2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Much better sized for me. My prior 2007 three series BMW was too small and cramped. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008 4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Can spend all day driving this car and not be exhausted. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008 4dr Sedan 382-horsepower 5.5L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The most comfortable seats among all its rivals including Lexus, Jaguar, BMW, Audi, and Infiniti. Plenty of adjustments in the seat and the telescoping steering wheel. Plenty of front seat room for people 6 foot tall and more. Provides ample support. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Driving 4-5 hours in a row left no fatigue or discomfort in my back or legs. The seats are just firm enough but very supportive where they need to be. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 382-horsepower 5.5L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The back seat is very comfortable and provides good headroom and seating support. They fold down to provide additional storage room. My complaint is that it is not S class roomy in the back. Leg and foot room can be limited if sitting behind a tall driver see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
