2015 things:
- AMG package is styling + 19" wheels
- Bixenon listed
- Power pass seat
- A bit higher mileage

2016 things:
- Factory Carplay (first year for Mercedes)
- Keyless go
- Halogen headlights standard? Or perhaps bi-xenon standard so no need to list option? A brochure would help.
- Standard 18s. Better ride.
- A bit lower mileage

Both had factory runflats which you would want to ditch next time around.

Brochures attached.

Bixenon was not standard in 2016 so it probably has halogen. Lame.
Keyless go was part of the Premium package in 2016 but I think it would appear as an option code so the car seems to be a base model with a few a la carte options.

A 40k mile 2019 is only $21k, which I guess is a big price increase, but 90k fewer miles:

For future reference, here are the bi-xenon headlights:

And the poverty spec base headlights:

The two most obvious differences I see are 1) multi-element DRL eyebrows on the bi-xenons and 2) projectors on the bi-xenons vs what looks like a cheap parabolic reflector on the base ones.
