The 2016 Mercedes-Benz E Class made a big splash at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show and now we have some information regarding its pricing.

While nothing is official yet, Mercedes-Benz Passion Blog reports the all-new premium sedan will start from $49,436 (€45,303) for the E 200 version with a 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol engine. Interestingly, this price is for a model equipped with a 9G-TRONIC automatic gearbox and we still don't have information whether a 6-speed manual will be offered.

Until now, the base E 200 was available at $46,294 (€42,423) but featured a 6-speed manual gearbox. A quick comparison shows that analogous E 200 with automatic now costs $351 (€322) more than before.

On the diesel side, the E 220d with the 9G-TRONIC will wear a starting price of $51,424 (€47,124), while in June it will be joined by the E 350d that will be available at $60,675 (€55,602).

The first Mercedes-AMG version with 402 horsepower is expected to arrive in June and will wear the E 43 AMG moniker. A CNG version is not planned at this point.
