Skoda Superb vs Mercedes-Benz E-Class Comparison

The main thing to consider here is the feasibility of introducing a product in a segment which has started to dry up. In my opinion, the Skoda Superb should do just fine as the car still offers great value, despite no longer being able to offer the sub-20 lakh price the last one did at launch. You get so much equipment here - Apple CarPlay, all sorts of driver aids, and safety features - it is all fantastic.

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class, more so the E450, is a fascinating machine, but don't mistake it for a pure, tyre-shredding sleeper. While its straight-six engine puts down enough power to leave sports cars staring at its taillights, the vehicle itself has matured way too much to act like a track tool. No matter what, it can't disguise its stately, comfort-first dimensions.

Bilal Firfiray rightfully pointed out in his review:

“And despite offering a bigger engine, it hasn’t given up on any of the comforts it offers to the rear seat occupant who will be buying this car for their quick commute to and from the office.”

This car wasn't built for track days or weekend canyon carving; it was built to offer effortless, continent-crossing power for the corporate elite sitting in the back seat. Nevertheless, if you are looking for a nimble, lightweight driver's car that delivers a raw adrenaline rush, you will be much happier saving your money and getting a sharper, lighter sport sedan.
