Comfort

Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the MINI MINI-Convertible, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class may be a little roomier and more comfortable for the driver and front seat passengers.
Convenience
With the Mercedes-Benz E-Class you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the MINI MINI-Convertible, due to its larger tank size and better fuel economy.
