Which Mercedes-Benz model should you drive: the E-Class E 350 or the EQE 320+? That’s what we’re here to discuss today. Below, you can compare the 2026 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 350 Sedan to the 2026 Mercedes-Benz EQE 320+ Sedan in performance, key features, and more. Both of these sedans can be found at Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead in Peoria, AZ, when you’re ready.
The key difference between these two models is the powertrain. The EQE 320+ offers an all-electric powertrain, which means no emissions and no filling up at the gas station. The E-Class E 350 is an efficient sedan that uses regenerative braking to recapture some energy lost in driving. However, it does use gasoline to power itself, which means it’s closer to the traditional gas cars that most of us are familiar with.
The E-Class E 350 Sedan has a 2 L inline-4 turbo engine with mild hybrid drive. It produces up to 255 horsepower. Plus, its electric assist can generate up to 23 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque for added response. It has an acceleration time of 6.1 seconds from zero to sixty miles per hour.
The EQE 320+ is an all-electric Sedan with a 96 kWh battery. It has an electric range of up to 308 miles and is rated at 5.8 seconds for acceleration time from zero to sixty miles per hour. It’s rated at 315 horsepower and 416 pound-feet of torque.
Another key difference is transmission type. The E 350 Sedan has a 9G-TRONIC ® 9-speed automatic transmission, while the EQE 320+ Sedan has a single-speed transmission.
If you want to say goodbye to gas stations and start charging your car at home, the EQE 320+ will be the car for you. If, on the other hand, you want to stick to the familiar and comfortable, the E 350 will provide the traditional gas power you’re looking for.
