Mercedes E-Class 2013 pictures

<span>The Mercedes E-Class is an executive saloon that rivals the the Jaguar XF, BMW 5 Series and Audi A6. Unlike its sportier rivals, the E-Class has always taken towards the more&nbsp;comfortable approach.</span>

The E-Class is available in saloon, estate, and three-door coupe and convertible bodystyles. There are two trim lines available in SE and AMG Line form, with two AMG models at the top of the range.

<span>The Mercedes E-Class is still good to drive, it just can't really compete with the BMW 5 Series if you're passionate about handling. Instead, it focuses on comfort and refinement, suppressing wind and tyre noise well.</span>

<span>The most efficient engine in the range is the&nbsp;</span>E300 BlueTEC Hybrid<span>,&nbsp;which returns an excellent 68.9mpg.</span>

<span>The interior of the E-Class is a nice place to be. A&nbsp;great driving position and good visibility all add to the E-Class’ appeal behind the wheel.</span>

<span>Front and rear LED lights on the E-Class make it really stand out at night.</span>

<span>Despits the drive biased towards comfort, the Mercedes E-Class still possesses strong and progressive brakes and direct steering. It's automatic-only too.</span>

The Mercedes E-Class is well equipped with all models coming with&nbsp;leather seats, climate control and Mercedes' COMAND infotainment system.

<span>Five adults can easily sit comfortably in the E-Class thanks to the generous amounts of leg and headroom on offer. The rear middle passenger still has to contend with a large transmission tunnel though, as with the E-Class' rival

<span>The Mercedes E-Class has 540 litres of boot space, which is more than both the Audi A6 and BMW 5 Series. Strangely, 60:40 split-folding rear seats are only available as an option.</span>
