Fuel Tank is small

The fuel tank on the W213 is so much smaller than my w212, surprised how often I have to fill up also. Pretty insane lol. Hopefully they increase the size in the next gen,

Like the majority of humans, I'm not a fan of getting gas. Within first month of ownership, I ran out of gas and had to use MBrace. Works great by the way; they sent someone out immediately.

It's the same size as was on my E550 2012! I think you are complaining about the mpg which is around 18 vs 25-28. Got to pay to play. Oh, wait, you're in NYC. Your mpg will be closer to 14. 😀

Most of my miles are highway (150 RT), but I would say so far my mpg is pretty similar to what I got in the 212, actually pretty reasonable for a twin turbo V8. I can easily get two trips down on 1 tank and thats probably 50% casual driving in sport w/ exhaust and the other 50% using paddles in S+ and aggressive throttle

The range is a little on the light side. On the highway I am getting over 20 mpg which is good given the power.

W212 does not have a larger fuel tank. They are the same.

What are your "normal highway speeds" that are not in within the break in rules? that make you think you will get better gas mileage afterwards? Are you in Germany also? Gas mileage does not get much better with the higher speeds unless you are very delicate on the throttle

Lol

My GLE63s has 24 gallon tank and with all city driving I'm lucky to get 200 miles a tank. That's 9 mpg.

I have a little over 11,000 miles on my MY2018. Highway mileage (in Comfort setting) is around 22 which assumes a significant amount of 4-cyl operation. My average mpg for the life of the vehicle is currently 18.3. I am running all-season Bridgestone RE980AS tires. Some people have reported a drop in mpg with those fitted, but I haven't noticed any significant difference from my Michelin PS4 summer tires. I'm probably not going to mount that tire/wheel assembly again when the weather gets warmer and will put them on the marketplace in the Spring for sale. It's too bad that I didn't know about the all-season tire option before I purchased an entire new set of cross-forged OEM wheels.

yeah, but was optional, now is default. Mine came with a 66l despite being a MY19... Don't know if it is because it was configured when the slots were for my18 :/
