2024 Mercedes E-Class vs BMW 5 Series
Comparison Visual Driving, Exterio & Interior Design Overview

The new Mercedes E-Class and BMW 5 Series are luxury business-class sedans that have many fans around the world and have been competing in the market for years, introducing new technology, innovation and modern design, gradually moving from internal combustion engines to electric drive.

With their long bonnet, set-back passenger compartment, short overhangs, a long wheelbase and wide tracks, the proportions of the Mercedes E-Class and BMW 5-Series make no secret of the cars' dynamic character. The proportions of both cars are almost the same, the length and wheelbase of the Mercedes is only 14mm shorter than the BMW, but the E-Class is 12mm wider than the 5 Series.

A black panel-like surface of the E- Class connects the radiator grille with the headlamps. This insert in high-gloss black is visually reminiscent of the Mercedes-EQ models. The three-dimensionally designed radiator grille is either progressive or classic, depending on the equipment line. All headlamp variants offer a distinctive day and night design. As a typical feature of the brand, the daytime running lights take the shape of an eyebrow. Powerdomes accentuate the bonnet.

The front end of the BMW 5-Series is headlined of the kidney grille immediately catches the eye with a new, octagonal form. This modern interpretation of the BMW icon adds extra width and height, drops down further into the front apron and is framed by a single-piece surround. Also playing their part in the grille's arresting appearance are the vertical bars, the top sections of which jut further out. The larger dimensions of the BMW kidney grille provide an attractive contrast against the now slimmer headlights.

The side view shows off the harmonious proportions and the distinctive "cab-backward" design to particularly good effect. The flush-fitting door handles familiar from the luxury Mercedes-Benz models are available as an option. The two separate character lines on the side emphasise the car's sporty character.

Highlights at the rear of the E-Class include the two-section LED lights with a new contour and special design: the star motif in both light units provides a special day and night design.
The chrome strip at the upper edge of the rear lights accentuate the width of the rear.
Details such as the two visible exhaust tailpipes contribute to an unmistakable appearance that is typical of a Mercedes-Benz.

The gracefully sporting, modern appearance of the BMW 5-Series is enhanced at the rear by clear surfacing with minimalist lines.
A new L-shaped light graphic gives the BMW 5-Series its own clear identity. Black edging lends the rear lights a slimmer appearance. The rear lights and brake lights are integrated into a single light fixture.
Trapezoidal tailpipe finishers now standard on all BMW 5-Series models.

The dashboard makes for the digital experience in the interior. If the E-Class is equipped with the optional front passenger screen, the large glass surface of the MBUX Superscreen extends to the central display. Visually detached from this is the driver's display in the driver's field of vision. The models without a passenger display feature a large trim element that extends to the centre. Visually detached, the central display appears to float above the concave surface of this trim element.

The front section of the instrument panel is illuminated by the light strip of the Active Ambient Lighting. This runs in a wide arc from the windscreen, past the A-pillars and into the doors. This creates a generous feeling of space. An apparently free-floating control array in the upper section of the door panels matches the look of the glass surfaces of the screens.

Hallmark features of the BMW 5-Series include an interior which blends contemporary elegance with driver-focused cockpit design - and therefore provides the ideal environment for driving pleasure and comfortable progress over long distances. High-quality materials and precise workmanship bring a modern, premium ambience to the new 5-Series' cabin. The iDrive control and operation system comprises a freestanding Control Display, which now has a 10.25-inch screen diagonal as standard. If the optional BMW Live Cockpit Professional is specified, the monitor's diameter increases to 12.3 inches. Two other factors in the customary long-distance driving qualities of the BMW 5-Series are the generous feeling of space in all five seats and the superbly engineered acoustics.
