Does the Mercedes-Benz E300L come with a toolbox?

The Mercedes-Benz E300L does not come with a toolbox. If you plan on long-distance travel, you may consider purchasing one and equipping it in the trunk. Introduction to Toolbox: Toolbox, as the name suggests, is a container used for storing tools and various household items, widely applicable for repairs and other purposes. It is categorized into portable and fixed types. The portable toolbox is also known as a tool cart. Automotive Toolbox: An automotive toolbox refers to a set of tools that assist car owners in handling breakdowns or emergencies. It generally includes items such as an emergency hammer, first aid kit, large-capacity fire extinguisher, foldable reflective warning sign, car power inverter, jumper cables, automotive fuses, air pump, walkie-talkie, waterproof tape, insulating tape, puncture repair kit, tow rope, etc.

The Mercedes-Benz E300L indeed comes with a standard emergency toolkit in the trunk, typically located in a small hidden compartment under the floor mat as a black bag. It contains basic essentials: a small wrench, screwdriver, tow hook, tire-changing tools, along with a reflective warning triangle and safety vest. Having driven this model for over three years, I rarely used it until that highway tire blowout—where it saved me considerable hassle by enabling a quick tire change. While not a professional-grade set, it handles simple roadside issues adequately. Upon purchase, it’s wise to verify its completeness during delivery as some versions may vary slightly. The maintenance manual briefly mentions this toolkit; though minimal in content, it proves crucial in emergencies. I recommend checking the tools biannually to prevent rust or damage from compromising functionality. Overall, Mercedes’ thoughtful inclusion of this standard kit adds a layer of reassurance for drivers.

From my experience, the Mercedes-Benz E300L definitely has a tool kit located on the right side of the trunk or in the spare tire area, designed as a compact bag. It includes common wrench sets, towing connection tools, and some basic first-aid supplies. The tool kit isn't meant for major repairs but rather for handling minor emergencies, such as battery jump-starts or tire issues. I've used it a few times while driving, and it's quite handy. However, although the tools are of good quality, they may accumulate dust or become loose if unused for a long time, so I recommend cleaning them during each car wash. Mercedes after-sales service confirms this is a standard feature, with slight variations in contents across different model years—missing a few items is normal. If it's not there, check the corners of the trunk or ask a repair shop; it's easy to replace. All in all, it's a practical little feature—don't underestimate it.

Driving a Mercedes-Benz E300L on the road, the toolkit is essential and located in the area under the trunk floor. Typical contents include a warning triangle, small tools, and a first aid kit. It's designed for sudden issues, like making tire changes easier and safer; I used mine once after a storm, and the tools were quite sturdy. If you can't find it, check the user manual to confirm its location; most models come with it, but if it's missing occasionally, it's recommended to visit the dealership to complete the set. Though small, the toolkit is highly valuable, especially for emergencies during night driving.
