June 02, 2017: Mercedes-Benz has launched the third variant of the E-Class in India - the E 220 d - today. It is priced at Rs 57.14 lakh (ex-showroom Pune). With the E 220 d, Mercedes-Benz also introduced its new 2.0-litre diesel engine which replaces the older 2.1-litre unit.
The new 4-cylinder engine produces 194PS of power and 400Nm of torque. It comes paired to a 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission that sends the power to the rear wheels. The setup is enough for the executive saloon to complete the 0-100kmph sprint in 7.3 seconds and hit a top speed of 240kmph.
Like the E 200, the E 220 d comes with features like LED-powered headlamps, taillamps and daytime running lights (DRLs), rain-sensing windscreen wipers, 17-inch alloy wheels, leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, reclining rear seats with comfort headrest, panoramic sunroof, self-park technology, 7 airbags, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, a 12.3-inch high-resolution media display and chauffeur package with memory function.
Service packages for the E 220 d start from Rs 76,600 for a span of two years. Mercedes-Benz is also offering an extended warranty up to 6 years under Advance Assurance Program starting at Rs 75,200. Its list of rivals include the BMW 5 Series, Audi A6, Volvo S90 and the Jaguar XF.
Mercedes-Benz is one of the old car manufacturers in the world who have a great name in luxury and premium car segment and E class is their flagship model which has a great history behind it and has a great fan following for this model.

The fit-for-a king backseat experience of the S-Class is what makes most people aspire a Mercedes. While the flagship remains out of reach for most, the E-Class delivers a fine sense of luxury at a much more accessible price tag. However, now with the all-new E-Class, Mercedes has given Indian buyers what they dreamt of: to have an S-Class for E-Class money. The all-new 10th-generation E-Class has come to India in its long-wheelbase version, which promises a limousine-like experience in the backseat but at a mildly higher price. The new Mercedes will be going up against Volvo's very capable all-new S90 and BMW's soon to be launched new-generation 5-Series and it will also have to deal with Audi's all-rounder, the A6, and Jaguar's new XF. Has the new E-Class come prepared?
Things We Like in E-Class
Feels luxurious enough.
Fantastic seats - help you relax no matter how long or short the journey.
Class-leading comfort in the backseat.
Incredible amount of space makes it feel like it is from a class above.
Things We Don't Like in E-Class
Consider the E-Class as a four-seater.
Misses out on some features - cup holders at the rear, ventilated seats, and infotainment controls for rear passengers.
Boot space is reduced by space saver.
The lack of touch functionality makes using Apple CarPlay quite pointless.
The lack of touch functionality makes using Apple CarPlay quite pointless.
Stand Out Features
Only car in class to offer air suspension at the front and rear.
64 colour ambient lighting
Touch sensitive controls on the steering wheel are a segment-first and increase the geek factor.
CarDekho Verdict
The 10th generation E-Class is a game changer. Not only does it change what we expect from a Mercedes E-Class, but also changes our expectations from the segment. Yes, the E-Class could do with a bit more equipment for a greater sense of luxury, but the overall smoothness, quietness and quality of the cabin make the experience properly luxurious.
"The new E is also quick and effortless to drive. "
The only limitation of this big luxury sedan is that it feels its size when you try to drive in a sporty manner. Nonetheless, it is controlled and confident at high speeds too. While prices aren't available now, for the chauffeur-driven the new E-Class is now the default pick in the segment.
