Today on TheStraightPipes, Jacob and Yuri take on the 2025 Mercedes E450 formatic, a car that promises power and luxury. With a 3L turbo inline-6 engine churning out 375hp and 369lb-ft of torque, this E-Class surprises with its performance, feeling more potent than the numbers suggest. However, the transmission's behavior in sport mode raises eyebrows, while Comfort mode offers a smoother, more refined driving experience reminiscent of the luxurious S-Class.
The exterior design of the E450 draws inspiration from the prestigious S-Class, featuring unique headlight and taillight designs that set it apart. Despite the elegant aesthetics, the team expresses disappointment in the fake exhaust tips, a detail that falls short of the overall sophisticated look. The car's interior boasts comfort and technology, with a camera system that raises questions about privacy and functionality, adding a touch of modernity to the traditional luxury experience.
While the E-Class lacks air suspension, the ride remains serene and comfortable, rivaling the experience offered by the 5 Series BMW. Inside, the infotainment system impresses with wired and wireless connectivity options, a premium Burmester sound system, and luxurious seats with massage functions. However, the absence of a physical button for the heated steering wheel prompts a humorous exploration of voice commands, highlighting the quirks of modern car technology. Despite minor flaws, the Mercedes E450 formatic stands as a compelling blend of power, luxury, and cutting-edge features, making it a worthy contender in the premium sedan segment.
