Mercedes CLS CLS350BlueTEC 3.0 AT Specs — Second Generation Restyling
The Mercedes CLS CLS350BlueTEC 3.0 AT, in its second-generation restyled form, is a useful starting point for explaining how a car turns a driver's request into movement.

The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry
245 km/h
Engine type
Diesel
Transmission
Automatic
Type of boost?
A turbocharger or supercharger compresses the air entering the engine so a smaller engine can produce more power. Naturally aspirated engines draw air without a compressor. Glossary entry
Turbo
Type of drive?
Which wheels receive power: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive can send power to every wheel for extra traction. Glossary entry
AWD
Bore and stroke?
The diameter of a cylinder (bore) and the distance the piston travels inside it (stroke). Together they determine the displacement of the engine. Glossary entry
92.9 × 86 mm
Engine capacity?
The total volume swept by all pistons inside the cylinders, usually stated in cubic centimetres or litres. Larger displacement often means more power but higher consumption. Glossary entry
2987 cm³
Engine location
Front, longitudinal
Number of gears?
How many fixed forward ratios a gearbox offers. More gears can improve economy and refinement; continuously variable transmissions have no fixed steps. Glossary entry
7
Maximum power?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
258 hp
Maximum power, kw?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
190 kW
Compression ratio?
The ratio between the largest and smallest volume of a cylinder as the piston moves. Higher ratios improve efficiency but may require higher-octane fuel. Glossary entry
15.5

Acceleration to 100?
The time a vehicle needs to reach 100 km/h from a standstill, a common shorthand for overall performance. Glossary entry
6.7 s

Valves per cylinder?
The number of intake and exhaust valves in each cylinder. Four valves per cylinder is common and helps the engine breathe at higher speeds. Glossary entry

Engine and Transmission
Engine speed is simply how fast the crankshaft turns; load is how much of the available torque is being asked for at that speed. An automatic transmission can answer a request for acceleration by changing ratio, raising engine speed so the same effort is delivered at lower load.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
A tyre has a finite grip budget shared between cornering and driving effort. In a turn, much of it is already spent holding the car on its line, so adding throttle asks the driven tyres to produce traction from what little remains.
Body and Practicality
A fastback's tailgate lifts the rear glass with it, so the opening is tall and the reach inward is long. An item may pass through easily yet still sit beyond comfortable arm's length once pushed to the far end.
