The 2017 E-Class Vs. BMW 5 Series

The Pinnacle Of Luxury & Performance

Tallahassee, Panama City and Marianna drivers who want a vehicle that delivers it all can find it packed inside the 2017 E-Class at Capital Eurocars. Unlike its rival, the new BMW 5 Series, the 2017 E-Class offers the perfect blend of luxury and performance.

The new E-Class provides its drivers with top-shelf comfort, rich styling and the kind of state-of-the-art technology that leaves 5 Series drivers envious. Visit Capital Eurocars, test drive the 2017 E-Class and compare it to the 5 Series today.

Not Designed For Blending In

Unlike the new 5 Series, the 2017 E-Class features an exterior that is less blocky and includes a more curvaceous and aerodynamic design. The new E-Class also offers a range of body styles. Mercedes-Benz offers the 2017 E-Class as a sedan, wagon, coupe, convertible and high-performance AMG^® models.

You Won't Lose A Power Struggle

The 2017 E 300 comes standard with a 241-horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine. The BMW 528i offers a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine, but churns out less power and doesn't deliver as much torque.

The 2017 E-Class also offers the E 400 coupe and cabriolet which come with a 3.0-liter V6 that delivers 329-horsepower. If that's still not enough, there is the AMG^® E 43's 396-horsepower and the 4.7-liter V8 E 550 coupe and cabriolet that churns out 402-horsepower - both more than BMW 540i's 335-horsepower V6.

A First-Class Cabin

The focal point of the new E 300's interior is its undulating dash. Mercedes-Benz placed all the controls exactly where drivers need them to be, then added a series of luxury finishes such as the standard grain brown ash wood trim (or other optional wood finishes) and available 64-color ambient lighting. The result is a dash and doors that seamlessly connect to the unencumbered design of the E 300's 5-person seating.

The exquisite craftsmanship of the new E-Class cabin extends to other available features like a power tilt and sliding tinted sunroof, a panorama roof and a wood and leather steering wheel.

The Apex Of High Tech

When it comes to infotainment, convenience and tech features, the 2017 E-Series remains miles ahead of the 5 Series. The new E-Class infotainment system, COMAND^®, is controlled by either a touchpad or a knob. The knob is located in the center console area and the touchpad is located right on the steering wheel. These controls connect to a 12.3-inch screen where drivers can set climate control, navigation and audio inside the cabin.

Additional available tech features include:

• Apple CarPlay™ and Android Audio™
• 13 or 23-speaker Burmester 3-D surround sound
• Air purifications system
• Bluetooth^®*
• Dual-zone climate control
• USB ports
• CD/DVD player

The 2017 E-Class received a perfect score in all 3 crash tests, earning the vehicles a 5-star overall crash test rating by the NHTSA.
