how to design an interior of a modern car. step 1: put a tablet here, here and here. job complete.

[@evoemperor3776]

Yeah literally every cars now🤣 i missed the wood trims or aluminium. They always put gloss black trim and screens now🤣

[@smamq]

Seriously, not a single knob, neither for volume, nor for temperature. The entire climate system is buried in the screen, which is the norm, but the fact that it's still touch based, no sliding or nob is such a huge turn off.

[@CarConfections]

Thank you, Terry!

[@seansiew5629]

Well this E class looks to be a successful one, since the G30 beat the w213 in sales, in the executive category of sedans it’s usually a 50-50 chance, if the 5 series lead one generation and then the next gen 5 would be a flop, and suddenly the E class prevail as the 5 series flops

It’s Feb, and dealers still can’t get an allocation for or spec out a 450 version. Maybe they should release it as an early 2025 model, since everyone else had their 24’s out last fall.

[@johncristaldi5812]

You guys do a great job but think more about driving these vehicles daily - adjust the Radio stations / show how easy to change the stations while driving, show the temperature controls and how to adjust it while driving. Adjust your seat while driving, adjustment rear view camera / mirror while driving, discuss the spare tire & location and how easy is it to change a tire- Most people don't care about the 360-view camera, we just want to see when we back up!!! Talk about the service schedule - recommended service intervals - oil changes every x mile's, is there a charge or free. Just my 2 cents guys-Keep up the good work gentleman.

Even the S class is not an S class anymore. Look at the W221 or the W140. That were true S classes. Not this techy lighting fancy plastic crap we have today with fake exhausts, fake sound, the absence of wood and tiny turbo engines that just won’t last hundreds of thousands of miles. It is fancy but it’ll never have true class or is luxurious.

[@Architek79]

Great review guys!

[@CarConfections]

Thank you!

[@jamesweil3619]

So MB-Tex is actually not a fake/synthetic leather, or leatherette! Full leather seats to Mercedes standards require a full hide to be stretched to form the seat. MB-Tex is just leather particles put together to form a material that is made from real leather, but doesn't have the supple feel or scent of a full, stretched hide - but it's not fake or man-made! Mercedes leather has a softer feel and a more luxurious texture, but MB-Tex is far more durable, so it depends what you're looking for!

[@geothermal7999]

The 2024 GLC300 4MATIC SUV cabin is less in dB. Much more quiet. If I remember correctly your rating on the ‘24 GLC is 52.1, which is also better than the BMW X3.

[@omniultima4747]

Perfect time to buy a used S450 or even Porsche Cayenne at this price range.

[@josephpayton9151]

The E-class in my opinion is one of the more unique models in the lineup. It has the look and luxury of the S class and some of the sportiness of maybe a C- class. Its definitely the right size. The Mercedes benz emblem in the shape of the taillights has to be rhe most controversial aspect i’ve seen from the brand. Its different. The screens are well integrated but it does look overwhelming and it’s a trap for fingerprints. I question if the whole dash is glass or plastic?

[@vladimirdorta6692]

It has been many months since I saw the preview for this car, which at the time I thought it looked so good and couldn't wait for it to be available. I've since been looking at other cars such as BMWs and now the interior on this is looking so weird that I've lost interest

[@HenryRoss-wu4lo]

Sedans!?

[@drkvenger]

Bleh exterior. Not a fan of the glare on digital cluster. Stupid trend removing the hood covers from the instrument cluster. Sunlight glare is worsened with the increasing use of screens everywhere, not to mention the safety risk and distraction it creates. All it takes is a second of glare washing out vital readouts.

[@SDav21]

Hopefully they've improved the build and material quality in here compared to their recent models like the C Class and GLE both which have awful build and material quality. Mercedes ended up transferring all their R&D budget towards electric vehicles only for that to blow up badly because their EVs aren't selling well nor are they very good as their build quality is just as poor as their new ICE vehicles. Everyone needs to stop this electric nonsense. Hybrid and ICE needs to remain and they need to fix their quality now. They should've taken BMWs strategy and build electric versions on normal platforms and just offer electric as one option. Now they've shifted all their money to something they're not doing so well in only for their ICE cars to also now suffer. So to make up for declining sales they increase prices and you have a very average car when it's priced so high. This brand isn't worth it anymore.
