Get the Best Priced Mercedes E350 Parts

The fourth generation of the Mercedes-Benz E-class range of luxury cars is represented by the Mercedes-Benz W212 and S212 series. The W212 E-class saloon was launched in 2009 for the 2010 model year. The estate version was the S212, also launched in 2009. Initial models of the S212 included, among others, the E350 CDI Blue Efficiency and the E350 CGI Blue Efficiency, both running on a V6 engine. Sales in Europe kicked off in August 2009 and in June 2010 (for model year 2011) for the US market.

The Mercedes E350 CGI Blue Efficiency came equipped with a package of eco measures - tires with reduced rolling resistance, steering rack power and of course the Clever aero with a drag factor of 0.24 making the car extremely "slippery". All these hold true for the Mercedes E350 CDI Blue Efficiency as well. The difference lied in the engine type; the CGI, a petrol variant, ran on a 292bhp 3.5 L V6 M 272 DE 35, generating a power of 215 kW and torque worth 269 lb-ft, while the CDI was a diesel model and had a 231bhp 3.0 L OM 642 DE 30 turbodiesel engine, cranking up 170 kW power and torque of 400 lb-ft.. Barring a slight wind rush around the exterior mirrors and the A-pillars, the Mercedes E350 CDI Blue Efficiency was by and large a silent vehicle.

The CGI variant made way for the Mercedes E350 Blue Efficiency in 2012. It was made available with a 3.5 L V6 M 276 DE 35 engine, which could produce a power of 225 kW. Its acceleration, therefore, was more than both the CGI and the CDI - it could reach 100 kmph in 6.3 seconds while the CGI as well as CDI clocked 6.8 seconds. The E350 Blue Tec model, on the other hand, could boast of the engine equipped with an advanced NOx reducing technology - one that was based on a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system which reduced the amounts of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons released from the exhaust. Its power was not as high as the other models and was pegged was 155 kW. It was also a good one second slower in terms of acceleration than the Mercedes E350 CDI Blue Efficiency - it would consume 7.8 seconds to do 0 to 100 kmph.
