Transmission options include a 9G-Tronic gearbox that can sprint the sedan from 0 – 100kmph in 5.9 seconds. .

The interior has been updated with dual touchpad’s, a new steering wheel and a 10.25 inch touchscreen infotainment system. Mercedes Benz is also offering Active park assist on the AMG variant.
