Almost as old as World War II, the best-selling model in the history of Mercedes-Benz adopted the “E-Class” moniker in 1994. It returns with substantial changes for 2021, though once again available in sedan, coupe, cabriolet and wagon body styles. Output ranges from 255 to 603 horsepower. With such a comprehensive lineup and a long list of options, don’t be surprised that pricing also varies tremendously.
