This car is so strikingly beautiful, when I came across it on a Westside walk I had to take a photo or two. What a surprise to see that same car here in this video! =)

That front camera on the grill not being in the centre is making my OCD go into overdrive

Stop calling things like this “OCD”, highly cringy. OCD is a serious mental illness that ruins lives.

[@jackyharuhiko]

And the narrow CarPlay screen. It used to be full wide screen on COMAND.

[@jackyharuhiko]

22:18 One point of regression on MBUX is the shrunk down Apple CarPlay screen. In the previous E class, the CarPlay interface fills up the whole 12.3 inch screen instead of being shrunk down to the middle in MBUX. Given that Apple CarPlay is such an important function that I use every time, I think this point alone maybe the deal breaker for some people.

[@nate7906]

I noticed that too! That was hard believe. One of the best parts of the car was that 12.3 inch display filled with CarPlay! Having it full screen looks soooo much better. The 2021 (facelift) is quieter, no IWC clock in the dash, missing under dash 12v outlet, can’t have the performance seats in the US, a lot of people don’t like the steering wheel, a lot of 2021 are missing other options and features do to supply chain shortages too and more.

Amazing reviews, thank you very much! Just a little tip from a German, the driving settings on the left wheel button are customizable! You can not only activate or deactivate the two settings that are displayed, but you can change both to whatever engine setting you prefer on your steering wheel. Simply click the display and toggle through the options

Absolutely - thank you for the note. I noticed that after I had made this review. Oops!

Yes! What's up with the brands (Mercedes & BMW) with these oversized ugly a$$ grills? This one isn't nearly as bad as what BMW did to the M3 & M4. I hope for their sake, they get rid of them. I haven't spoken to a single person who likes them.

I don't know why, but most Mercedes models in the U.S. that have a white strip in the tail lights are not used as amber turn signals. But in other countries, it is used as the amber turn signal.

[@bastula]

They are finally going back to amber in that white strip. Starting with this new E class refresh and the GLA redesign. Hope it carries through to the rest of their models in the future!

[@redache467]

I think car regulations, I always wondered why american cars always have that amber light, til I found out that their regulations say so, thats why german cars from america have that amber unlike european cars

Great review. Two questions to follow up: 1) Which is the more comfortable ride, 2021 M5 Comp or the E63s? 2) Which of the two would you recommend overall?

[@MilesPerHr]

I haven’t driven the 2021 M5, just the 2020 but I would lean slightly towards the M5. Ride quality is similar to the E63, but I prefer the M5’s steering feel

[@alenibricic9899]

I watch the video new M5 is stiffer than new E63s... better option is e-class, because now had perfect middle bettwen comfort and sport+ and you feel it the diffirient... and when you drive or crousing 200 km/h you have a feel like you dont go anywhere (stand in the same place). I watch a lot videos about new M5 and new E63s.

Do you know how to turn on the drift mode on this thing?

[@LIG242]

How come this one doesn't have the sports/performance seats? It's not showing on MBUSA either but i have seen some reviews where they do have it though so bit confused. Would really appreciate it if you can answer this.

[@balmain2002]

MBUSA got rid of the Sport Seats for the E53 AMG in the US, it was available before this facelift. Maybe they have gotten rid of them for the E63 as well, since even this "Edition 1" model does not have it. The sport seats are not showing on the E63 2021 Config site on MBUSA, which opened up today...so there you go They also got rid of the "Burmester High-End" system for the 2021 E450, you can only get it now in the AMG models for 2021

[@lequinnmorris909]

I was thinking the same thing

[@LIG242]

@Sayem AK but they're not showing on MBUSA when building the car. They look really nice and i actually heard they can be pretty comfortable too..depends on the person i guess.

[@nate7906]

They don’t sell the performance seats on 2021 E 63 S in the USA. 2020 was the last year of the performance seats for the E 63 S in the US. They still sell them in Europe in the 2021. Mercedes said if they have enough interest they will bring them back to the US.

[@koustavmondal4033]

Nice car

[@aseems]

Good Video. How do you activate the Rear Only Drift mode on this car?

[@MilesPerHr]

Rear only drive mode is activated by going to race mode, holding traction control until it’s off, putting the transmission in manual, pulling both paddles at the same time, then confirming by pulling the right paddle.

This car doesn’t compete with the RS7 or Panamera. It competes with the RS6. You car journalists kill me when you can’t get segments right.
