Comfort and Luxury

Safety
The E-Class and C-Class both come with a range of standard safety features, such as a rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking. The E-Class also offers optional features, such as lane-keeping assist and blind-spot monitoring.
Price
The C-Class starts at $41,400, while the E-Class starts at $54,000. The price difference is due to the larger size and more powerful engine options available in the E-Class.
Conclusion
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class and C-Class are both excellent luxury vehicles. The E-Class offers more power and space, while the C-Class is more affordable and fuel-efficient. Ultimately, the choice between the two models comes down to your budget and what you’re looking for in a luxury vehicle.
