Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Toyota Crown than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, due to its greater head- and legroom. Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, drivers may find the Toyota Crown a little roomier and somewhat more comfortable.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class as you will with the Toyota Crown, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Mercedes-Benz E-Class will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Toyota Crown, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is a little wider than the Toyota Crown, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Toyota Crown.

Handling
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has about the same turning radius as the Toyota Crown, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is somewhat more powerful than the Toyota Crown.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Toyota Crown.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the Toyota Crown.
