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.
