How much does the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

Prices have softened 7.55% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,006 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

If you find a listing below $29,942.95, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class a good car?

Yes — it earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Safety at 10/10.

You’re looking at a luxury car that offers multiple body styles, a stylish design, and impressive technology, so it has broad appeal if you want something that feels special. The trade-offs are the underwhelming base engine and technology that can be difficult to use, which keep it from being a clean sweep.

The market also shows 28.2% of listings as good or great deals, so you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class reliable?

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

The 2020 E-Class is described as a rock-solid, impeccably built car, and the expert review also emphasizes its strong comfort and premium execution. Its base engine is improved over prior years, and the cabin materials and overall presentation reinforce the sense that you’re buying something substantial.

The main long-term ownership risk for used buyers is that this is a complex luxury car, so condition and maintenance history matter more than they would on a simpler sedan.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

At 67.7% 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’re considering a higher-spec car with more equipment. Focus on overall condition, because this model’s appeal depends heavily on how well the luxury features, electronics, and cabin materials have held up. If a listing has been heavily optioned, make sure every feature works as intended.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base sedan is described as feeling several cuts above other cars in its segment, but it uses leatherette and standard seats, so you’ll want to compare it carefully against better-equipped versions if you care about cabin richness.
• Powertrain: The new turbocharged 4-cylinder is improved and uses a 9-speed automatic, but it is still described as underwhelming; the twin-turbo V6 is the stronger choice if you want more effortless performance.
• Safety package: The Driver Assistance Package adds the semi-automated driving features, including steering assistance, obstacle avoidance help, lane changes with the turn signal, curve slowing, and broader sensing around the car. Many other driver-assist features are optional.
• Infotainment: Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto are standard, and the dash can be reconfigured in multiple designs. The system is also described as difficult to use, so test it yourself before you buy.
• Fuel efficiency: Fuel economy is EPA-estimated between 19 to 23 mpg city and 26 to 32 highway, depending on powertrain and body style.

Which 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim should I buy?

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is offered in 4 trim levels: E350 sedan, E450 coupe, E450 4Matic wagon, E450 cabriolet.

Here's the short version:

• E350 sedan: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core E-Class experience at the lowest starting price. It’s the best-value choice if you want the style, comfort, and tech without stretching into the pricier body styles.
• E450 coupe: Choose this if you want the more upscale two-door look and are willing to pay more for it. It suits you best if style matters as much as everyday practicality.
• E450 4Matic wagon: This is the most practical body style in the lineup, and it’s the one to consider if you want versatility along with the E-Class luxury feel.
• E450 cabriolet: Pick this if open-air driving is your priority. It’s the most indulgent version and makes the strongest case if you want the E-Class at its most special.

The safety package note is simple: the Driver Assistance Package contains the full semi-automated feature set, while many other driver-assist features remain optional.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

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

• Deal availability: 28.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,006 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.55% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 67.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $29,942.95, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class's resale value?

The current average of $30,731 sits slightly below last year's $33,241.

That softer pricing suggests the model has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right price. For you, that means the biggest resale advantage comes from choosing a clean, well-kept example rather than overpaying for one with a weak history or heavy wear. A strong purchase price today gives you a better chance of limiting your loss later.

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

Is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class safe?

The E-Class sedan and wagon scored a five-star overall rating and five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and for rollover vulnerability from NHTSA. The sedan is rated a Top Safety Pick+ by IIHS with the highest ratings in six crash tests, headlights, and collision-avoidance systems.

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

The Driver Assistance Package adds the semi-automated driving system, including steering assistance, obstacle avoidance help, lane changes with the turn signal, curve slowing, and sensing around the car from multiple directions. Forward emergency braking, a driver attention monitor, and blind-spot monitoring are standard, while many other driver-assist features are optional.

Should I buy a 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2020 if:

• 28.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 67.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.55% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2020 adds a new base engine while keeping the E-Class’s stellar design, technology, and effortless demeanor.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $36,681, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $30,731 average.
• It gets a mid-cycle update for the infotainment system, engines, and exterior styling.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2020 is the smarter buy because pricing has softened and inventory is healthy. If you’re willing to pay more for the updated model, the 2021 makes sense for buyers who want the newer infotainment and styling changes. For most price-sensitive shoppers, the 2020 is the more compelling path.
