When it comes to luxury cars, women love the Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan (V6). Considered as the ideal high-end car, its performance is not designed to disappoint. With its power, reliability, and strength, it’s an ultimate bonus that this car has a soothing presence. The price ranges from $53,575 to $102,675. Of course, the E-Class comes in different forms – Sedan, Coupe, Cabriolet, and Wagon with every form with its respective engine. All E-Class models, however, use a 7-speed automatic transmission. The cost range starts from E350 with its 302-horsepower and 3.5L V6. Next is E400, made special by its turbocharged 3.0L V6 and 330-horsepower. The priciest is the AMG E63 S which many consider is focused on delivering a notable performance on the road with its 585-hp and 5.5L twin-turbocharged V8.

In just one look, the new E-Class Sedan captivates the senses. It starts with the all-new front end, comprised of LED headlamps that come standard, a redesigned grille with chrome pins, and AMG body cladding for a sporty, yet elegant appearance. Even the tail lamps have been revamped to feature a new geometric design, while new colors and materials present upgrades both inside and out, and an expanded selection of wheels allows for greater customization.

Once it’s in “Drive,” you can find the latest generation of Driver Assistance Systems available, providing cooperative support to drivers and resulting in an especially high level of safety and convenience. Take, for example, the intelligent hands-off detection which uses sensors in the rim of the steering wheel to determine if the driver is holding the wheel and initiate Active Emergency Stop Assist when needed. Also available in some E-Classes, are Active Steering Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist and Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC®, an adaptive cruise control system that automatically adjusts your speed for traffic ahead. In total, many of the driver assistance features offer a new level of automotive intelligence.

Adding to its progressive nature, the E 450 models have received a 3.0L inline 6-cylinder turbo engine with EQ Boost technology and a 48-volt onboard electrical system. The MBUX multimedia system incorporates Artificial Intelligence and optional Augmented Video for Navigation, projecting graphics like arrows and house numbers directly onto the image. Plus, smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay® and Android AutoTM allow for seamless connectivity. And for all of its advanced features, the elegant comforts of the E-Class heritage remain standard, from heated front seats to the widescreen cockpit. It’s a complete rework of an automotive icon, and a fully realized vision of the future of luxury driving.

The ES 350 entered its 7th-generation in the year 2019 when the sedan underwent some major and thorough refurbishment. Now, it's been just 2 years since the new generation of the ES 350, the sedan parades into the year 2021 without any major changes. Basically, the Lexus ES’ platform is that of Toyota Avalon’s. However, this car’s longer wheelbase generates a more spacious interior, something the female drivers find very practical, particularly on the rear side.

Even though the 2021 Lexus ES is a sedate offering in a segment dominated by legitimate sports sedans, it delivers what a certain group of luxury car buyers are looking for in terms of comfort, ride quality, and effortless cruising capability. Three powertrains are offered: A V-6 engine with 302-hp, a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with all-wheel drive, or a hybrid setup that delivers fantastic fuel economy. As for luxury, the ES's cabin is a lovely space that's lined with fine materials, supportive seats, and plenty of technology features and connectivity options.

Lexus is adding the ES250 to the ES lineup this year, which is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder and comes standard with all-wheel drive. Like Lexus' RX SUV, the ES sedan also receives a Black Line Special Edition package for 2021. Based on the F Sport model, the Black Line package adds black exterior trim, a black lip spoiler, a white interior, and a two-piece matching luggage set from Zero Halliburton. Elsewhere, blind spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is now standard on Ultra Luxury and F Sport models, a new Rich Cream interior color is available, and Lexus's Enform Safety Connect suite of connectivity features—including onboard Wi-Fi—is now standard across the entire range.

Luxury-car buyers look for vehicles offering the latest and greatest tech features, and the 2021 Lexus ES doesn't disappoint. It comes standard with an infotainment system governed by an 8.0-inch central display, and both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability are onboard to provide hassle-free device integration. All models come with a 10-speaker sound system equipped with SiriusXM satellite radio. The list of standard tech amenities also includes Amazon Alexa compatibility, Bluetooth phone and music streaming, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and Scout GPS Link navigation.

The 2021 Lexus ES 350 holds a variety of safety measures and driver-assist systems. Lexus sells its safety systems under the umbrella name of “Lexus Safety System+ 2.0.” Features such as Pre-Collision System, Lane Tracing Assist, Lane Departure Assist, Road Sign Assist, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Intelligent High Beams, and many more are available in the sedan. Lexus has also provided several other luxuries to keep the driver at ease during parking or reversing in crowded areas. The company also offers an optional package that holds services like Blind Spot Monitoring System, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Intuitive Car Parking Assist.

The car offers independent suspension leading to a smoother and comfy ride. Powered by a 3.5L V6 that makes 268 horsepower and delivers an estimated 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway, the Lexus ES is an awesome choice. Also, this is partnered to a 6-speed sequential-shift automatic. On the other hand, the new ES 300h Hybrid runs on a 2.5L 4-cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine that is mated to an electric motor. With this combination, the performance can go high up to an impressive 200 horsepower and gets approximate of 40 mpg city and 39 mpg highway.
