Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has rolled out the latest MY2018 updates for the W213 E-Class range, which includes minor styling changes and cool ambient lighting upgrades. Here’s a short video and a full gallery of the latest Malaysian-market E 350 e Exclusive Line EQ Power in detail.
First of all, the E 350 e plug-in hybrid models get EQ Power branding, following the initial introduction on the C 350 e in April. Like the junior PHEV, the E 350 e also gets EQ Power badges on the front fenders, as well as within the digital instrument cluster. The distinctive but unpopular blue brake calipers have been dropped for plain grey/silver units.
Less apparent but no less significant are the changes introduced for the interior. One of the biggest complaints for the W213 dashboard concerns its piano black centre trim, which, besides looking rather muted, are notoriously prone to scratches.
For MY2018 models – in Malaysia beginning May/June onwards – all variants bar the base E 200 Avantgarde get a new centre console piece to match the top trim panel. In the E 350 e Exclusive Line seen here, it’s open pore brown wood trim all around.
Also new are more elaborate controls for the ambient lighting functions. On top of the usual 64-colour lighting feature, MY2018 models now get multi-colour themes (different colours for the top, middle and bottom LED illuminations), animation (slow cycle of colours), welcome and climate functions. Watch it all in action in the video above. And no, older models can’t be upgraded to have these new features.
The E 200 Avantgarde is now priced at RM315,029.75, while the E 250 Avantgarde and Exclusive both go for RM357,482.58. The E 350 e Exclusive EQ Power will set you back RM370,690.12, slightly under the E 350 e AMG Line EQ Power at RM377,293.90. All prices are GST-free – refer to the full Mercedes-Benz Malaysia pricelist here.

Time for upgrade, Hafriz
Dear MBM, instead of adding new aesthetic features, you should add in more safety features such as adaptive cruise control or autonomous emergency braking.
Autonomous Emergency Braking is already standard on all E-Class models.
Facepalm!
Oh and Selamat hari Raya Haf dude, and also to the others Muslim staff of PT.
Selamat Hari Raya john. Have a good raya bro!!!
Happy Raya to you and to allllllll the other Albertkunta dupes.
The new E class is so expensive compared to the BMW 530e. . Many people get 6% corporate discounts too for the BMW. That further reduces the price. Now it is like a hige gap between the two
Better for Mercedes to rethink their pricing. Huge difference in pricing between BMW and Mercedes
Don’t worry, Malaysia uncle is easy to cheat.
This is the New Malaysia john. We don’t cheat. The New Malaysia is not like your BN. We do things honestly.
Hahaha! U cant even reply to ur dupe properly. What a failure!
why big fuss over honesty.
hvin shortcuts and work less is our budaya, keep on feedings and pampers own member. this nation wealth belong to us
530e is empty spec compare to e350e. 530e no 360 degree camera, no HK sound system, no panoramic roof, no adaptive high beam, no adaptive cruise control
Can’t drive is it?
Can
how much for 1week rental, Mercedes E350e.
Nowadays, Mercedes exterior design looks like very old grandfather design. Not only that, Mercedes only have 4 years unlimited warranty compared to almost all car manufacturer company have 5 years unlimited warranty. Mercedes Benz also paid fatter fined due to cheated emissions regulators with defeat devices as DieselGate Scandal
Sorry, I accidentally duplicate again
