Low-speed ride
Engine and Performance
The E-Class ‘E200’ petrol we have in this review uses a 194bhp/320Nm 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that powers the rear wheels through a nine-speeder auto transmission. Like most petrols, this one’s just as refined. But on account of the abundance of power at hand, it’s certainly engaging to drive. The fact that it’s so potent anywhere in power-band, has the 9G-Tronic gearbox to thank for, partially.
Barring of course the mild lag in kick-down situations, this gearbox smartly makes use of its nine gears to serve just the right amount of oomph when need be. This comes especially handy while pulling off the odd quick-overtake. Plus, with so much torque spread across the revs, we noticed that it cruises easily at triple digits at low RPMs; making mile-munching an effortless affair.
