2015 Mercedes-Benz E400 Twin-Turbo V-6, 2015 Mercedes-Benz E400 Twin-Turbo V-6 Images Review :
The top-shelf E-class will drop two cylinders but keep the twin turbos.
When January 1 hits, nobody who follows the auto industry for a living has any problem remembering what year it is. Model years have had us thinking 2013 since sometime in mid-2012. It’s as refreshing to have the rest of the country join us in 2013 as it is disheartening that Ryan Seacrest still exists. Now, thanks to Mercedes, we’re really getting ahead of ourselves.
The E-class is getting a major overhaul for (model year) 2014. The E350 and the E550 4MATIC are going on sale in spring of this year, along with a new E400 hybrid. The E350 sedan will be available with rear- or all-wheel drive; the wagon will be available only with all-wheel drive. Later this summer, the 2014 E250 BlueTec diesel will go on sale. More than a year after that, in the fall of 2014, the 2015 E400 (not to be confused with the aforementioned E400 hybrid) will appear. In the sedan, the twin-turbo six will replace the E550’s V-8. In the E-class coupe and convertible, it won’t. (More on that in a second.).
