This facelifted E 63 receives an almost identical parts list to the updated standard-issue E-Class. Up front, there’s a pair of new LED headlights, a reshaped radiator grille and a revised front bumper – and at the rear, this E 63 estate adopts the standard E-Class’s latest tailgate and rear lamps.
Interior revisions will be equally minimal. Like the standard E-Class, buyers will receive a new sports steering wheel with more responsive touch-sensitive buttons, a couple of trim updates and some fresh graphics for Mercedes’s MBUX dual-screen infotainment system.
The facelift will also bring a few extra driver assistance systems to the E 63. There’ll be an updated version of the previous model’s semi-autonomous driving system, which no longer requires the driver to wiggle the wheel to notify the system that they’re paying attention to the road. The new wheel is capacitive – so gripping it will provide enough feedback.
Buyers will also get Mercedes’s Active Speed Limit Assist system, which can automatically adjust the car’s cruise control according to traffic signs, corners and junctions. The new E 63 will also source traffic data online and decelerate the car in anticipation of jams ahead, even before the car’s radar can see them.
