7.8

The new E350 mild-hybrid is a comfortable and luxurious sedan if hamstrung by a high asking price and standard equipment omissions.

CarExpert's Take
James Wong
Production Editor
James Wong drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Elegant design inside and out
- Plush cabin fit-out and eye-catching tech
- Cushy air-sprung ride and quiet ambience
Misses
- $130k before on-roads and options is steep compared to rivals
- Expensive options, some of which should be standard
- Smaller wheels would make the ride even better
