2 Answers
Mercedes-Benz CLS300 uses the engine model 264-920, a 2.0T four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 258 horsepower/6100rpm and a peak torque of 370 Nm at 1800-4000rpm. Relevant information about automotive engines is as follows: 1. Introduction: The automotive engine is the device that provides power to the car, serving as the heart of the vehicle, determining its power, fuel economy, stability, and environmental performance. Common gasoline and diesel engines are both types of reciprocating piston internal combustion engines. 2. Classification: Based on different power sources, automotive engines can be categorized into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid types, among others.
I've driven quite a few Mercedes-Benz cars, and the 2012 CLS300 is indeed a classic. Its engine is from the M276 series, specifically the M276.920 model - a 3.5L V6 naturally aspirated engine. This engine has been used in E-Class and CLS models since around 2010, delivering 252 horsepower and 340 N·m of torque. It runs smoothly and quietly with quick response, free from turbo lag. I remember Mercedes designed it for higher efficiency with a high compression ratio, averaging 9-11L per 100km in fuel consumption. It's reliable for both daily commutes and highway driving. Common issues usually involve aging spark plugs or ignition coils, so I recommend checking them every 60,000 km. If you experience cold start difficulties, don't rush to engine repairs - first check the battery or wiring connections. The engine itself is highly durable and can easily last hundreds of thousands of kilometers. Using quality engine oil and regularly changing filters will help maintain its condition and extend its lifespan.
