2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS

Priced at just $22,999 with 68,710 miles, this sophisticated gray E 300 represents one of the best values in the used luxury car market today.

About This 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 300 4MATIC

The W213-generation E-Class — which is what you're looking at here — is widely regarded as one of Mercedes-Benz's finest efforts in recent memory. This particular 2018 model sits at a sweet spot in its ownership lifecycle: well past the sharpest depreciation curve, yet young enough to carry years of dependable, comfortable driving ahead. At just under 69,000 miles, this E 300 has been broken in without being worn down. For a vehicle built to Mercedes-Benz standards, these miles represent a car that's barely gotten started. The gray exterior gives it a sleek, understated presence that wears well in any setting — from a downtown Yakima commute to a weekend drive through the Cascade foothills.

2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Performance and Engine

Turbocharged 2.0-Liter Four-Cylinder Power

Don't let the four-cylinder designation fool you. Mercedes-Benz's turbocharged 2.0-liter engine in the E 300 produces a robust 241 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque — figures that put many naturally aspirated V6 engines to shame. The result is confident, smooth acceleration that feels effortlessly linear, not forced.

9G-TRONIC 9-Speed Automatic Transmission

Paired to that engine is Mercedes-Benz's acclaimed 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission, one of the smoothest-shifting gearboxes available in any class of vehicle. Gear changes are virtually imperceptible in daily driving, contributing to the E-Class's signature composed ride quality.

4MATIC All-Wheel Drive

The 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system is a meaningful advantage for drivers in Yakima County. Whether you're navigating slushy winter roads heading toward White Pass or dealing with icy morning commutes through the Yakima Valley, the 4MATIC system provides sure-footed traction and added confidence in changing conditions. This isn't just a luxury feature — in central Washington, it's a genuine practical asset.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Features and Interior

What the E 300 Trim Includes

The E 300 trim level sits as the entry point into the E-Class lineup, but "entry point" for Mercedes-Benz still means a genuinely well-appointed cabin. The interior of this W213-generation E-Class is a significant step forward from its predecessor, featuring a wide dual-screen cockpit layout that was groundbreaking when it debuted. Standard features on the 2018 E 300 include Mercedes-Benz's COMAND infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat with memory function, and ambient interior lighting. The leather seating surfaces, wood trim accents, and attention to material quality create an environment that feels genuinely premium — not aspirationally so.

Safety Technology

The 2018 E-Class earned strong safety scores and came loaded with driver assistance technology well ahead of its time. Features like Active Brake Assist, Attention Assist drowsiness detection, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-keeping assist were standard or widely available at this trim level, making this a car that actively helps you avoid accidents rather than just protecting you after one.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Reliability and Ownership

The W213 E-Class generation has earned a strong reputation for long-term durability when properly maintained. Mercedes-Benz turbocharged four-cylinder engines from this era are well-engineered and respond well to regular oil changes — which, given the performance they produce, is the most important maintenance task an owner can perform. The 9G-TRONIC transmission has proven reliable across hundreds of thousands of vehicles worldwide. Owners of this generation E-Class frequently report high satisfaction with the ride quality, technology, and engine refinement. As with any European luxury vehicle, staying on top of scheduled maintenance intervals is key, but buyers who do so are routinely rewarded with vehicles that last well into six-figure mileage without significant issues. At 68,710 miles, this E 300 still has a long, enjoyable ownership runway ahead.

The E 300 4MATIC is the all-wheel-drive variant of the base E 300 trim. It includes Mercedes-Benz's 4MATIC AWD system, the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, the 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission, COMAND infotainment, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and a full suite of driver assistance safety features.

Is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz E 300 good in snow and winter weather?

The 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system makes the E 300 significantly more capable in winter conditions than a rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan.

Why is this E-Class priced so competitively at $22,999?

European luxury sedans depreciate quickly in their early years, which works in the buyer's favor. A 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class that retailed for well over $55,000 new is now available at Own A Car Yakima for $22,999 — giving you access to genuine luxury, advanced technology, and all-wheel drive at a fraction of the original cost.
