Prestige Luxury

Mercedes-Benz E Class E550 4D Sedan

Prestige comes with a price, but by keeping costs to a minimum, the price might just be affordable. With the lowest lifecycle costs in each of the twelve scenarios measured, the Mercedes-Benz E550 earns Vincentric’s Best Fleet Value in America award for the second straight year. Because of the high acquisition costs in this segment, a keen understanding of lifecycle costing is critical if a prestige vehicle is appropriate for your business.
