Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is the W214 executive sedan, launched in Malaysia in 2024 for buyers wanting a rear-wheel-drive Mercedes in the traditional business-class format. It starts from RM367,888 and comes as either the E200 mild hybrid or the more powerful E350e plug-in hybrid, both with five seats and automatic transmission.

E-Class in 2026 — what's new

No 2026-specific changes are announced, so the W214 E-Class carries into 2026 unchanged. The Malaysian range remains a two-car line-up: the E200 Avantgarde with a 1,999 cc 224 hp petrol hybrid powertrain, and the E350e AMG Line with a 1,999 cc 328 hp petrol plug-in hybrid system. This generation arrived in Malaysia in 2024.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should pick the RM367,888 E200 Avantgarde. It is the lower-priced entry into the W214 range, with 224 hp from its 1,999 cc petrol hybrid powertrain, rear-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox. The RM418,888 E350e AMG Line costs RM51,000 more and raises output to 328 hp while adding plug-in hybrid capability. Pay more only if that PHEV drivetrain and extra power matter to you; both are rear-wheel-drive five-seat automatics.

Verdict

The W214 keeps the E-Class formula in an executive-sedan shape, but with a significant redesign and a fully revamped cabin that introduces the MBUX Superscreen. The two powertrain choices give buyers a clear mild-hybrid or plug-in-hybrid decision. Price needs consideration: the E200 starts above the Volvo ES90 and BMW 5 Series, while the E350e sits above the Mercedes-Benz EQE’s entry price.
