Find attached. New for 2025 is the E53.

Interesting the E53 Pinnacle has both interior assist and 4 Zone Climate, neither of which are available at all on regular models. Also cool to see the E350 RWD

The 2025 is not available yet to actually order though, correct? Looking at mbusa.com does not show anything but the 2024 to build.

BenjaminKohl

mbusa.com is far out of date and not a good resource to use. It has no bearing on orderable. If the order guide is available, usually it’s possible to order.

I just placed an order for a 2024. I wonder if that will automatically switch to a 2025 since it hasn't even built yet. I'll ask my dealer.

L1Wolf

My dealer is saying that even though the order guide might be out, the 2025 won't start arriving in the USA until early 2025.

Eaton

It's possible!

I would not be surprised.

AMG Performance Seats are back in the US E-class! Last seen before the W213 facelift.

Damn MBUSA product planners all to hell for not bringing the E53 wagon over here. Or providing more options on the 2025 wagon we will get.

2025 order guide is out, but 2023 model is on the website.

Anybody placed an order for an E53 yet? My 450 arrived at the dealership last month and I turned it down due to the announcement of the E53. Curious to know what interactions others have had with regards to the car.

Man oh man they've got to get rid of that all-terrain nonsense. It looks like a $90K Subaru Outback. Love to order a new car but the current one is too much tech and too little style. And can we please, please have some buttons back?

same here, no updates from my dealer as of yet

Does anyone know what the base price of the 2025 E350 sedan is? Not the 4matic version. Thanks for all replies.

cruise2024

Base prices for all 2025 W214 E350/E450 models have not been announced by MB yet. However, even though there are no changes in prices for optional features/accessories according to the just released official 2025 Order Guide, an increase in the base prices for 2025 W214 is likely since there is an additional center air bag being introduced as a standard feature in the new model year. Since there is no non-4matic version for the 2024 model year, one will have to use 2023 W213 as a reference to gauge/estimate the base price of a 2025 W214 in lieu of an official base pricing announcement from MB.

BenjaminKohl

I'd expect the '25 E350 4Matic to start a few hundred dollars more then the 2024, and the RWD to be $2,000 cheaper then the 4Matic. So call it around $1,000-$1,500 less for a '25 RWD vs a '24 4Matic.

Submitted my order in February 2024. Dealer rep informed me today that my E450 will be a 2025 because model year changes are happening now. Production projected to be finished in August 2024 for my vehicle.

cruise2024

This necessarily means that your car order has never proceeded to build/assemble stage (or MB somehow gave your allocation to someone else, which is unlikely). I placed an order for a 2025 E450 last week and was given a build date of 7/31. Apparently, the change-over date to the production of 2025 models coincides with the half-year mark (7/1/2024). Hopefully, there will not be a significant increase in the base prices of 2025 W214 compared to 2024 versions.

L1Wolf

Not surprising with the dates you have been told. This should remove all speculation that your car was built but being held due to a parts shortage. Although it's odd that they would tell you projected finish month and not a production date. Based on the timelines of posts from those that have already received their cars, it only takes a few days to build. I think it's very possible the dealer messed up and didn't submit your order correctly the first time. If it was MB that messed up, you would think they would move you to the front of the line.

I was thinking the same thing. Other possibilities are that the car was damaged or found defective during production and it could not be completed. Or, the dealer could have messed up on the initial order and it never submitted.

That is what my dealer told me. My order was initially a 2024 with a production date of 7/1 but then changed to a 2025 automatically but still with a 7/1 production date. Maybe mine will be the first production 2025.

Well, that may depend on what you think is significant. I would expect a few hundred increase due to the addition of the center airbag. Other than that, the car is the same so I wouldn't expect anything more.

cruise2024

There is always the "excuse" of yearly inflation. With a base price of $68,000 for E450 W214, an increase of 3% due to inflation equates to $2,000. Couple that with the anticipated $500-$750 rise in the cost of the center airbag as standard feature, it can amount to $2,500 to $2,750 (hopefully, it will not come to that).

placed order for 25, dealer said accepted . maybe end of august

spartan63amg

for a e53? or regular e class?

btx24

Just the regular US based e450

PSims

If this holds true then those of us expecting a 2025 this year, for whatever reasons we were told to believe so, are in for a surprise! I’m expecting an update from my dealer rep in the next two weeks so it’ll be interesting to see if MB is standing by Summer/Fall 2024 deliveries for 2025 E-Class mentioned in this thread.

L1Wolf

That is an outdated and obsolete post. The same dealer/sales rep called me weeks ago and said my 2024 order changed to a 2025 but with the same production date of July 1st. Delivery is still estimated at late August.

btx24

My date is a couple weeks after you on build. With it being a carryover year doubt they would even slow the line down.
Dealer looked at mine and 25 guide saw no changes. Said if was when entered on allocation would have kicked
something back

Hello everyone, new member here!

We (my wife and I) recently left the "world of Jaguars", for various reasons, and moved over to the Mercedes-Benz brand, about 3 months ago. We traded our F-Pace Jag in, on a GLE 450, and simply sold our XJ-L sedan, with no immediate plans to replace it. However, I've been "jonesing" to have a sedan back in the garage, and I've been thinking about an E Class. If I understand correctly, you folks are saying that I can place an order for one, now, and it will be a 2025 model?

Thanks for any information that you can provide!
