The W211 E-Class is a staple of recent Mercedes-Benz history, bringing both performance and utility to the customer at a reasonable price point. The W211 could be had in both a sedan and wagon trim, and engines ranged from the OM642 and 648 diesel six-cylinders, to the M112 and M272 V6s, to the M113 and M273 V8s.
4MATIC and rear-driven models were available, and brake-by-wire was used for the first time alongside the R230 model; this provision allowed for the introduction of the "Sensotronic Brake System" as pressure-manipulative braking system used to provide computer-automated stability control at each wheel (though this was shelved in 2006 save for lower-production vehicles like the R230 SL).
The E55 AMG produced absurd power for the time period via the supercharged M113K, yet retained reliability through a robust design. Late in production, the M156 of the E63 provided similar power in a 6.2L naturally-aspirated format. The AIRMATIC suspension design was also made largely mainstream on the W211 models.
