If you are looking to carry cargo or bike racks on a 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-350 the best option is going to be to install a roof rack because the only hitches available are for a '14 E-350 are for a sedan or wagon. The good news is that you can install a roof rack whether or not you have the Panorama Roof as it will attach to fixed mounting points on your Mercedes.

I highly recommend going with a roof rack option from Yakima because it will give your 2014 Mercedes E-350 coupe a roof rack with a distinguished look which is also very quiet and effective. This roof rack is made up of:

- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR
- Landing Pad 22 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers # Y00248 (Quantity of 2)

The JetStream crossbars are extremely functional and durable due to their anodized aluminum construction, which provides them with optimal strength and a 165 lb capacity. These crossbars have T-slots which allow you to use channel-mounted accessories if you like; the T-slots have rubber "SmartFill" strips in them which means you are not going to have to cut them to mount accessories, you only need to push the strips in to use the T-slots.

This roof rack will also look great on your '14 Mercedes due to the aerodynamic shape of the JetStream crossbars. The aero shape of these bars, along with their built-in WindRidges, is also what ensures that this roof rack minimizes the wind noise that other types of crossbars can create.

I do recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) locks # Y07204 to lock the rack and help protect your investment; I have added links to video reviews of the roof rack and locks for you to take a look at as well.
