Mercedes-Benz E-Class: photo and design of the car

The appearance of the car can not be compared with anything: a terrible look of optics, a massive wide bumper, a huge grille and low thresholds. At first it seems that these machines are produced in one of the tuning-houses in small quantities. But no, it is in this shell "Mercedes Benz E-class" - the compartment is manufactured serially, in large batches.

Compared with earlier models, the version that is produced in our days has acquired a lot of sports features. And if before it was a solid business-class car, now it's a real sports car. The lower part of the bumper is decorated with an aerodynamic spoiler, on the sides it is difficult not to notice the huge air intakes, and the optics has acquired a more relief shape and curved compartments for daytime running lights. By the way, due to this unusual location of the DRL bands, engineers managed to preserve the effect of the "four-heads", which was originally present on the machines of this series.

Interior

The interior of the car is literally stuffed with luxurious details and elements. The interior design is very modern and unusual. Behind the wheel of the Mercedes Benz E-Class you feel like a real space vehicle. Even the steering wheel has a lot of remote control buttons and an unusual insert for "aluminum". In more advanced complete sets there is an original insert "under a tree", going a strip on all perimeter of the forward panel.

The instrument panel includes 3 wells, and in one of them two arrows with their scales are located at once. A built-in on-board computer with touch screen control is visible in the center. The central console is executed symmetrically and without any twists (except for a dozen buttons under the air duct). There is also an armrest. Door upholstery is made in white-gray tones and harmonizes with the general background of the interior. There are a lot of buttons for additional control, and chrome handles. Seat cover can be either dark gray or white. But in any case, the driver and passenger seats will be executed taking into account the maximum ergonomics. By the way, the seats are equipped with a mass of various adjustments, which allows a person to set the position of the backrest for their anatomical features.

Based on all of the above, we can say that the Mercedes Benz E-Class - this is one of the few examples of how you can successfully combine prestige, solidity and sportiness into one. The Germans coped with this task, for which they have a great respect.

Mercedes Benz E-Class: engine performance

Initially, the prestigious Mercedes models were characterized by a wide range of powerplants. The Mercedes Benz E-Class was not the exception.

It is worth noting that the manufacturer significantly expanded and modernized diesel plants. So, the youngest in the line of engines is a 136-strong unit, gaining "a hundred" in 10 seconds. More powerful is a 170-horsepower diesel engine. "Hundred" he dials in 8.7 seconds.

In addition, the manufacturer offers a choice between other power plants with a capacity of 184, 204, 233, 251 and 408 horsepower. Due to such a variety of engines, the buyer can choose exactly this version of the "Mercedes", which he likes.

We also note that all of the above units comply with the Euro 5 environmental standard and have quite adequate fuel consumption.

Using the example of a 233-horsepower engine, consider the fuel consumption and dynamics of the acceleration of the sports Mercedes.

Economical

According to the passport data, the average car consumption per 100 kilometers in a mixed cycle is about 9.3 liters of fuel. At the same time, the maximum speed of the car is 247 kilometers per hour. A jerk from zero to one hundred is estimated at more than 7 seconds. As you can see, the Mercedes Benz E-Class is in the lead in all respects.

And the aggregates are equipped with two types of transmissions. This is a six-speed "mechanics" and a seven-band "automatic" TRONIC PLUS. The latter has the ability to work in a mechanical mode, in which the driver himself can switch to one or another transmission.

The station wagon in the same configuration can be purchased for 2 million 20 thousand rubles. Recall that this price is fair in relation to the basic equipment. Topovaya same cost buyers in 3 million 520 thousand rubles.
