Is the '17 Mercedes E300 Better Than The S -Class For Half The Price? 

Mercedes even makes crashes comfy

The E class and S class look so similar now. E class definitely look younger and more sporty.

Next videos: 5 Reasons why I hate my S Class 4 Reasons why I regret buying my S class (#2 will INFURIATE you, and #4 will shock you!!!) 10 Reasons why you should buy an E class

One of the best e class videos I've seen

I've got to tell you, this guy addresses certain substantive issues that other reviewers don't. I've watched at least five reviews on cars and he covers everything relevant, and does it in a concise way. Very good!

About German cars having 8-9 speed transmissions, people keep forgetting that these were built to CRUISE at 155 mph. You NEED 2-3 overdrive gears to do that efficiently and luxuriously. 6 close ratio gears for acceleration and response plus 2-3 overdrive gears for cruising is actually smart. Stop acting like the world has 50 mph speed limits on highways, Americans.

And this is why Mercedes is better than BMW. BMW has the same old interior and same old look. No innovation whatsoever.

Are the airbags made from leather as well?

this is a baby s class lol

241 hp enough for driving on a road u igronant fools

Thank god they didnt just glue on a 35 dollar tablet on dash

Am i the only one that thinks mercedes should work on their exterior design? The interior of most modern day mercs are Amazing, but the exterior, to me, seems to "meh" compared to the interior...

I think the American market has an obscured perspective of necessary engine power. In Germany for example, the country with the unrestricted Autobahn, the average horsepower of all the cars in the country is 140. With 140hp you can get to 125mph quite easily on the highway. It seems Americans view cars with anything less than 200hp as slow? Obviously this is because of the much lower cost of fuel in America allowing for cars to have more powerful engines despite using more fuel. Do you really need a lot of power on an interstate to reach 70mph?

"Kinda hard to make a 2 liter 4 cyl engine sound good tbh" fucking Honda S2000 biotch

The production on this channel is getting better by the day, keep up the awesome work Parker and Eddie.

Interior rivals the Bentley is a stretch...

I can plan it: Parker will buy an E63 after the lease on the S-Class is over

This review surprised me for how well it was done and you were very thorough, really well done Parker.

this is the best edited and professional video of yours! It's great!

Video angles on point this video! Great Work!

Possibly the most beautiful interior available on a production automobile today.

The S class pioneers this technology and then it trickles down to lower model ranges over time. Most likely Mercedes will release a refreshed S class soon that employs even more tech that is strictly exclusive to the S class (since it was really the first car to use the new styling ques that Mercedes now uses on almost all cars).

Hi loved your videos, 1 video a day is good, please keep it up!

Most informative video on the new E-Class and your candor is much appreciated.

If you can't perpendicular park you need a specialist

Good review. You touched on all the points as to why my wife prefers her Mercedes over my BMW.

From the production point of view this is your best video yet. Keep it up!!!

love the pan shot and the music, great job

This one looks so much better than the old model

I have thought this for the last year! However the new S class comes out this year and looks a lot better than the current model

Well spoken review. Slow, clear and to the point. This guy is acing it. respect

to be honest your video become better and better i like it keep it up man!

only in America this engine is regarded as an economy engine! most of people are driving autos with 100-150 hp and do you say that 240 hp is not enough? do you live and drive in a race circuit every day? that would be awkward....;)

I wish they had this interior in the old shape E class

Great review! Very well done.

Although the 4cyl engine may not be a "Mercedes-standard", it's definitely not a slouch. It can get to 60 in around 6.2 seconds which isn't exactly slow. It's plenty quick for non-enthusiasts who want a smooth and engaging drive with reasonable fuel mileage. But it will be interesting to see what MB brings to the table with their more powerful offerings.

While he is bitching about how slow the engine is, it honestly not that bad. The 2 liter 4 banger still reaches 60 in 6.3 seconds, which is about the same as the accord V6. For your average driver this car is quick. Lastly, this engine is still a lot better than the base engines that you get in other markets. I agree having a 3 liter twin turbo 6 is better, I still feel you are being a little annoying about how the engine is too small. Also just to let you know that the 528i employs a 2.0 liter turbo 4 banger.

1:27 Dude, that car is like 60 000 dollars, at least, I think it's what we should expect for that amount I always wondered why we cannot get an S class into a small car, why if I want luxury I have to drive a 100 000 dollars 6 m long car? why they never make a small car like a Golf with an incredible interior ?maybe some people love luxury but hate big cars. Maybe I like luxury but I don't want to pay tax for a 6 l engine, why can't I have luxury with a small engine? this dude, seems upset about the 2 l engine, WTF has that got to do with anything? 2 l engine is a powerful engine, why you need a 12l on a car? you want to use it to pull 300 m long ships trough the Panama Canal? the horrible tastes most people have, make companies create and sell crazy useless ideas just because you idiots buy them. My idea of a car, is luxury inside, different sizes, from smart to s class, safe and very durable, if I pay 50 000 for a stupid car that does one thing only and that is go from A to B, at least make it work for 30 years without any problems... no I pay 100 000 for an S class and after 4 years I have to already invest 5000 into it ....I don't know how you guys see life and why you buy those stupid cars but damn... these billionaires that produce the shit we see on the streets every day, have you on their finger tips... they fooled you all

Jeeze, this video editing and the camera angels are on point.

Good review... Really good .

