Mercedes Benz E Class Sedan - Generation 2.1-2 (1995-2002)

MERCEDES BENZ E CLASS SEDAN (1995-2002)

While the previous E Class was a continuation of the W124 (the facelift model), this one is all new from the ground up. Until its 2000 update, it has a 2.3 4-cylinder as a standard engine. Later releases get V6 engines and a diesel motor.
