Mercedes W105 Engines and Transmissions

The Mercedes W105 engine range centred on a gasoline unit of roughly two litres and a bit, exemplified by the 2.2 AT sedan with automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Power reaches the back axle, so the powertrain favours relaxed cruising and smooth response over outright acceleration.
