2020 e350 vs 2019 e300 differences?

Going to pickup either a 2019 4matic e300 or 2020 e350. Almost identical with the exception the 2019 is 4matic and has parking assist. 2020 is not for attic and does not have parking assist but is $3700 more. My first thought was to go with the newer version as I don’t believe I’d use park assist anyway but looking for opinions. Thanks in advance.

Engine in the 2020 is a big improvement. Smoother, quieter and more power.

the 2020 has a newer engine and a few more HP. If the park assist comes with the 3D cameras, you might want to consider the 2019.

One thing is missing in this buy decision - how many miles are on these two cars and what is their care history?

2020 has standard dual 12.3” screens and slightly more power. For me, assuming same mile/yr usage between both cars and have good history if the 2019 has the digital screens, more options and priced $3700 lower than the 2020, I’ll take it. If you need more power you can always add a tune. 25hp difference wont make much difference in daily driving, unless you are racing from stop lights. Even then it’s still marginal.

Gotta go with your guts as well… which of these two feels right to you.

Only 14 extra hp in the 2020.
