Powertrain Options and Availability
All midsize Mercedes models were rear-wheel drive with a 4-speed automatic transmission, but engine choices through the years have been complicated. Most cars had inline 6-cylinder gasoline engines, of 2.6-, 2.8-, 3.0- or 3.2-liter displacement. Diesels have been available in two sizes, and two V8 models have been offered.
