Mercedes W110 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1961–1965) — First Generation
For a Mercedes W110 sedan you intend to use regularly, mechanical condition and maintenance history deserve close attention. Its period character is part of the appeal, but engine choice also matters in everyday traffic.
Mercedes W110 engine options include the gasoline 1.9 MT and diesel 2.0 MT, both with a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. The gasoline version offers a livelier response, while the diesel suits a gentler pace. In either, leave room for overtaking and choose your gear before a climb.
