2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 review

1. Multiple body styles 

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 is one of those rare models that offers several body styles. If you only carry the occasional passenger, the coupe is the body style you want. If you carry passengers and you want them to experience optimum comfort, select the sedan. However, if you're looking for more of a carpool vehicle, the wagon is what you want. 

2. Drop your top 

If you live in a sunny climate and don't need a four-season vehicle, opt for the rear-wheel-drive-only convertible. The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 Cabriolet comes with the same sumptuous interior as the coupe and seats four. The acoustic soft top insulates against wind noise, and when you drop the top, the standard Aircap helps deflect interior wind. Look for the available Airscarf that offers neck-level heating for cooler days. 

3. Unobtrusive driver-assistance 

If you want to drive rather than have the car drive you with a bunch of aggressive driver-assist systems, you'll appreciate the minimal level of features that are standard on the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350. The primary driver-assist features this midsize vehicle includes are a rearview camera, collision prevention assist, and a drowsy-driver alert. If you want a little extra assistance, look out for options such as adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, 360-degree camera views, and rear cross-traffic alert. 

4. Decent passenger space 

In addition to comfy seats in every position, the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 offers a nice amount of rear head and legroom for adult passengers. So, whether you opt for the four-seat convertible, five-seat sedan, or seven-seat wagon, your backseat passengers will travel in style. Delight your smallest passengers with the wagon's kid-sized rear-facing pop-up seats. 

5. Refined interior 

The interior of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 is chockful of chrome accents, leather materials, and real wood accents for a finished look. If you like details, you'll appreciate the beveled edges on the metal dials and the split-open, leather-wrapped arm-rest. Plus, the relationship-saving heated front seats and dual automatic climate controls are standard.
