Mercedes-Benz W213 E-Class range is now CKD, up to RM47k off, from RM349k!



Less than a year since its debut in Malaysia, the Mercedes-Benz W213 E-Class is finally available as a locally assembled model. As such, prices have gone down by as much as RM47,000 for the base E 200 Avantgarde!

The E 250 Avantgarde and E 250 Exclusive variants also receive a massive chop in price of about RM42,000. All three variants are identically specced as their fully imported counterparts. This means Mercedes-Benz Malaysia’s production plant in Pekan is now assembling all three of their newest core products, the W205 C-Class, W213 E-Class and W222 S-Class.
