little confusing with the suspension: So the information on location was Dynamic Ride Control, but price lists suggests that you have the AMG suspension which is based on the Air Body Control (air susp.). Not sure if the cars on location were equipped differently or if the info was wrong. One thing is for sure though, that no matter which suspension you pick with the e-class, they are all extremely good.

I just picked up my E43 last week. I got the wood trim (great decision). The car is AMAZING. I just have the regular Burmester and it sounds fantastic. Is it an E63? No. Does it sound like an E63? No. To get that sound you just have to pay 30k more (which I'll probably do in 3 years). I'm gonna pick up an AMG GT next year, so that'll be my full AMG. I really just wanted an E class with a proper engine, which this is. The interior is gorgeous, and the massage seats actually work really well. Everyone I know is jealous and people stare and stare often. I couldn't be happier with this car.

Hi Thomas...I placed my order in September 2016 and I took delivery of my E43 yesterday! I appreciate the in depth reviews of the E Class which truly helped me with which options to choose. Premium 3, Premium sound, Pano roof, Insulation package, 20" wheels with Pirelli rubber just to name a few. You were right about the options adding up fast! The MSRP was 89k USD but I don't mind as it's the best E Class I have ever owned (2007, 2009, 2012, 2014). Thank you and keep up the awesome work!!!

This E43 not only beats (fr)Audi and BMW. It beats Jaguars all the way! The interior materials and total quality are so much better and classier! Better than an XJ, faster than an XF and even the F-type 400. Smoother driving with lesser rattles and with a 10 times higher reliability than a Jag. After 10 years of "trying" to believe in a Jaguar Leaper, I must admit: "The Best or Nothing" is not only commercial statement...Love this car and very proud to have one!

@autogefuehl8 жыл бұрын
Thank you for taking interest in this very important topic! First to the practical reasons: 1. animal skin seats get hot in summer and you stick to the seat 2. they are cold in winter 3. on cloth or microfibre, you basically don’t need seat heating nor cooling 4. animal skin seats wear out very fast and look like granny’s old sofa Now to the environmental reasons: 1. There are productions where the cow is killed for the skin first, sometimes even alive, the skin is the most profitable part of the body. 2. Even if a cow gets killed for meat first, you give additional money to an industry that relies on murder, pollutes the environment and harms people with chemicals 3. Does it really matter for which cause a mammal, that is 99 % genetically identical with us, gets killed? 4. To the often said argument, animal skin would just be a byproduct, please google/youtube "leather is not a byproduct" you will find plenty of information. A good overview on all those issues can also be found here: adaptt.org/ Special videos: 1. A special video from Autogefühl considering the use of leather can be found here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpecYn6dl7uVgLM 2. And another one right here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn6xmJaCepV_erc 3.

Assuming both have the same suspension modes and driving type set to comfort of course. Im after a sporty but comfortable care.

I'm currently driving CLA45 AMG and looking forward to purchase this beautiful beast. Did Mercedes release the pricing of E43 yet ? If so could anyone please tell me how much is it ? Thanks !

Thank you Thomas for your answer. I have already seen (and enjoyed) all these videos. Do you think the Volkswagen up! can keep up with the Peugeot 208 concerning suspension and sound isolation? With 1.86 meters where did you have the more suitable and comfortable sitting position? Thanks in advance for your answer.

VW up is mini car segment, 208 is small car segment, that would rather be vs VW Polo. Still I have the better seating the position in the VW up than in the Polo surprisingly

Thomas: Great review, and I agree with you on the interior.But I have a question please answer me..in comfort, sport and sport plus is the car shifting itself or must be shifted manually?? it can be a fool question but really I don't know>>>

thanks! Shifts automatically. There is another pure M mode where it sticks in the gears.

I don't understand why German car manufactures reserve seat ventilation for upper trim levels while Kia can offer it on a cars 1/3 the price?!

Because Mercedes, BMW, and Audi aren't value brands.

6:36 Thomas, was ist genau der Grund warum du normales Leder in den Sitzbezügen nicht empfehlen kannst? Sehr gutes Video wie immer! :)

Vielen Dank! Schau mal, ich habe hier mal eine Liste in Englisch zusammengestellt mit den Gründen: First to the practical reasons: 1. animal skin seats get hot in summer and you stick to the seat 2. they are cold in winter 3. on cloth or microfibre, you basically don’t need seat heating nor cooling 4. animal skin seats wear out very fast and look like granny’s old sofa Now to the environmental reasons: 1. There are productions where the cow is killed for the skin first, sometimes even alive, the skin is the most profitable part of the body. 2. Even if a cow gets killed for meat first, you give additional money to an industry that relies on murder, pollutes the environment and harms people with chemicals 3. Does it really matter for which cause a mammal, that is 99 % genetically identical with us, gets killed? 4. To the often said argument, animal skin would just be a byproduct, please google/youtube "leather is not a byproduct" you will find plenty of information. A good overview on all those issues can also be found here: adaptt.org/ Special videos: 1. A special video from Autogefühl considering the use of leather can be found here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpecYn6dl7uVgLM 2. And another one right here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn6xmJaCepV_erc 3. Furthermore, you’ll find footage of leather production here, kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJrTiqmredh8bNU timecode starting 27:46 Help to raise awareness on this subject. Thanks!

The fact that an AMG model has fake exhaust pipes is quite laughable...

Thomas, Could you help me decide. Should I get the E43 now or wait for the M550i xdrive. They will be priced similarly but the BMW has a v8 with 60hp more and half a sec quicker. How do they compare with available technology. Is the merc worth it in comparison. What would you do?
@autogefuehl8 жыл бұрын
+frqnj hm, seen our 5series review? Both 550i and e43 offer alcantara seats, thats great. Both have superb handling. Its really personal taste

How does the comfort mode of the e43 compare to the normal e class? Which suspension is more comfortable?
