2007 mercedes-benz e-class review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Fresh appearance, improved performance. introductionthe mercedes-benz e-class features more powerful engines for 2007, along with subtle styling changes, new interior elements, and a few tweaks for handling and safety. the e-class in many ways epitomizes the mercedes-benz brand. It's the company's best selling line worldwide and one of the best-selling mercedes models in the united states. the e-class describes a full line of big, roomy sedans that are solid, safe, practical, comfortable, luxurious, and fast. Yet the cost of operating the popular e350, in terms of fuel consumption and maintenance, can be quite reasonable. The e-class has sedans that seat five, wagons that seat seven, power from a v6, two v8s and a turbocharged v6 diesel, optional weather-busting all-wheel drive and screaming super-performance models from supertuner amg. for 2007, there are changes in e-class nomenclature, thanks to new engines. The e500 sedan has become the e550 sedan, the new badge indicating it's powered by the 5. 5-liter v8 that first appeared in the 2006 s-class. The e550's double overhead cam v8 generates 382 horsepower compared to the 302 horsepower from the single overhead cam v8 it replaces, yet with a seven-speed automatic transmission, the e550 achieves the same estimated mileage as its less powerful predecessor. The e550 4matic sedan retains its five-speed automatic. The e350 benefits from a v6 that was upgraded last year and is offered as a sedan and a wagon. meanwhile, there is no better example of how far passenger car diesel technology has advanced than the new e320 bluetec sedan, which replaces the e320 cdi. The impressive common-rail direct-injection turbodiesel engine comes with a more sophisticated exhaust system that makes it the only diesel-powered passenger car available in the u. During the 2007 model year. It's not only more powerful than the outgoing e320 cdi with 210 horsepower and a muscular 388 pound-feet of torque, but it also returns the outgoing cdi's excellent epa-estimated fuel mileage of 27 city/37 highway mpg. also new for 2007 are the e63 amg sedan and wagon. It's hard to conceive of a faster, sportier team of luxury cars than the outgoing e55 amgs, but the completely new 507-hp 6. 2-liter v8 that replaces the e55's 469-hp supercharged v8 makes the e63s the fastest e-class models ever built. And though capable of monstrous acceleration (0 to 60 mph in just 4. 3 seconds) and a top speed of 180 mph (were it not for electronics that limit top speed to 155 mph), the amgs boast the touches of luxury expected at the upper end of the market. the mercedes e-class is an icon, a benchmark in its class. The e350 sedan 51,325) comes with a seven-speed automatic while the all-wheel-drive 4matic 53,825) has a five-speed automatic. E350s are available in sport or luxury trim. The e320 bluetec 52,325) is equipped identically to the e350 luxury version, but features the turbodiesel engine. the e350 4matic wagon 56,475) is equipped comparably to the sedan. A power liftgate and cargo organizer are standard, along with a folding third seat that increases passenger capacity to seven. standard features include fully automatic dual-zone climate control, 10-way power front seats with leather seating surfaces and memory, real burl walnut trim, a power tilt and telescoping steering wheel, a nine-speaker surround-sound stereo, power windows with one-touch express up and down, auto-dimming mirrors and rain-sensing windshield wipers. New standard equipment for 2007 includes a glass sunroof, six-disc cd changer, harman/kardon logic 7 premium audio and, in the wagon, a power liftgate. luxury trim comes with 17-inch wheels, comfort suspension, green-tinted glass and burl walnut wood trim. Sport trim includes 18-inch twin-spoke wheels, a sport rear bumper with dual exhaust pipes, lowered sports suspension, blue-tinted glass, black bird's eye maple wood trim, white gauges, and a matte chrome gearshift surround. options include the premium 1 package 2,390) with phone pre-wiring, dvd navigation, sirius satellite radio, power rear window sunshade and heated front seats. Premium ii 4,290) adds headlamp washers, a bi-xenon active light system, cornering fog lamps, and keyless go to that list. Options include the premium i package 2,840), which adds active ventilated seats to the e350's similar package, while premium ii 4,740) is identical in content to the e350's. the e63 amg sedan 85,375) and wagon 86,175) include the 507-hp v8, a seven-speed automatic with steering-wheel-mounted shift paddles, massive 18-inch tires and wheels, performance brakes, a lowered chassis and an aggressively tuned air suspension. They're distinguished by unique body touches and interior trim, deeply sculpted sports seats and amg markings. Options are similar to those on the other e-class models. safety features that come standard on all models include eight airbags: dual front airbags, side-impact airbags for front and rear passengers, and head-protection curtains that run the length of the cabin on both sides. The airbag management system employs multiple impact sensors designed to more precisely control the timing and rate of deployment. The system accounts for the weight of a front-seat passenger and controls seatbelt pretensioners according to the force of impact. Active safety features start with anti-skid stability electronics and the latest evolution of abs. safety is further enhanced by the pre-safe system, which was engineered to recognize critical situations as they develop and prepare both the passengers and the car for the crisis. If braking deceleration exceeds a certain level or the vehicle threatens to skid, the system tensions the front seatbelts, adjusts the position of the passenger seat for optimum positioning relative to. walkaroundbefore the launch of the gorgeous cls sedan/coupe, the mercedes-benz e-class was widely considered to be the most successful design among the company's current sedans. Up front, the bumper and radiator grille now have a pronounced v-shape, the spoiler is lower, and, for a striking effect, the twin headlamps sport transparent louvers over their top sections. A finishing touch is the white leds used for the parking lights. the front end's new look for 2007 is carried to the rear along deeper side skirts to a new rear bumper and taillight configuration. This was the first mercedes sedan to use aluminum body components extensively, starting with the hood, front fenders, trunk lid, front crossmember and front subframe. Aluminum is lighter and stronger but more expensive than steel. Aluminum amounts to 10 percent of the body's weight. About 37 percent of the total is modern high-strength steel alloys. from the aerodynamic perspective, the e-class is one of the slipperiest sedans extant. Its 0. 27 coefficient of drag, identical to the 2006 model, is a benchmark for sedans and helps minimize wind noise and maximize fuel economy. the e-class wagon, this year available only in e350 and e63 amg versions, will never be mistaken for anything but a wagon. Nonetheless, it is impressively sleek, and some critics find the tear-drop taper of the rear roof more aesthetically pleasing than the trunk deck on the sedans. The exterior revisions on the sedan apply to the wagon. The wagon has been fitted with a larger center brake light. The wagon's added cargo-passenger flexibility is welcome. With their lower body cladding and 18-inch wheels, the e63s look racy and aggressive. The aerodynamic aids are for downforce, to improve grip in fast corners. interiorwe really enjoy the mercedes e-class interior. Like its exterior styling, we consider the e-class cabin to be some of.
