When we had our long-term W211 E320 long-termer back in 2003, we complained lots about its interior’s poor fitments and rattles. With the new W212 E350, Mercedes has addressed this problem by giving its cabin far superior use of dash materials and fit-and-finish. Our experience has been positive, so far. Everything else feels tight and solid. Although the level of soft-touch materials aren’t as classy as class-leading Audi A6, its a huge improvement over the lackluster plastic craps used previously in W211 and W210 E-Class.
As for the rest of the cabin, its very comfortable with those firm and supportive leather seats. Those who have ridden in an E-Class always praise of its excellent NVH levels and superb seats. Although those standard seats aren’t designed for black top twisties, its exceptional for E-Class’s awesome cruising abilities. In fact, E-Class already proven to ride so comfortably. It has made us wonder why would anyone bother to get an S-Class.
On our next update, we will talked about its performance.
