The revolutionary 4-cylinder unit in the E250 CGI with a displacement of 1.8 litres, direct injection, variable valve timing and turbocharging is optimised to deliver outstanding torque and power right from low rpm ranges in order to offer flexibility and reserves of power in all driving situations, not to mention its low fuel consumption and emissions. Two balancer shafts ensure minimal engine vibration at every engine speed.
The 6-cylinder powerplant in the E 300 delivers an inimitable combination of smoothness and power for refined performance. A sophisticated technology package is the secret behind the 6-cylinder V-engine. All four camshafts, for example, feature variable adjustment across the entire engine speed range – ensuring that high torque and power reserves are available to call on. Optimized fuel combustion also results in lower consumption, while a balancer shaft ensures smooth operation.
