Mercedes-Benz E-Class vs BMW M3 Comparison

The new E-Class debuts with comprehensive changes on exterior styling and design, significant interior updates along with the integration of latest new-generation NTG 6 telematics and of course the MBUX system, which makes it a connected car. Prices of the E-Class top out at ₹ 80.9 lakh (ex-showroom India). The rear has been newly designed and the new split tail light design gives it a fresh appeal.

The BMW M3 is an absolute beast on the road. While it keeps its family credentials alive and kicking, a true track car’s raw speed also lies resting within its DNA, letting you pull hard all the way to the redline. To keep you out of trouble when you’re feeling adventurous, the BMW M3’s brake bite is tremendous as well, letting you enjoy empty stretches without any second thoughts. Besides, there’s also an EV variant that could hit Indian shores by 2027, while you also need to check whether the previous models are still on retail or not.

Sure, the original's firm suspension may not be up to the mark when going through broken city streets, or the styling might not appeal to all. But those complaints lose ground when you feel how direct the sedan’s steering is, and how the car’s four-door practicality is actually non-negotiable if you're a family man. If you have the budget and want a car that can comfortably handle the daily office commute before hitting a weekend trip, there’s no point in hesitating to bring the BMW M3 home.
