New Facelifted E Class Gallery

Here it is boys and girls, the new facelifted E class.

https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/n...class-facelift

https://www.motor1.com/news/394155/m...views-e-class/

basically looks like mbux, new steering wheel and new engines....hopefully they looked into improving the ride quality as well... suspension, brakes, overall driving feel....

seems like the base 4cyl engine will not be hybrid assisted...from what i read?... Hoping the new C class that comes out this year will be better than this E class as it will be a brand new C class and its supposed to have the new larger screens like the S Class will and all other new things....

The engineer in one of the online videos said they have worked hard to improve the ride quality especially in the ones with base suspension. They have lowered the car to assist with that.

I thought I heard him say it was to improve aerodynamics and therefore fuel economy.

I think he said it was 15 mm lower

Those rear lights are exactly the same shape as the A Class sedan. If the E looks like an A - i'm out.

Maybe it is too early... but I flat out hate it. What a regression... frightened for the new S-Class.

I've seen W223 S-Class rear shots that look somewhat similar, but who knows. Could very well be the new family design.

Am I the only one who likes that rear end more than the current version. I always thought that the facelift W212 was the best looking e class and the W213 was a bit dull. This new one looks more like the W212 refresh which makes me very happy.

Instead of MB copying Mazda styling, they should have copied the Maserati style.

Don't think so. Mercedes sedans have been on a 7 year product cycle. 2015+7=2022 Should show up sometime in 2021. The last E facelift was 2014 the new C was a 2015 (USA)

Looks very Japanese to me. W212 before the facelift is still my favourite E-Class exterior wise.

I am disappointed. As I find the W222 heat and tails lights more appealing than the W213's I actually hoped that they would tune up the front and back to look more like the W222 so that I could buy a smaller S class.
