get traffic with the E450, can’t with the 2018 E400.
I would get the E450
