The connection between tradition and modernity is made particularly clear by a feature at the front: a black plate-like surface connects the radiator grille with the headlights. This insert in high-gloss black is visually reminiscent of the Mercedes EQ models. Depending on the equipment line, the three-dimensional radiator grille is either progressive or classic. An illuminated radiator grille surround is available as an option for all lines. With a cw – value of 0.23, the new E-Class performs very well in its vehicle segment. It corresponds to the value that its predecessor achieved when it was launched. At 2.36 square meters, the front area A of the new E-Class is slightly larger than that of the predecessor (2.34 square meters). The new E-Class is optionally available with the technology package. These include the all-round AIRMATIC air suspension with infinitely adjustable ADS+ damping and rear-axle steering. The AIRMATIC chassis with air springs and adaptive ADS+ dampers responds very sensitively. With the optional rear-axle steering, the new E-Class is particularly manoeuvrable and at the same time very stable. The steering angle on the rear axle is 4.5 degrees.

With the optional preparation for the INTELLIGENT PARKING PILOT, the E-Class is prepared for Automated Valet Parking (SAE Level 4). With the parking package with remote parking functions (optional) and the Mercedes me connect service INTELLIGENT PARKING PILOT (depending on country), the new E-Class has the technology on board to park and exit fully automatically without a driver. The prerequisite is that national laws allow the operation of automated valet parking, parking spaces are equipped with the necessary infrastructure and the corresponding Mercedes me connect service for the E-Class is available and bookable.
