How many cylinders does the Mercedes-Benz S320 engine have?

[DeLogan]

It is a six-cylinder engine. V6 engine: V6 refers to the number of engine cylinders and their arrangement. V6 indicates a six-cylinder engine with a V-shaped cylinder layout. This arrangement ensures that each cylinder works in harmony, resulting in minimal noise and smooth operation. V-shaped engines are compact in length and height, making them easy to install. Generally, V-shaped engines are considered high-end, and the V6 engine represents the cutting-edge technology of the fourth-generation VQ engine, typically found in mid-to-high-end sedans. V-angle: For a V6 engine, the optimal V-angle is 60 degrees, which minimizes engine size and vibration. Although the dynamic balance of a 60-degree V6 engine is not as good as that of an inline six-cylinder or horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine, modern technology has improved engine mounting systems to reduce vibration. Unlike other angles, a 60-degree V6 engine does not require a balance shaft.
