New Mercedes-Benz E-Class: Exterior 

The E-Class maintains the similar  design language that was offered with the outgoing model but you  do get new design elements which set it apart from its predecessor. For starters, it now gets a bigger grille which houses tiny tri-pointed star elements and is surrounded by a chrome treatment. The LED headlights have received subtle changes, and are made sleeker now. The bumper gets a slightly redesigned look as well, and you also get faux air intakes.

The sleek looking sedan is now longer by 17 mm and also sits on a 15 mm larger wheelbase when compared to the outgoing model.

Coming to the rear, it features a new design for the LED tail lights which now houses tri-pointed star elements, which add a hint of coolness to the elegant looking sedan. The bumper design gets minor revisions as well. Rounding off the rear appearance is a chrome strip running across the width of the rear end, and chrome elements on the bumper which add contrast to the look.

The new E-Class can be had in five hues: Obsidian Black, High Tech Silver, Graphite Grey, Polar White and Nautic Blue.

New Mercedes-Benz E-Class: Interior 

The more serious and significant updates can be seen in the interior, where the new E-Class feels more modern and appealing. With the new version, you get Mercedes’ “Superscreen” which features a three display layout comprising a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, a 14.4-inch touchscreen infotainment and a 12.3-inch entertainment screen for the co-driver. Well, if you are someone who loves the tech and prefers having large screens then it's an addition that you will like. However, with lesser physical buttons, you will have to rely on the main screen a lot for even the simplest of tasks or functions.

It comes with 64 colours of ambient lighting which can be seen at most of the places inside the cabin. Plenty of soft touch materials further accentuate the premium feel of the cabin.
