2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class learns from the past, looks to the future
, according to interior designer Erik Degen. He describes the interior vibe as"cocooning." From the driver's seat, you feel like the dashboard is around you rather than in front of you because LED strips link it to the door panels; this is seen in the EQE as well, but the strips stretch even further back in the new E-Class.
More screens allowed engineers to program more features into the E-Class. From the middle or the right-side screen, you can play, browse TikTok, stream videos, and even take a selfie using one of the in-car cameras. Alternatively, this camera can power in-car Zoom meetings. Many of these features are optional, and some rely on a new, 5G-compatible communication module.
While that's a lot to take in, my first impression is that you won't overdose on technology halfway through a long drive. The infotainment system's icons can be rearranged for easy access, like on a smartphone or a tablet, and the interior features leather upholstery, wood trim, and materials that are nice to touch and look at. It's an interesting and cohesive blend of classic craftsmanship and the latest technology.
Special attention was given to the MBUX system's interface. Mercedes-Benz, like many of its peers and rivals, is realizing that driving around with what's essentially a big tablet causes distractions."We created new icons. They look more like smartphone icons, so they're more intuitive to operate while driving because they're easier to recognize," pointed out MBUX expert Christopher Gäng.
One of the coolest interior features isn't inspired by the past or fueled by 22nd century-like technology; it's super simple and very clever. There are two storage compartments in the center console. One is located where the shifter was on a lot of older cars , and the other is under the armrest. The charging ports live in the latter, but a tiny cable tunnel connects it to the former so you can charge your phone without opening the armrest or driving with the armrest open.
