Question 1

Which plug-in hybrids does the new Mercedes E-Class offer?

Accepted Answer

The E 300 e with a petrol engine and the E 300 de with a diesel, both 313 hp, the E 400 e 4MATIC with 381 hp and the Mercedes-AMG E 53 Hybrid with 585 hp. All carry a battery of about 20 kWh and drive about 90 to 110 km on electricity by the official figure.

Question 2

Is the Mercedes E-Class All-Terrain sold new in the Netherlands?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as a raised Estate with four-wheel drive, with the six-cylinder E 450 4MATIC petrol or the E 450 d 4MATIC diesel, both with 367 hp or more.

Question 3

What do the E-Class Business Solution, AMG and Luxury trims mean?

Accepted Answer

Business Solution is the base specification of the E 200, E 200 d, E 300 e and E 300 de, with AMG adding a sportier look and Luxury a more classic finish. The E 400 e, E 450 and E 450 d come as AMG Line or Exclusive Line instead.

Question 4

Should I choose the E 200 d or the E 300 de?

Accepted Answer

The E 200 d is a plain diesel and pays the diesel surcharge in both BPM and MRB. The E 300 de adds a plug-in battery for about 100 km of electric driving, which lowers its CO₂ figure and so its BPM, but it weighs more and still pays the MRB diesel surcharge.
