Longer journeys ask different questions of a car than short errands. For the Mercedes E-Class E220CDI 2.2 MT Classic, the everyday themes below concern planning ahead and keeping occupants settled.
2 generation, restyling · Sedan
Generation photo. Individual trim appearance may differ.
The highest speed a vehicle can sustain under manufacturer test conditions. Some cars are electronically limited below their mechanical potential. Glossary entry
212 km/h
Engine type
Diesel
Transmission
Manual
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
RWD
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
88 × 88.3 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
2148 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
6
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
143 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
105 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

Comfort and Convenience
Some travellers want fresh air moving through the cabin, while others prefer the windows shut and the flow turned low. Sensitivity to draughts and to outside noise varies, so preferences rarely match exactly.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Controls are easiest to learn when the car is stationary and unhurried. Knowing where the demister, indicators and interior lighting sit means a driver spends less attention hunting for them mid-journey.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Music or radio for a long stretch is worth arranging in advance, whether that means stored files, a chosen station or an offline playlist. Charging and calling remain separate matters from what is playing.
