How much does the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

Prices have softened 8.40% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,392 listings available, which suggests you have a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class a good car?

Yes — the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns a 4.76/5 user rating and an 8.00/10 expert rating. The model scores 10/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owners consistently praise the smooth ride, luxurious interior, powerful performance, advanced features, and elegant styling. That lines up with the overview’s focus on a midsize luxury car that delivers refinement and prestige, so you should expect a polished ownership experience if those qualities matter most to you.

With 34.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still room to shop selectively.

Is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class reliable?

Owners rate it 4.76/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a car that feels dependable in daily use, with repeated praise for the smooth ride, luxurious interior, and powerful performance. The expert drive notes also emphasize how calm, quiet, and composed the E-Class feels on the road, which supports the impression that it is built for trouble-free long-distance comfort.

If you are buying used, the main ownership risk is not basic drivability but premium-car upkeep, especially once warranty coverage ends.

What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

At 60.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a higher-mileage example or one with visible cosmetic wear. Focus on signs of prior bodywork, interior wear, and any evidence that premium features or driver-assistance systems are not working as intended.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The cabin is loaded with upscale touches such as inlaid wood, bright ambient lighting in 64 colors, and high-res screens, while the coupe adds pillarless styling and powered rear half windows. The Luxury Line is limited to the E300/E400 sedan and E400 wagon, and it swaps in a classic thin-lined grille and standing hood ornament.
• Powertrain: The E300 uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 241 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque, while the E400 uses a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with 329 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. The V6 is the stronger choice, and the four-cylinder is described as underpowered in this heavier car.
• Safety package: Mercedes includes Car-to-X Communication, Pre-Safe Sound, automatic braking that can detect crossing traffic and people, and adaptive cruise control that can respond to changing speed limits. Many of these features are optional, and several are tied to the expensive Premium 3 package.
• Infotainment: The E-Class offers Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a Wi-Fi hotspot, a built-in web browser, a head-up display, and a configurable instrument panel. The tech suite is extensive, but some of the most advanced features require the Premium 3 package.
• Fuel efficiency: The E300 is EPA-rated at 22 mpg city and 30 highway, while the E300 4Matic is rated at 21/29. The E400 coupe is rated at 20/26, and the E400 4Matic wagon is rated at 19/25.

Which 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim should I buy?

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is offered in 4 trim levels: E300 sedan, E300 4Matic sedan, E400 coupe, E400 4Matic wagon.

Here's the short version:

• E300 sedan: This is the entry point and the most affordable way into the E-Class, but the four-cylinder is the least convincing powertrain in the lineup. It makes sense if you want the lowest starting price and are comfortable giving up some performance.
• E300 4Matic sedan: This adds all-wheel drive and is one of the most popular trims, making it a smart pick if you want broader all-weather confidence without moving up to the pricier V6 models. It is the best-value choice for many shoppers.
• E400 coupe: This is the standout if you want the stronger 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 and the coupe body style. It delivers the best balance of performance and style in the lineup.
• E400 4Matic wagon: This is the most practical body style in the group and still gets the stronger V6. It suits you best if you want utility without giving up the E-Class luxury experience.

Many of the safety and semi-autonomous features are locked into the expensive Premium 3 package, so check equipment carefully before you buy.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, with enough inventory and pricing softness to reward careful shopping.

• Deal availability: 34.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,392 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.40% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 60.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $23,299, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class's resale value?

The current average of $23,479 sits slightly below last year's $25,631.

That decline suggests the market has already absorbed some of the model’s depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price. If you purchase near the current average or below, you may have less downside left than a buyer who paid closer to new-car pricing.

The E-Class still carries strong prestige and broad appeal, which can help support demand when you eventually resell. But premium ownership costs and age-related wear can still affect what buyers are willing to pay, so condition will matter a lot.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.76/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class safe?

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and for rollover vulnerability, and it is rated Top Safety Pick+ by IIHS.

It earns a 10/10 safety score from our experts.

Mercedes includes Car-to-X Communication, which shares road-safety alerts with other E-Class drivers, along with Pre-Safe Sound, automatic braking that can detect crossing traffic and people, and systems that can help with steering and braking in an emergency. The car can also recognize changing speed limits when adaptive cruise control is active.

A key caveat is that many of these features are optional, and several are bundled into the expensive Premium 3 package, so you should verify exactly what is installed on any used example you consider.

Should I buy a 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2018 if:

• 34.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 60.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.40% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.76/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The expert review says you get a lot of what you pay for, with standout luxury, technology, and safety.

The bottom line: The 2018 E-Class makes the most sense if you want a deeply luxurious used sedan, coupe, or wagon and you are willing to pay attention to condition and equipment. If you are price-sensitive, the softer market and decent inventory make this a good year to shop carefully and negotiate hard, but you should still prioritize a clean history and the right feature set over chasing the cheapest example.
