How much does the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

Prices have softened 10.55% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 856 listings available, which suggests you should have a workable selection to compare.

Is the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns a 4.7/5 user rating and an 8.3/10 expert rating. The model scores 10/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its blend of luxury, performance, and beautiful design, along with its comfortable interior and advanced features. The E-Class also stands out for its powerful engine choices and polished everyday feel, while some shoppers note that it can feel overpriced and that certain features are not included.

From a use-case standpoint, it works well if you want a versatile luxury sedan that can be tailored toward comfort, performance, or efficiency. The market also shows 34.6% good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a car that many people feel good about living with over time, especially because it blends luxury with a comfortable interior and advanced features. The expert evaluation also describes it as a practical and versatile car, which supports the idea that it can be a dependable daily driver when properly maintained.

Mercedes also positions the E-Class as a sophisticated, well-engineered model with a strong emphasis on refinement and usability. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that a complex luxury car can become expensive if prior maintenance was skipped or if options and systems need repair.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

At 73.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. A pre-purchase inspection matters here because the E-Class can be loaded with technology and comfort features that are expensive to sort out later. Focus on condition, maintenance records, and whether the equipment on the car matches what you expect from the trim and options.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The cabin is richly appointed even in lower trims, but the more upscale versions add more decadent materials, richer finishes, and a more elaborate presentation. The base setup can feel less special than the higher-spec versions, so you should compare interior materials and equipment carefully.
• Powertrain: The lineup includes four engines, ranging from a base turbo four-cylinder to electrified inline-six and AMG V8 powertrains. The four-cylinder is described as underwhelming, while the six-cylinder and AMG versions deliver much stronger performance.
• Safety package: Forward automatic emergency braking, a driver-attention monitor, and blind-spot monitoring are standard. Other driver-assist features are optional, so you should verify exactly which systems are fitted on the car you are considering.
• Infotainment: The car uses MBUX with dual 12-inch screens, touch and swipe controls, natural voice processing, and online search. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, but they are not wireless, and the system does not update over the air.
• Fuel efficiency: The E53 sedan is rated at 22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway, while the E450 4Matic sedan returns 23 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. The E350 4Matic sedan is rated at 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, and the E63 sedan is rated at 16 mpg city and 23 mpg highway.

Which 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim should I buy?

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is offered in 13 trim levels: E350, E450, AMG E53, AMG E63 S, sedan, wagon, coupe, convertible, E350 4Matic, E450 4Matic, E53 sedan, E63 sedan, and E450 coupe.

Here's the short version:

• E350: This is the entry point, but the base four-cylinder is described as underwhelming, so it makes the most sense if you want the E-Class experience at the lowest starting point and can live without the stronger powertrains.
• E450: This is the best-value choice for most shoppers because it brings the more satisfying electrified inline-six setup and a quieter, more excellent driving character without jumping all the way to AMG pricing.
• AMG E53: Choose this if you want the sharper performance edge, rear-biased AWD, and the more athletic suspension tuning while still keeping much of the E-Class comfort.
• AMG E63 S: This is the enthusiast pick, with the hand-built V8, lowered and widened chassis, and the most extreme performance in the lineup.

Advanced safety features are not standard, so make sure the specific car you choose has the driver-assist equipment you want.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

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

• Deal availability: 34.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 856 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.55% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 73.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $35,767, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class's resale value?

The current average of $35,924 sits slightly below last year's $40,161.

That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy more confidently today but may also limit short-term upside if you plan to resell soon. For future sellers, the current pricing trend means you should expect value retention to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment.

Well-kept examples with desirable features should still attract attention because the E-Class has broad appeal and strong brand recognition. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class safe?

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan and wagon earn a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal, side, and rollover tests, though the driver's side received a four-star rating in the frontal crash test.

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

Forward automatic emergency braking, a driver-attention monitor, and blind-spot monitoring are standard. Other driver-assistance features are optional, so you should confirm the exact safety equipment on any used example you consider.

The safety picture is strong overall, but the fact that advanced safety features are not standard means trim and option content matter a lot. That makes it especially important to verify the build sheet rather than assuming every E-Class has the same protection tech.

Should I buy a 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 34.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 73.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.55% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2021 brings a mid-cycle update to the infotainment system, engines, and exterior styling.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $29,750, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $35,924 average.
• It offers a stylish design and impressive technology with a more affordable entry point.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $38,758, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $35,924 average.
• It keeps the refreshed formula and adds standard automatic high beams across the lineup.

The bottom line: The 2021 is the best all-around choice if you want the refreshed E-Class with strong tech, broad versatility, and a softer used-market price than newer examples. If you are more price-sensitive, the 2020 can make sense as a lower-cost way into the same basic experience.
