Why it stands out

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class stands out as a used luxury sedan that blends traditional Mercedes-Benz polish with a distinctly modern feel. In its fifth-generation form, it looks more like a scaled-down S-Class, and the cabin reinforces that impression with a swoopy dashboard, circular air vents, and, in most versions, two side-by-side 12.3-inch display screens that create the appearance of one large screen. Standard equipment is generous, with electric adjustment for the steering wheel and front seats, a rear-view camera, satellite navigation, LED headlamps, and a wide range of driver assistance safety features. It also feels properly upscale, with a reputation for being beautifully built and generally reliable, while still offering the comfort and space buyers expect from an E-Class.

For 2016, the appeal is also in the breadth of the model’s engineering. The range included 2.0-litre four-cylinder E300 models, 3.0-litre six-cylinder E400 versions, and high-performance Mercedes-AMG E 43 and Mercedes-AMG E 53 models, while Mercedes-AMG E 63 variants brought a 4.0-litre V8. All had a turbo and a nine-speed automatic transmission as standard, and most versions in Canada came with 4Matic all-wheel drive as standard. That said, the car’s strengths come with a few cautions: some owners have reported shuddering brakes and glitchy infotainment systems, and early E300 models could have a cracked piston issue. Air suspension can also be expensive to repair, so it is worth checking carefully on any example equipped with it.

As a used buy, the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is appealing because it delivers a lot of luxury and technology for the money. It was originally priced from $60,000 to more than $130,000 when new, and used examples span a wide range depending on body style, engine, and equipment. For shoppers who want a premium mid-size car that feels substantial, well equipped, and still current, it remains one of the strongest choices in its class.
