Discover the broad range of engines of the current E-Class generation: dynamic as always, at the same time economical in terms of consumption and low on emissions as never before.

For even greater economic efficiency, the E-Class comes with a choice of 4-cylinder engines – either the diesel unit in the E 200 CDI and the E 220 CDI, or the petrol unit in the E 200 KOMPRESSOR and the E 200 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY model with petrol-natural gas drive.

Experience the comfort of a 6-cylinder engine with the E 280 CDI, the E 300 BlueTEC and E 320 CDI diesel engines. A latest-generation Common Rail direct injection system ensures fuel economy, environmental compatibility and refinement. The trend-setting V6 diesel engine in the E 300 BlueTEC already today reaches emission levels which fall below the limits of tomorrow's Euro standards.

The E 230, E 280, E 350 and E 350 CGI are also equipped with V6 petrol engines. Thanks to variable camshaft adjustment for both intake and outlet valves, a sophisticated mixture formation system and variable intake manifold, all the petrol engines set high standards in the combination of comfort, high power output and low fuel consumption. The petrol engine fitted in the E 350 CGI features a direct injection system with piezoelectric injectors, which ensure a virtually complete combustion, with low pollutant emissions.

And to ensure that driving enjoyment remains untarnished even when road conditions are bad, the E 280 CDI, E 320 CDI, E 280 and E 350 are also available with 4MATIC all-wheel drive.

The top-of-the-range E-Class models are driven by powerful V8 engines, a case in point being the E 420 CDI which features a consistently lightweight design and a new biturbo system for an unrivalled degree of diesel driving enjoyment. Meanwhile, the 8-cylinder petrol engine at the heart of the E 500 produces an extremely assured driving feel. Whatever the situation on the road, the high torque means that there is always plenty of power in reserve. Then there is the sound of harnessed power that is unique to eight-cylinder engines. To add to all this, the E 500 is also available with 4MATIC all-wheel drive.

A naturally aspirated V8 petrol engine also drives the most powerful of all the E-Class models. The 6.3-litre AMG V8 high-performance powerplant delivers scintillating, sports car-like performance. Rarely has it been possible to enjoy motor-racing technology in such a relaxed manner.
