It will delight its customers, because no changes have been made to the exterior appearance of the regular E-Class, and at the same time it includes an entire compact, intelligent and modular hybrid concept.
In addition, no compromises were made in terms of space, safety and comfort. In fact, significant increase in comfort has been achieved thank to the start/stop operation which allows a noiseless start.
What is more important here is that the combined consumption of this hybrid is estimated of 27 mpg.

Furthermore, the customers will enjoy the impressive hybrid driving experience thanks to the start/stop function, regenerative braking, boost effect, purely electric motoring and "sailing" function.
The E400 Hybrid gets is power from the electric motor which is mated to a 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine. The latter generates 302 horsepower (222 kW) and 273 pound-feet of torque.
The E400 Hybrid made its first world appearance at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show earlier this year as an US version of the European E300 BlueTEC HYBRID.
