What is miles per pound?
Fuel economy
A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test.
Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 26 - 68 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class W212 running costs are fairly high, although the base models are well equipped and the four-cylinder petrol and diesels are affordable to run. Servicing isn’t cheap.
Mercedes-Benz E-Class emissions are pretty low considering the size of car we’re dealing with. Four cylinder diesels offer low emissions for such a large car and most E-Class saloons sold were these models.
