How much does the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

Prices have softened 3.65% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

With 1,064 listings available, you have a solid amount of inventory to compare across price and condition.

If you find a listing below $15,003.98, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class a good car?

Yes — the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns a 4.64/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Owners repeatedly praise its classic styling, reliability, and comfortable drive, and many also highlight the performance of the 6-cylinder engine and the fun experience behind the wheel. That lines up well with its role as a used luxury sedan that gives you a high-end cabin, broad appeal, and a lot of standard equipment if you want comfort, prestige, and modern features without buying new. With 31.3% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a meaningful chance to find one that fits your budget.

Is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class reliable?

Owners rate it 4.64/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback also points to reliability, dependability, and a car that many people feel comfortable counting on over time. That said, a few owners mention issues such as juddering brakes and glitchy infotainment systems, so used buyers should still pay close attention to maintenance history and how the car has aged in real-world use. For long-term ownership, the main risk is buying a neglected example rather than one that has been properly cared for.

What should I look for when buying a used 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

At 55% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from cars with prior damage or repeated claims. After that, prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially for brake feel, infotainment behavior, and overall condition inside and out. Because this is a luxury sedan, you’ll want to focus on how well the car has been maintained, not just how it looks in photos.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile opportunities.

• Deal availability: 31.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,064 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.65% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 55.0% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $15,003.98, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class's resale value?

The current average of $15,431 sits slightly below last year's $16,016.

That softer pricing suggests the model has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. If you choose a well-kept example, you may have a better chance of limiting further value loss than you would with a car that is already overpriced or poorly documented. Strong condition and a clean history matter more here because buyers in this segment tend to be selective.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.64/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2016 if:

• 31.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 55% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 3.65% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.64/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line: The 2016 is a strong choice if you want a luxury sedan with broad appeal, a high-end cabin, and solid owner satisfaction, especially if you can find one with clean history and good maintenance records. If you’re more price-sensitive, it also makes sense to compare nearby years and focus on whichever one gives you the best combination of condition, history, and asking price.
