Our Silver, 20″ staggered INOVIT Vector could not compliment this Benz any better. Shot on location in El Monte, CA. These rims improve on the OEM style in every conceivable way, just a great match-up for this car. The E Class Benz is a car that appeals to so many, it is comfortable but can be sporty, fast but also refined, practical but alluring by way of looks and functionality, much the same as our Vector wheel. The key elements are so on-point for both the wheel and the car designs that there would be no arguments over the choice of this offering. The owner, Matt, wanted to retain as much of an OEM look from his aftermarket setup and as always, we delivered with this subtle styling upgrade. There really is a saying that you can re-invent the wheel, Inovit is doing that every day of the week, every week of the year and have done so for 17 years and we still continue to set the bar.

Mercedes-Benz’s new nine-speed automatic transmission, used with every engine, pairs with either rear- or all-wheel drive in the E300. In Comfort mode, the gearbox often reacts to full-throttle kickdowns with two distinct and slightly sluggish steps, but Sport and Sport+ modes quickly erase that complaint. There, the gearbox holds a low gear and then snaps off perfectly timed, seamless downshifts as you brake ahead of a turn—these gearchanges would be impressive in an AMG model.

This E-class is a car so complex and so connected that its internal-combustion engine seems like an afterthought. Or maybe it just needs a proper marketing name: “Active Propulsion Assist”? When it goes on sale in June, the E-class will come with only a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. That engine makes the same 241 horsepower in the E300 as it does in the C300, but it’s burdened with an extra 400 pounds in Mercedes’ mid-sizer. While it never feels overtaxed, its presence in this car is definitely due to CO2 and fuel-economy dictates, and the entry E-class will be slower than the outgoing base model, which uses a 302-hp V-6. As consolation, the E300 should be slightly cheaper and more efficient than the car it replaces.
