How many cylinders does the Mercedes-Benz E300 engine have?
2 Answers
The currently available E300 is equipped with a four-cylinder 2.0T high-power version engine model; the older models (pre-2014) of the E300 were equipped with a V-type six-cylinder 3.0L naturally aspirated engine. Power Introduction: The Mercedes-Benz E-Class offers optional high and low-power 2.0T engines and a 3.0T engine. The low-power 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 135kW, maximum horsepower of 184PS, and peak torque of 300N-m; the high-power 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 180kW, maximum horsepower of 245PS, and peak torque of 370N-m; the 3.0TV6 engine has a maximum power of 200kW, maximum horsepower of 272PS, and peak torque of 400N-m, all matched with a 9AT transmission, offering relatively high fuel economy. Mercedes-Benz E300: The Mercedes-Benz E300L is a model exclusively designed for the Chinese market. Its extended wheelbase is entirely to meet the needs of domestic users, and its domestic production will offer a more competitive price than the imported version. The wheelbase of the new generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class will be extended by 14cm. Overseas, the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class, with a length of 4868mm, has a wheelbase of 2874mm (already 20mm more than the previous generation), and if extended by 14cm, it will reach 3014mm.
As someone who has long studied Mercedes-Benz models, I can say with certainty that the current E300 is equipped with a four-cylinder engine. The latest Mercedes-Benz E300 now uses the M254-coded 2.0T inline-four engine, but don't underestimate this four-cylinder—it's full of surprises. The most distinctive feature of this powertrain is its 48V mild hybrid technology, where the BSG motor makes the start-stop function as quiet as a cat during ignition. In real-world driving, the power delivery is remarkably robust, with a maximum output of 258 horsepower, making city overtaking effortless. However, if you're looking at older models, pre-2017 E300s did indeed come with a V6 engine, so be sure to pay attention to the model year.
