They are comfortable although I haven't tried the massage yet. However, I have had these seats in other Mercedes in the past and used them periodically. Massage is especially helpful when I have a back strain which happens when you are a senior citizen 😂

really like the pics. my lease on my sclass is up in 11 months and the 450 eclass interests me very much. Will be interested in you thoughts once you have an opportunity to drive it for a bit. Thanks for posting and enjoy your new ride...

Interesting read. Local dealer said would have to order to get color and features wanted. So was fine with that.
Well told me it would be 2025 with a delivery in August 2024. From what seeing in the comments here dont see
how that can be possible. They have an allocation which was going to change to my specs. I would be ok
with a 2024 with color and features want. I just dont see from comments how it could be a 2025 model

I got a call from my sales rep today to tell me MB just changed my order to a 2025 model. I still have a production date of 7/1 so no change there and still expect delivery around the end of August. Only difference is the center airbag. I was able to get a rear spoiler added to my build as well. I didn't include it initially since i couldn't find a picture with one but now have seen them and like the look.
This kinda the information the dealer told me. See if can order today, should expect in August. But some other
post make these time frames seem short ????

I’ve thought about ordering a 2025 e class all terrain although have concerns over issues with the 48 volt hybrid system. I know a lot of owners of previous in-line 6s with the 48 volt battery were having battery failure leaving the car dead. I wonder if that condition was ever corrected or maybe it was a battery supplier issue? Anyone familiar with this?

With a new car order, the only date the dealership can state with any degree of certainty is the build date. The delivery date is just a gross estimate that depends on a variety of factors. However, they typically will give a somewhat aggressive estimation of delivery timeframe of 6-8 weeks after the vehicle is assembled/built (at least that is what my dealership quoted me on my recent order of a 2025 E450). Personally, I think 8 weeks probably is close to the minimum, and a more realistic estimate on the delivery timeframe may be 8-10 weeks instead.

Most of my cars take between 4 and 6 weeks from the build date to delivery in Florida. The quickest was exactly 4 weeks. Three days from factory to ship. Nineteen days from Bremerhaven to Brunswick. Four days at the VPC. Two days from Brunswick to Clearwater. OTOH I've had cars stuck in Bremerhaven for over a week; on a ship with many ports of call; stuck at the VPC waiting for some part. Delivery times are a crap shoot - win some and lose some.

Thanks so much for tracking and posting this.
I am a first-time MB buyer who put in an order for a car back in Ferbruary, and this is the most complete posting of what I can expect.
Much appreciated!

Looking at pics of some new E450s and the redline appears to be ~5,800 RPM. Is it a variable redline that changes as the car warms up? Just wondering because it is ~6,200 on the W213 E450, and the M256 engine seems to be largely a carryover. But maybe not...
