Mercedes W188 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1951–1958)

Mercedes W188 Engines and Transmissions

Every Mercedes W188 engine is gasoline-powered, tuned for smooth, flexible pulling rather than sheer revs, so the car gathers speed quietly and cruises without fuss. The drivetrain sends power rearward through a manual transmission, giving the relaxed, long-legged character expected of a touring car of this class.
