The new W213-generation 2021 Mercedes-Benz E-Class facelift was finally launched in Malaysia on 29-July, 7 months after the car was first spied by WapCar.my on a trailer in Puchong, near Mercedes-Benz Malaysia’s head office in Kinrara. The Malaysian launch of the new E-Class came five months after Thailand and one month after Vietnam – both are locally-assembled, just like Malaysia. Obviously the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic was a factor but let’s not talk about Malaysia in isolation, as if Thailan

Mercedes-Benz E-Class With the unveiling of the new 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, it’s time to take a closer look at the changes compared to its predecessor.
