As for the passenger who wins and loses in serious austerity, it is closer to the benefits offered by the E-Class features a revamped dashboard, a new steering wheel from the CLS and a large screen. Several inserts are available, and brushed aluminum trim, that complete the whole, abandoning without regret the black plastic infesting the current version.
