Keep reading below, then schedule a test drive in Austin. Bringing your own numbers to the lot settles this faster than any spec sheet.

What should you decide first when shopping for an E-Class in Austin?

Start with the body style. Mercedes-Benz of South Austin sells the new E-Class as a sedan, a wagon and a cabriolet, so the body style is the first thing to settle. It also drives both the price and the cargo room, so it comes before the trim.

Trim comes second, and your budget sets the range you can reach. We also sell used Mercedes-Benz vehicles. A Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz goes through certification and includes 24-hour Roadside Assistance plus a one-year unlimited-mileage warranty, which can be extended for up to two more years.

What does a new Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost by trim?

Each step up adds power: the E 350 makes 255 hp, the E 450 makes 375 hp, and the AMG® E 53 Hybrid makes 577 hp.

Set the budget first, then pick the trim it reaches.

Google ratings for the Mercedes-Benz dealers an Austin E-Class buyer can reach

An Austin E-Class buyer can reach three Mercedes-Benz stores: two in Austin proper and one about 30 miles north in Georgetown. Mercedes-Benz of South Austin serves the south side of I-35, including Buda, Kyle, Dripping Springs and the 78748 corridor.

Of our Google reviews, 89 in 100 are five-star. We are one of two Mercedes-Benz franchises in Austin proper. Mercedes-Benz of Austin sits on the north side at 6757 Airport Blvd, and Mercedes-Benz of Georgetown is about 30 miles up the interstate.

For a buyer in Buda, Kyle or Dripping Springs, the Mercedes-Benz store on the south side of I-35 keeps a test drive or a service visit off the north side of town.

What should you check on an E-Class test drive in Austin?

Check the rear seat and the driver-assist features, because you can judge both in person. Mercedes-Benz’s published front-row legroom for the E-Class is 41.5 inches. Edmunds lists 36.2 inches of rear legroom for the 2026 sedan (Edmunds, 2026). Measure the space you need in the back before you sit in the front.

Check the driver-assist features too. Mercedes-Benz USA lists Blind Spot Assist with Exit Warning and a dashcam as standard on the sedan, and standard DISTRONIC can adapt your cruising speed to stop-and-go traffic (Mercedes-Benz USA). iSeeCars lists automatic emergency braking front and rear and a surround view camera as standard on the E 350, E 350 4MATIC®, E 450 4MATIC® and AMG® E 53 Hybrid sedans (iSeeCars, 2026).

Sales hours at 10900 S I-35 Frontage Rd are Monday to Friday 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM, and on Saturday the doors open at the same time and close at 6:00 PM. Sales is closed Sunday.

What goes into an E-Class out-the-door price in Texas?

Ask for one written out-the-door price, with the vehicle price, Texas sales tax, title and registration, and the documentary fee each on its own line. Texas sets the tax rate and the rules on the documentary fee, so you can check each line against the state’s figures.

Texas motor vehicle sales tax is 6.25% of the sales price, minus any trade-in allowance (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts). Every figure in this example is hypothetical. Suppose a $70,000 sale with a $20,000 trade-in. The taxable amount is $50,000, and 6.25% of that is $3,125.

The registration fee for a passenger vehicle or truck of 6,000 lbs or less is $50.75, plus applicable fees including local county fees (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, Fee Chart 1C, 2026). Before charging a documentary fee greater than $225, a seller must give the Texas Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner a notification and a cost analysis. If a line does not match these figures, question it before you sign.

How do you price a trade-in and pay for an E-Class in Austin?

Price the trade-in first, because Texas taxes the sales price after the trade-in allowance is subtracted (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, 2026). At Mercedes-Benz of South Austin, you can bring a trade in without an appointment.

We offer both financing specials and leasing specials. Our website also has a secure finance application, so you can start the application from home.

What does the E-Class warranty cover, and where is it serviced in Austin?

The E-Class carries a basic warranty of 4 years or 50,000 miles, according to Mercedes-Benz’s published 2026 warranty booklet. If a vehicle is reacquired under a Texas lemon law final order, the basic warranty the manufacturer must issue after the repair runs at least 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, 2024).

Mercedes-Benz of South Austin runs a full service and parts operation at 10900 S I-35 Frontage Rd. The store is part of Group 1 Automotive. In a January 2026 Google review, Joseph E. wrote: “Imad was great and kept me updated on the progress of the repairs. Repairs were done in a timely manner and resolved all issues. Will definitely bring my car back.”

Read the addendum line by line before you sign, and ask about any item you did not request.

Texas rules require a dealer’s featured sales price to include destination and dealer preparation charges and any dealership markup. Only registration, title or license fees, taxes and other fees the law expressly allows may be left out (Texas Administrative Code, 2024). If an advertised price applies to one specific vehicle, the advertisement must also disclose its stock number or VIN (Texas Administrative Code, 2017). Ask for the stock number or VIN on the quote.
