The E-Class with its new-generation 4-cylinder engines is particularly efficient. The development theme – higher performance and lower consumption – has been continued undeterred and, thanks to the BlueEFFICIENCY concept, it has been possible to reduce fuel consumption by more than 20 per cent compared with the previous models.

For even greater economic efficiency, the E-Class comes with a new generation of 4-cylinder engine – which meets the EU 5 emissions standard. The E 250 CGI BlueEFFICIENCY 1.8-litre engine not only offers impressive figures for consumption and emissions – it also delivers top values for torque, output and noise level. The E 250 CGI BlueEFFICIENCY delivers 204 hp at a maximum torque of 300 Nm. Consumption was reduced by over 20 percent compared to its predecessor.

Concentrated power is packed into the 6-cylinder engines of the E 300 and E 350 as well as the 8-cylinder engine of E 500. All of these engines meet the EU 5 emissions standard, and they can deliver 231 hp, 272 hp and 388 hp, respectively. The E 500 accelerates within 5.2 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h.

(E 500: fuel consumption combined: 10.9–11.2 l/100 km, CO2 emissions combined: 256–261 g/km)[1]
