5 reasons to buy the 2023 Mercedes-Benz E450

1. Some like it hot 

If you're picky about the temperature of your vehicle, you'll appreciate that heated seats and dual automatic climate controls are standard on the 2023 Mercedes-Benz E450. If you want to take warmth to the next level, look for available features like a heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, and heated armrest. Something else you'll want to watch for: the available active multi-contour front seats that offer things like rapid heating and hot stone massages.  

2. Modern infotainment 

The Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX), with the native navigation, in the 2023 Mercedes Benz E450 is a tech-forward system that allows multiple ways to interface with it.

It has a touch screen, touchpad, and steering wheel touch controls as well as natural voice controls activated with the verbal cue of "Hey Mercedes...". What's more, this system also allows for Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto integration. 

3. Useful driver-assist tech 

A lot of driver-assist technology is aggressive, but the 2023 Mercedes-Benz E450 errs on the side of caution, ensuring the driver is always in control. At a basic level, you have blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking, and a rearview camera. If you're looking for a little more tech, the E450 has that, too. Be on the lookout for features like a head-up display, a 360-degree camera, hands-on adaptive cruise control, active steering assist, cross-traffic alerts, lane keep assist, and a semi-autonomous hands-free park assist for parallel and perpendicular parking.  

4. Fuel sipping, yet powerful 

If you want power but don't want extra trips to the gas station, you'll appreciate the turbocharged 326-hp 3.0L inline six-cylinder engine in the 2023 Mercedes-Benz E450. The hybrid-integrated starter-generator pairs with this powertrain seamlessly shuts down the engine when idling as well as gives a gas-free power boost under hard acceleration. The EPA estimates will vary based on body style and whether you have all-wheel drive, but on the high end, you'll get 26 mpg in combined driving for the all-wheel-drive sedan.

Both the coupe and the wagon with AWD will get an EPA estimated 24 mpg in combined driving, and the rear-wheel drive convertible will get 25 mpg.

5. Interior quietness 

If you need more calm and quiet in your life, slipping behind the wheel of the 2023 Mercedes-Benz E450 is like taking a break from the chaos. The supple seats and luxurious touchpoints add to the quiet luxury, and the solid thwap of closing the doors shuts out the outside world. The seats are highly adjustable, and you can change the 64-color ambient lighting system to mirror your mood.
