Mercedes-Benz E-Class Trim Comparison: 4MATIC® AWD

One of the first differences Marion and Sumter drivers will notice is the addition of the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® AWD system in the sedan’s name. The only thing that differentiates the two E 350 models is that the lower trim level isn’t equipped with the 4MATIC® system. The 4MATIC® AWD system engages all four wheels for more traction on slippery roads and better cornering. The E 350 isn’t equipped with 4MATIC®, but the E-450 has 4MATIC® Permanent All-Wheel Drive. That means the system is continuously sending power to all four wheels for a smoother ride. While this system is excellent on any surface, it’s a necessity for adventurous drivers. 

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Trim Comparison: Engine Specs

The other major difference in this Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim comparison is under the hood. While the E 350 offers a considerable amount of engine power, the E-450 4MATIC® bests it with a bigger engine and higher capabilities. See the Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim comparison engine specs below. 

Mercedes-Benz E 350 Engine Specs:

• 2.0L inline-4 turbo engine
• 255 hp
• 9-Tronic 9-speed automatic transmission
• 0-60 MPH in 6.1 seconds

• 3.0L inline-6 turbo engine with mild hybrid drive

The extra engine power and the inclusion of the 4MATIC® system account for the higher price tag on the Mercedes-Benz E-450 4MATIC®.
