2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 350

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 350 Sedan 4D stands as a magnificent, masterfully engineered pinnacle of executive luxury, anchoring the celebrated final model year of the iconic 'W212' fourth-generation global architecture. Built on an ultra-rigid high-strength steel unibody frame layout engineered for acoustic insulation and structural safety, this sophisticated five-passenger flagship shuns the harsh driving habits of sports-tuned compacts in favor of a serene, vibration-isolated ride quality and vault-like tracking composure. Under the sculpted aluminum hood sits a highly responsive, naturally aspirated 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve Direct Injection V6 engine featuring VVT variable valve timing, hammering out a smooth, linear 302 horsepower at 6,500 RPM and a muscular 273 lb-ft of torque available across a broad powerband from 3,500 to 5,200 RPM. This immediate mechanical core is managed by an advanced, smooth-shifting 7G-TRONIC PLUS 7-speed automatic transmission featuring steering-wheel-mounted aluminum shift paddles and DIRECT SELECT console gear control, routing power to the pavement via an agile rear-wheel-drive configuration or Mercedes-Benz’s intelligent 4MATIC® permanent All-Wheel Drive system. The driving experience is completely characterized by its magic-carpet ride quality and refined chassis control, courtesy of a performance-tuned AGILITY CONTROL® suspension matrix featuring selective damping systems paired with an independent multi-link setup at both front and rear axles with gas-pressurized shock absorbers.
On the exterior, the 2016 E 350 executes a stunning styling triumph defined by classic executive elegance, featuring a bold twin-louvre radiator grille, signature LED double-eyepatch headlights, LED daytime running lights, and full LED taillamps. Elegant body contours feature polished chrome window surrounds, body-colored power-folding heated auto-dimming side mirrors with integrated turn signals, deep-tinted glass, dual chrome-tipped integrated exhaust finishers, and a commanding stance rolling proudly on 18-inch 5-spoke aluminum alloy wheels wrapped in premium all-season tires. Inside, the driver-centric cockpit welcomes up to five adult occupants into an opulent, ultra-durable luxury sanctuary lined with hand-tailored contrast-stitched finishes, authentic Burl Walnut or Black Ash wood trim, and deeply cushioned seats draped in premium, wear-resistant MB-Tex leatherette or available Genuine Leather upholstery. This upscale layout features 14-way power adjustable front bucket seats with 3-position driver memory blocks, multi-stage heating and ventilation options, a power tilt-and-telescoping leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control with an advanced air filtration network, a power sliding glass sunroof, customizable ambient LED interior lighting, and a high-resolution 7.0-inch central display screen driven by the COMAND® infotainment operating system featuring factory GPS navigation, hands-free Bluetooth® phone and audio streaming, fast-charging USB ports, HD Radio®, SiriusXM® satellite radio, a customizable digital driver information display nested within the gauges, and a high-fidelity 8-speaker audio network (or available premium 14-speaker harman/kardon® LOGIC7® Surround Sound system).
Practicality and space utilization are handled with sleek executive efficiency, matching the demands of an active lifestyle or professional business operation. The intelligent interior packaging treats rear passengers to exceptional adult-sized headroom and legroom alongside a fold-down rear armrest with integrated storage and cupholders. The rear cargo bay opens wide via an electronic remote trunk release to reveal a highly generous 15.9 cubic feet of flat cargo trunk space, easily accommodating travel luggage sets, media camera gear packages, or commercial inventory safely away from the elements.
