New Delhi: Actor Gauahar Khan, known for her work in films and TV, has recently purchased the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB luxury sedan. The car is priced between Rs 78.5 lakh and Rs 92.50 lakh (ex-showroom). The 2024 model, which launched earlier this year in India, offers a more luxurious interior, a fresh design, and improved safety features compared to the previous model. The E-Class is available in three versions: E 200, E 220d, and E 450. Gauahar Khan has opted for the Polar White color. It’s also worth mentioning that last December, Gauahar and her husband Zaid Darbar bought a pre-facelift Mercedes-Benz GLE.

Both engines are paired with an automatic gearbox as standard. The third option is a 3.0-liter, six-cylinder petrol engine delivering 380 hp and 550 Nm of torque. All three engine options are also equipped with a mild-hybrid system that adds 23 hp and 205 Nm to improve performance.

New-Gen Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB: Design

The sedan is now slightly longer at 5,092mm, with a 15mm increase in the wheelbase, offering more cabin space. Its height is reduced by 2mm, giving it a more streamlined look. The front grille has been updated with a star-pattern design, and the front fascia now features new, slimmer LED headlights.

On the sides, the car has new flush-fitting door handles that pop out when needed. Another highlight is the Maybach-inspired rear quarter glass. The sedan also comes with redesigned 18-inch alloy wheels. The model is available in a new Nautic Blue color, along with four other options: Obsidian Black, High Tech Silver, Graphite Grey, and Polar White.
