The latest addition to the E-Class lineup is the Routines feature. This unique feature allows you to personalize your driving experience. You can customize the cabin lighting, adjust the HVAC settings, and even control the seat heaters based on specific triggers like external temperature. Say goodbye to manually adjusting these settings!

Mercedes is also looking to integrate Routines with their ChatGPT technology, which was recently introduced in beta. While this integration might sound unsettling to some, it will likely remain optional for the time being.

Now, let’s shift gears and focus on performance. In the United States, the new E-Class will be available in two versions. The first is the E350 4MATIC, equipped with a 2.9-liter inline-four cylinder engine and a 48-volt mild hybrid system. This combination delivers 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Moving up the lineup, we have the E450 4MATIC, featuring a larger 3.0-liter inline-six engine and the same hybrid system. This more powerful option offers an impressive 475 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. It’s worth noting that every E-Class model comes with hybrid technology, although a plug-in model will not be initially available in the United States.

Both models are paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission and feature 4MATIC all-wheel drive for enhanced traction and stability.
