Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate S212 facelift

Product Overview
Mercedes-Benz E-class Estate S212 facelift is an executive station wagon in production from 2013 to 2016. It was available with a range of inline-4, V6, and V8 engines that displaced 2.0 to 5.5 liters.
For the first time, Mercedes introduced an E 63 AMG S alongside the standard E 63 AMG. This became possible as the entire lineup went to forced induction. Otherwise, a lot of the same engines were carried over from the pre-facelift model.
From many angles, this facelift addressed some of the awkwardness in the styling of the pre-facelift S212. Mercedes also improved the 7G-Tronic automatic transmission.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the S212 E-class Estate comes with multi-link suspensions at all four corners. This provides the best cornering performance and tunability, at the expense of cost and a little bit of durability.
