Few people remember that the nameplate with the letter E, which later became the designation of a whole class of cars, and not only the Mercedes-Benz concern, but also the entire European automobile industry, appeared for the first time in the spring of 1972 on a model with a body index of 114. It testified that henceforth, under the hood of the most powerful modification of the midsize sedan of the brand, an engine with fuel injection (Einspritz) appeared. The motor itself was a gift from the gentleman's shoulder from the Mercedes-Benz 280 SE.
Almost forty years have passed, and the top engines still fall under the hood of the E-class from an older brother. This time, the new generation of BlueDIRECT engines, officially unveiled last spring (SP 2010, No. 7). Modernization has been embodied in improving combustion efficiency, increasing efficiency and environmental friendliness. Now all E-class gasoline engines are equipped with direct injection and a start / stop system.

Mercedes-Benz E 500: V8 biturbo, 4.7 L, 408 HP and 600 Nm Mercedes-Benz E 500: V8 biturbo, 4.7 L, 408 HP and 600 Nm
The new “turbo eight” of the flagship E 500 model growls in a low voice, whistling soberly with a turbine at full throttle. The entire process of traction control - clearly measured acceleration injections exactly at the dosages at which the driver wishes. This engine makes it possible to fully feel that Mercedes does not have excess power: the chassis allows much more. However, in fact, it’s not even the dynamics that are striking, but the expense: with a leisurely ride, the 400-horsepower express easily fits into 8.5 l / 100 km.

At the service of excellent indicators of the new G8: direct injection of the third generation, piezo injectors and two turbochargers for each of the rows. Under the hood, she is not as spacious as in the S-class. Therefore, in order to reduce the heat load of the engine, the maximum torque was cut off by 100 Nm, but here it is available in a wider range, and the herd of Swabian horses was reduced by 28 horses, as evidenced by the plateau on the power curve from 5000 to 5750 rpm.

Mercedes Benz E 350: V6, 3.5 L, 306 HP and 370 Nm Mercedes Benz E 350: V6, 3.5 L, 306 HP and 370 Nm
The E 350 model is the most anticipated among Russian E-class fans. Thanks to the optimal combination of characteristics, it rightfully accounts for the lion's share of sales. The pleasant baritone and decent dynamics of the six emphasize the status and do not burden with frequent refueling: you can cover a couple of hundreds of kilometers in an autobahn with a moderate appetite of 13 l / 100 km, and if you don’t rush, then the flow will completely approach the “diesel” values of 7– 8 l / 100 km.

Six new generation flaunts a layered injection. It is balanced not only by vibration, but also by characteristics. Mercedes promise that in the near future there will be a modification of this engine with a turbocharger to fill the intermediate step to the E 500.

Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI: in-line four turbocharged, 2.1 L, 204 hp and 500 Nm Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI: in-line four turbocharged, 2.1 L, 204 hp and 500 Nm
The diesel E 250 CDI is the most environmentally friendly car in the entire E-Class line: CO emissions are 130–134 g / km. It is also the most economical in the class - 4.9–5.3 l / 100 km. This is the initial heavy fuel engine for Russians. The engine starts: a dense set of speed from peppy bottoms continues without the loss of acceleration characteristic of diesels until the cutoff. It is a pity that it is noisy.

The in-line diesel four with a volume of 2.1 liters with piezo injectors gives out in the CDI version 250 five hundred thousand newtons of the moment, closely approaching the top sixes in this indicator. However, this did not prevent her from becoming a liter more economical than her predecessor.

The E-class motor line is one of the richest, perhaps not only in the class, but also in the overall standings. Soon it will be replenished with the first in the history of the Daimler concern E 300 BlueTEC Hybrid diesel hybrid equipped with a 15-kilowatt electric motor. The total power of the power plant - 224 hp, maximum torque - 600 Nm. According to the manufacturer, the fuel consumption in the combined cycle will not exceed 4.4 l / 100 km, and emissions - СО2 -116 g / km. We are waiting for a response from competitors.