Very good review, but i think some of the technology could have been highlighted a bit more. I think that you would have enjoyed the car even more if it had been higher spec. This particular example didn't have the double screen, cooled seats and a few others. The basic car is good but i think to really get the best out of it, high specification is a must. Mercedes and other premium manufacturers are always quite stingy with standard equipment. In terms of engines, the choice seems very poor on both sides of the Atlantic. Here in Britain, you can't even get a petrol engine at launch! The overwhelming majority of buyers in Europe will end up with the e220d (2.0l 4 cylinder diesel engine) because it will be dirt cheap to run. Personally I'd go for the 3.0 V6 diesel for the extra refinement and power. The 220d starts at just under £36k here which is almost £10k more than the W211 was a decade ago. In order to get a W213 exactly how you wanted it ( both screens, sunroof, air suspension, decent engine, big wheels etc) you'll spend a fortune.

why do you need a billion horsepower in a luxury car?

Great review. Thank you.

Excellent review - That you from London !

the old one just looks so much better

Is the E-Class better then the 5 Series?

this was the first video of yours that i saw, immediately imressed... Good coverage, no annoying fillers, to the point & precise...

Good video keep up the good work

when's the e63 out?

well it looks better than the s class for sure imo

You got me at that analog clock there!! I'm on my knees!

Did you get a new camera or a step up your game? Lol great video Parker you really make me want one!

Large, powerful engines in luxury sedans don't interest me at all. I'd buy one for extreme comfort, not to race the thing

ughh, sux that so many c-class and e-class cars are equipped with the star in the grille. the traditional stand-up star on the bonnet looks better....

When you drove in the S class, there was basically no road noise. It seems like the E class had a little bit of road noise, so it seems the E class is a ltitle bit louder. What do you think?

Great review

Americans need to get off of the big engine bandwagon. In Europe you can get a fully loaded 7 series with a 3.0 6 cylinder diesel.

7:10 still waiting for puberty to kick in, hang in there buddy it'll come sooner or later

I'm very impressed with quality of this video in regards to your previous ones. keep this up. this definitely rivals cnet roadshow and beats tfl car. at this rate, you'll give kbb and ignition a good run for their money 😎

I am in the market for a full size luxury car. I have a 2012 BMW 750i individual but its getting close to 100k miles and I want something a little lighter. I am look at the e300 or a Cadillac CT6 as my 2 major options for replacement. Which would you recommend out of the 2?

Interior is really great, BMW, Audi, Lexus look much worse

not a big fan of the body styling, i'd have to see the AMG version :)

Finally, back to the reviews!😄😆👍👍👍👍

I'm wondering where MB is going with their model range from the design point of view and I wondered the same thing as this video title suggest - especially with the S63 Coupe, when you can't really tell it apart from the C variant - when you're spending that difference, you would want the car to look substantially different too? As a long time MB owner, including several S Class and Coupes, I love these cars but would like to see some more differentiation between the (vastly expanding and confusing) current model range.... (by the way, since when is 240hp of no use!!?? lol ) Cheers!

Make a Video About the A-Class.

Voice crack 7:10

I'm looking into getting a sedan would you get the c300 or the E300? I would like to Be around 55K-60k thanks

You have a superb presentation...

Sorry brand is good for few people and neighbors but 4 me with a limited budget of $60G go to Hyundai and take a 5.0 genesis 420 Hp with 10 years of guarantees and free service .4 me a $60g car need to be balance in tech and power. I don t want $60 g brand and go to 60 mph in 7sec.I know MBenz is MBenz but $60g is $60g.

E63 is little too expensive for most customers, but I think E43 is perfectly choice for E series.

Those seats looks comfortable as fuck

Were you in comfort mode when you tested the acceleration

I would rather buy a Mercedes Benz C coupe.

Does anyone think this is a women's car ?

Can you tell me exactly the name of the model that you saying in 4:49 Performance package 3 with one enormous glass?

+vehiclevergins ive been waiting for the 2017 S550 to come out hoping it would have the newer technology like the E class has. do you know if the S550 will be having the newer technology for 2017??

I keep my awesome W116, those where real Mercedes, now there are ugly plastic racer

The 2016 Mercedes S63 should never be compared to an e class.

Hoping to see some audi car reviews soon! keep up the luxurious vids.

6:20 you are wrong Parker the a45 amg had one of the best car sounds ever ;)

My biggest issue is not the engine, though! It is the cars face! It looks good, but it looks something made for women; for a female boss kind of personality or a fashion designer. Even in black with a manly dark-wooden interior, the girliness just doesn't go away from this car.

lol 4 cylinder? haha for $60,000??????????????? are they mad?

Love this car! Gorgeous! The retro gauges are incredible. Needs a wicked engine and will be perfect! Only non American car I would own is the MB!

Great review! Do you plan on doing the new Jaguar XF?

imo it's ugly... ;/

Now they officially have no style. C, E, and S class look totally the same

The interior is a masterpiece of art. Stunning

This kid's voice is so irritating!

good review

One of the best reviewers.

Talking about the phone placement, my Holden does it perfectly. Has an amazing spot to put my phone

Able to cover the GLA 45 AMG ? Looking to buy one and there arent many in depth vids on it

Great vid

This looks like the perfect car to get groceries in on a Sunday afternoon, and honestly for the price, I'm kinda ok with that

Im looking forward to the E63, the spy videos look and sound great!

While I think it is up to the individual, but one can certainly make a 4 banger sound quite well. While Mercedes is a luxury vehicle, they could open up the exhaust and make a very beautiful note for this. Just an opinion, akroprovich will already be designing exhaust soon.

I didnt know the new e-class is available without the interactive Display on your speedometer. This is definetely a cool Feature too. You should try it.

You should test out the noise car makes when it crashes.

sat in one the other day. headlining and sunvisors were cheaper than in a ford fiesta xD but everything else was very good.

9-speed-transmissions are of course important but only for countries like Germany where you can Drive 250kph
