Car buyers in the USA might have fallen out of love with the station wagon but the Mercedes wagon is not dead yet. This once-beloved body style still has a lot going for it, such as the high passenger and cargo capacity of an SUV, but with the handling and fuel economy of a sedan. Mercedes hopes that adding a dash of German prestige and style will lure buyers back from their SUVs and dispel the ‘stuffy’ image of the station wagons of yesteryear.
This is a list of the Mercedes-Benz wagon models and prices in the US:
Model | Power | Engine | Base Price |
---|---|---|---|
Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain | 362 hp | 3.0L Turbo Inline-6 Gas | $71,250 |
Mercedes-Benz E-Class Wagon | 362 hp | 3.0L Twin-Turbo V6 Gas | $66,100 |
Mercedes-AMG E63 Wagon | 603 hp | 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 Gas | $121,100 |
Station wagons are a dying breed, with most automakers abandoning the body style altogether. However, this doesn’t mean there is no competition to the Mercedes-Benz wagon lineup. In fact, it is mostly luxury automakers that still have a few station wagon models on offer, so the competition is quite strong. So what qualities help the Mercedes wagons stand out?
