Yahoo Autos 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class wagon hangs in there for another generation
It appears a report from February this year about Mercedes-Benz severely abridging its lineup is near to coming true. Car and Driver got hands on a sheaf of paperwork the German automaker filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency concerning the 2024 model-year lineup around the newly introduced W214 E-Class. Perhaps the most surprising bit is that the posh gardener version of the E-Class wagon carries on, a new version making its way to the latest E for next year, keeping the name E 450 4Matic All-Terrain Wagon. We've been told the E-Class wagon stays in circulation in Europe until 2023, and although a certain New-England-ish corner of this country has had an especial affinity for Mercedes wagons, we're surprised this $72,000 shopping cart made the cut.
The EPA paperwork neglected to mention the AMG E 63 Wagon, the version that swaps extra cladding for extra cojones. Should that be penciled in for the 2025 model year, rumors say we'll get around 700 horsepower and 884 pound-feet of torque from an inline-six PHEV powertrain.
