Mercedes bigwigs pronounce the E-Class as the heart of the Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes introduces its fifth generation of the E-Class and its bigwigs acknowledge the vehicle as the heart of their production line. Although the new E-Class looks very similar to the C-Class and S-Class and can be easily judged as a median sibling of these models. The experts say that the new E-Class is a Pandora box full of technologies and gadgets to make the driver and passengers more comfortable.

The all-new Mercedes-Benz E-Class is a bigger, bolder and wider version of the previous vehicles and built by hardening and temporized steel, uses aluminum in its body structures to keep it lightweight. A radical 4 cylinder engines family has also been introduced. Overall, the new model weighs 220 pounds less than the model it replaces. It is a drivers’ darling car by large.

Driving Experience

Mercedes has finally managed to develop something surprisingly extraordinary while comprehensively reordering the things. The editor’s choice model is 220d because the diesel engines are something out of the blue these days. They roll out comfort with an overflowing torque and supple ride. The new model of the E-Class offers an excellent body control which keeps the driver happy while cruising in the corners. Basically, what the fact is, the diesel engines never loss agility. A smaller diesel engine might be a bit vocal and noisy at the start-up or even at the lower RPMs but when cruising at the motorway, you can’t believe how smooth and agile Mercedes E-Class engines are. Simply said, they are just awesome.

On the available comfort options, steel springs passive damping system is standard on all models, however, dynamic body control system is an option along with the air suspension system. Other options include drive pilot system, which controls the adaptive cruise control system and keeps the steering active to control the vehicle. It is very close to the self-driving experience and is one of the most intelligent systems so far.

Mercedes never uses a smaller amount of engines, similarly, Mercedes ha used a petrol engine. There is the broad range of engines, including diesel, petrol powered engines and plug-in hybrid. Let’s see what engines Mercedes E-Class offers.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Diesel engines

The majority of sales come from diesel engines and it is one of the most profit making portion of the production line. Surprisingly there is more diesel than any other source of income. It is much smoother and quieter, than its predecessor models and also available in two seat configurations as well. The 150hp E200d and E220d models. Selecting the best suit for you would be too tricky and confusing here because the bigger model surprisingly has the same fuel economy as of the smaller engine. Both engines return 72.4 miles per gallon on the motorway cruise. However, the difference starts at the quickest speed from 0 to 62 miles per hour and the bigger is looser here. Smaller engine does zero to 62 miles per hour in 07.3 seconds. However, the bigger and the older engine does the same distance in 8.3 seconds. The 220d models produce 400 nm of torque and on the other hand, 360nm engines crank 360nm of torque.

Although the car’s top speed is 150mph and it might seem something extraordinary beyond the limits of the free way’s speed. While cruising on the autobahn motorway, at 150 miles per hour, it still has the ability to overtake vehicles ahead.

Diesel engines use a different type of combustion cycles and they burn fuel with compression system. They use highly precise equipment to inject fuel into the combustion chambers but sometimes they face problems and result could be a failed engine. You can repair your engine with parts from a used engine or otherwise, you can a reconditioned engine from any well-known engine suppliers in the UK.
