Mercedes E-Class Engines and Transmissions

Mercedes E-Class engine choices here range from supercharged and naturally aspirated petrol units to diesels and gas-fuelled cars. The E200 Kompressor 1.8 AT runs on LPG with an automatic and rear-wheel drive, the E240 2.6 MT combines a manual with all-wheel drive, and the E200CDI 2.2 MT is a rear-driven diesel suited to high mileage.
