Will inline six cylinder engine come in 2021 W213?

I rarely visit this forum, but it’s getting time to replace the wife’s 2016 E350 and I was hoping to get her one with the new Inline Six. Is that engine going to make it into the E Class sedans with the MY2021 face lift?

Thats what all the rumor mill sites say, the inline 6 with a mild hybrid similar to what's in the E53 now but probably detuned to around 380 hp or so. I guess nobody really knows for sure at this point.

If it gets the I6 (which I believe it will) it will be the same I6 that is in the CLS450, 362hp. Not 380hp.

362 hp plus 21 hp hybrid electric power = 383 hp. Zero to 60 in 4.5 seconds. The E450 Sedan V6 is Zero to 60 in 4.8 seconds.

That review also mentions the "Infuriating MBUX infotainment system". As I said elsewhere, MBUX is not getting good reviews generally.

Ya makes me think my 2019s might be long term keepers. I don’t like touch screens and I don’t like hybrids.

That is not how the overall power is calculated. The EQ boost function serves as a filler to eliminate turbo lag, not total system power which is why the hp rating is 362hp, not 383hp.

The reviews I’ve seen on the MBUX system have been stellar! Everyone loves it. The depth of customization controls graphics! Reviewers say is the best in the business

Operationally, most reviews I have seen have been negative. Although I imagine it's just what you get used to. I'm sure the graphics will be improved, though.
