Facts about the new E-Class: exciting intelligence

Extensive model facelift

Stuttgart/Las Vegas. With over 14 million units delivered since 1946, the E-Class is the bestselling model
series in the history of Mercedes-Benz. Many regard it as the "heart of the brand." In 2016 the E-Class took
a major step into the future: the tenth generation sets styling highlights with its pure yet emotional design and
exclusive, high-quality interior. It also impressed with its wealth of innovations, including the driver assistance
systems. This emotional and smart combination has proven extremely successful: to date more than one million
customers around the world have decided in favor of the current-generation E-Class Sedan or
E-Class Wagon. The E-Class intelligence is becoming even more exciting and dynamic: in summer 2020 the
sedan and wagon will be in the showrooms of our European sales partners as the first representatives of the
extensively facelifted model series. The long wheelbase sedan (China), coupe and cabriolet will soon follow.
Key facts:
 Next level of Intelligent Drive
o Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC with route-based speed adjustment: with the help of information
from LiveTraffic, the E-Class can recognize and respond to traffic jams and slow-moving traffic even
before the driver becomes aware of them. When a traffic jam is detected (and if the driver does not
choose a different response), DISTRONIC reduces the speed to around 62 mph as a precaution.
o Active Traffic Jam Assist: in the event of a highway traffic jam where there are lane markings, this can
substantially assist the driver with lane-keeping and maintaining a safe distance at speeds up to
around 37 mph.
o Active Steering Assist: can assist the driver in forming an emergency lane on multi-lane roads.
o Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function: if there is a danger of a collision with oncoming traffic
when making a turn across a highway, the E-Class can brake at the speeds typical of such maneuvers.
o Active Blind Spot Assist with exit warning: this function can lower the risk of a collision with other road
users, for example passing cyclists. Active Blind Spot Assist also monitors the blind spot when at a
standstill, and can warn the driver of approaching vehicles, motorcycles or bicycles when opening the
door.
o Parking Package with 360° camera: Side View gives the Parking package a new function that keeps an
eye on the entire side of the vehicle. The extended side view makes it easier to maneuver alongside
nearby, parallel obstacles such as curbs and garage walls.
