Which trim is worth it

Premium Package

Worth it

The Premium Package includes enhanced features such as upgraded audio, advanced driver assistance systems, and more luxurious interior materials. These additions significantly enhance the driving experience and comfort, making it a worthwhile investment.

AMG Line

Probably skip

While the AMG Line offers sporty styling and performance tweaks, the base model already provides ample luxury and performance for most drivers. Unless you prioritize sporty aesthetics, this upgrade may not be necessary.
