2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E320 Trim Overview

The 2004 Mercedes-Benz E320 four-door sedan was powered by a 3.2-liter V6 engine that produced 221 horsepower. It was linked to a five-speed automatic transmission equipped with the Touch Shift feature, which enabled the driver to upshift and downshift by nudging the shift lever left or right. This gave the driver the option to adjust the car's performance based on driving conditions.

The 2004 sedan was equipped with anti-lock brakes, traction control, and an Electronic Stability Programming (ESP) anti-skid system.

Other standard features included leather seats with power adjustment in the front, a multi-zone automatic climate control system, dual front and side airbags, power windows, power exterior mirrors, cruise control, and an AM/FM audio system with a cassette player and a CD player. The automaker's TeleAid emergency communication and assistance program was also part of the package.

Options for the E320 sedan included Dynamic Drive seats that adjusted automatically to support the driver under heavy cornering, a twin sunroof with power sunshades, and a smart cruise control system that automatically adjusted the vehicle's speed to maintain a set distance from the car it followed.

While some thought the E320 sedan was an expensive car for its class, they noted that its handling, performance, styling, and luxury features made the car worth the price. Some even noted that the E320 was a fuel-efficient vehicle when compared to its competitors. However, some drivers reported various mechanical problems with the car.
