There will be five newly developed and modified engines available with the new E-Class Coupe that offer more power, lower fuel consumption and lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions than their predecessors.
There are four-, six- and eight-cylinder diesel and petrol power plants with outputs that range from 150kW/204hp to 285kW/388hp.
Let’s take a look at what’s available:

The E250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY coupe has an output of 150kW, a torque of 500Nm and produces around 36 per cent more power than the outgoing model. It also consumes around 17 per cent less fuel at 46mpg with emissions at 135g/km.
