Next-gen Mercedes-Benz E-Class patent images leaked

The AMG versions of the E-Class will be powered by 4-cylinder electrically-assisted powertrains.

Mercedes-Benz has been working on the next-generation E-Class for a while now, with camouflaged test mules spotted on a number of occasions. However, ahead of its expected arrival in either 2023 or early 2024, patent images of the final iteration of the next-gen E-Class have been leaked online.

As per the images, the new-gen E-Class looks similar to the outgoing model, albeit with a few revisions and updates. These include a new front grille, sleeker LED headlamp setups and tail lights inspired by the larger S-Class sibling.

Inside, the new E-Class is expected to come with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a large portrait-oriented touchscreen infotainment system, along with a host of other features and tech.

In terms of powertrain options, the new-gen Mercedes-Benz E-Class will be offered with mild-hybrid petrol and diesel engines. Reports suggest a plug-in hybrid version could also be offered on the higher trims. The AMG versions of the E-Class will also be powered by 4-cylinder electrically-assisted powertrains.
