Revised Pricing and New Colour Details
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has long been one of the brand’s most important models in India, especially thanks to its long wheelbase and rear-seat comfort. The new prices make it more attainable without cutting back on features or performance.
The petrol E 200 Exclusive, which was earlier priced at Rs 76 lakh, is now listed at Rs 71 lakh. The diesel E 220d Exclusive has dropped from Rs 78 lakh to Rs 72 lakh, making it a more affordable choice in its class (all prices are ex-showroom, India).
To add some freshness, Mercedes has introduced a new Sodalite Blue shade. At the same time, Polar White and High-Tech Silver have been discontinued. Customers will still have the option of Obsidian Black and Selenite Grey.
Engines and Features Stay the Same
The E-Class remains mechanically unchanged. The E 200 is powered by a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine producing 197 hp and 320 Nm of torque. The E 220d uses a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that generates 194 hp and 400 Nm. Both engines are paired with a 9-speed automatic gearbox sending power to the rear wheels.
Inside, the cabin continues with its premium features, including dual 12.3-inch displays, a Burmester sound system, three-zone climate control, and reclining rear seats. These elements keep the E-Class positioned strongly against rivals like the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6.
With the next-generation E-Class expected to arrive in India soon, this price correction looks like a strategic step to keep the current model relevant for buyers right now.
