Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz E-Class

Pros

  • Spacious And Comfortable Cabin
  • Gets A Host Of Smart Features
  • Offered In Both Petrol And Diesel Options

Cons

  • Ex-showroom price of the car is on the higher side compared to segment offerings
  • It is only offered in the long wheelbase version
  • The colour options offered on the E-Class are not exciting

Verdict

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.

Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Pros

  • Stunning Looks & Design
  • High On Features And Tech
  • Offered In Both Petrol And Diesel Options

Cons

  • Petrol Engine Feels Just About Adequate
  • Second-Row Not Good For 3 Occupants
  • Gets Faux Leather Seats Instead Of Real Leather

Verdict

The cabin of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is more spacious. On the inside you certainly get a sense of the 'Baby S' tag, perhaps more than the outside, because of a superior material quality and design layout. The sense of luxury that you get is more heightened. The C-Class isn't still the best drivers' car - the BMW 3 Series has still got that covered. But in terms of style, space, luxury and comfort, the new C-Class is compelling and pushes the envelope far.
