The 2025 Mercedes-Benz E-Class remains one of the most compelling executive cars available to UK fleets, thanks to its blend of refinement, technology and efficiency. Its extensive powertrain range — from refined petrol and diesel engines to low-emission plug-in hybrids — allows fleet managers to tailor specification for company-car tax and operational needs.
Inside, the E-Class offers a remarkably serene and luxurious cabin with high-grade materials, advanced digital displays and Mercedes-Benz’s latest driver-assist systems as standard. Rear-seat comfort is excellent, making it ideal for business travellers, and the generous boot provides practicality for luggage or equipment.
On the road, the E-Class delivers composed and assured performance with a ride quality that soaks up poor surfaces and keeps occupants relaxed over long distances. The PHEV versions add smooth, efficient electric-assisted driving, helping reduce running costs and emissions without sacrificing refinement.
“If you want a premium executive saloon that delivers comfort, tech and efficiency in equal measure, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class remains hard to beat” – FleetWise
