The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E250 BlueTEC has been EPA-estimated to get 28 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway.
The E250 BlueTEC is also the German automaker’s first diesel E-Class model to offer 4MATIC all-wheel drive, which does cut fuel efficiency to 27 mpg in the city and 42 mpg on the highway. Regardless, the E250 BlueTEC achieves best-in-class fuel efficiency for a midsize luxury sedan and for the entire industry in the same size range.
