How much does the 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

Prices have softened 6.21% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 918 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class a good car?

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns an 8.33/10 expert rating, and it’s described as a redesigned midsize luxury sedan that keeps the model’s familiar identity while adding a more technology-rich interior and understated styling.

The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Performance, and Technology.

Its strongest appeal is the combination of a great ride quality, premium interior materials, and impressive technology, and it’s presented as the kind of sedan that remains at the top of its segment when equipped with all the extras. The trade-offs are a high price and poor fuel economy, plus minor driving-assistance irritations.

With 32.8% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively rather than rush.

Is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class reliable?

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is framed as a refined, sophisticated luxury sedan with standard mild-hybrid drivetrains and a calm, soothing driving character.

Its powertrain is described as using a 48-volt mild-hybrid system with an integrated starter/generator, which helps improve efficiency by reducing the engine’s accessory load while an electric motor assists launch. That setup supports the car’s smooth, modern feel, and the overall package is positioned as technologically advanced and well sorted for daily use.

If you plan to keep one long term, the main ownership risk for used buyers is that its advanced systems and premium hardware can make repairs and upkeep more expensive than simpler alternatives.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 90.7% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on a car with lots of technology and optional equipment. Focus on whether the features you care about are actually present, whether the cabin and electronics work as intended, and whether the car shows signs of heavy use or deferred maintenance.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The E-Class comes in E 350 4Matic and E 450 4Matic sedan models. The E 350 4Matic is the more accessible choice, while the E 450 4Matic adds more power and is the better fit if you want stronger acceleration and a more effortless feel.
• Powertrain: The E 350 4Matic uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, while the E 450 4Matic uses a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder with 375 hp and 369 lb-ft. Both use a nine-speed automatic, standard 4Matic all-wheel drive, and a 48-volt mild-hybrid system.
• Safety package: The Driver Assistance Package adds 15 technologies, including upgraded Pre-Safe features, Active Emergency Stop Assist, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping, lane-centering, lane-change systems, Automatic Lane Change, Active Speed Limit Assist, and Route-based Speed Adaptation. Some of those systems can feel intrusive or overly cautious, so make sure they suit your driving style.
• Infotainment: Standard equipment includes a 12.3-inch digital instrument display and a 14.4-inch infotainment touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, along with a navigation system, Wi-Fi hotspot access, and augmented video technology. A head-up display is available, and the Superscreen Package adds a passenger-side display.
• Fuel efficiency: The E 350 is rated at 27 mpg in combined driving, though the test vehicle returned 23.8 mpg in real-world use.

Which 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class trim should I buy?

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is offered in 2 trim levels: E 350 4Matic and E 450 4Matic.

Here's the short version:

• E 350 4Matic: This is the best-value choice if you want the core E-Class experience with the standard turbocharged four-cylinder, mild-hybrid assistance, and all-wheel drive. It delivers plenty of power for most buyers and gives you the luxury, ride quality, and technology that define the car without stepping up to the pricier engine.
• E 450 4Matic: Choose this if you want the stronger turbocharged inline-six and quicker acceleration. It’s the better pick if you care more about effortless performance than keeping the purchase price in check.

The Driver Assistance Package is optional, so make sure you verify whether a used example has it if advanced driver-assistance features matter to you.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 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: 32.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 918 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.21% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 90.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $54,861, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class's resale value?

The current average of $54,898 sits slightly below last year's $58,532.

That decline suggests the market has moved in your favor as a buyer, but it also means a future seller may need to price competitively to stand out. If you buy well now, you may have less downside exposure than someone who paid closer to the prior-year average. The strongest resale position will likely come from a well-equipped example with desirable options, clean history, and strong condition.

Is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class safe?

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Every 2024 E-Class includes numerous safety features, but the full suite of advanced driver-assistance systems requires the Driver Assistance Package. That package adds upgraded Pre-Safe pre-collision features, Active Emergency Stop Assist, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping, lane-centering, lane-change systems, Automatic Lane Change, Active Speed Limit Assist, and Route-based Speed Adaptation.

Some of those systems work well in daily driving, but the lane-centering can feel a little unsure on curvier roads, and the speed-assist features can be overly eager to react to posted limits. If you want the most advanced safety tech, make sure the used car you’re considering has the package installed.

Should I buy a 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 32.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 90.7% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.21% compared with last year.
• The redesign brings a more technology-rich cabin, understated styling, and a refined, soothing driving experience.

The bottom line: If you want the newest redesign, the strongest tech story, and a luxury sedan that feels especially polished, the 2024 is the right target. If your priority is stretching your budget further, a different year may offer a lower entry price, but the 2024 is the better choice when you want the updated cabin and current feature set.
