Base price of 2017 E-Class

With the new E-Class being announced with so many technological advances, I wouldn't be surprised if the base pricing also increased accordingly. How can MB be competitive pricing wise against its main rivals?

I expect the normal base price bump, and then a whole new set of options/packages.

The GLK -> GLC price didn't increase that much. My guess is the new 2017 E will have a small base price increase but the crazy incentives will be gone to keep the actual selling price closer to MSRP.

Say good by to the $10k to $12k discounts, at least for the first MY or two.

I have seen some posts on the c-class forum with posters claiming heavy discounts that I thought weren't even possible so soon after the initial release. Some claims were 8k off for a fully loaded model.

seems with the new entry level being the CLA, and the increase in C class cars, seems natural E class prices would rise as well huh?

Mercedes currently has trouble matching their main competitors on price specification and amenities. Raising the base price of the next generation w213 will only cause more pricing disparities. This will lead Mercedes to offer heavier discounts to make W213 models more attractive to potential customers.
