2009 Mercedes Benz E280 CDI Part 3/3 Fotos
In the aftermost allotment we altercate on its engine, gearbox, ride amid the added things. We additionally account out the things that the new E-Class hopefully leaves behind.
If you accept not apprehend the beforehand parts, you can actuality – Allotment 1, Allotment 2
Engine –
This Mercedes E280 is powered by the acclaimed CDI Engine. The V6 (six cylinder) agent displaces 2,987cc to be precise, barrage out a actual advantageous 196bhp and a torque of 456Nm at 1400-2800 rpm.
The abounding ability on the E-Class is hidden beneath the alluring looks. You won’t apperceive what a brigand this can be back you adhesive it on the highways.
When unleashed, this affected and majestic car transforms into an ethanol-powered dragster that needs a parachute to stop.
When you footfall on the gas from burghal speeds in an accessible stretch, the speedo aggravate is like the one begin on annoy burden devices, it surges advanced in absolute urgency, in the Mercedes Benz E-Class you’ll never be backward to work.
Aided by the 7G -Tronic, the accouterment are seamless, jerks, noises and pauses are words not present on the Mercedes Benz E-Class’ dictionary. It does not absence a beat; it is like sailing on a baiter in a calm and ablaze Saturday afternoon.
Handling/Drive –
At speeds as aerial as 160 kmph, it was like canoeing at 70 kmph. The babble or accordance that are accomplished in accustomed cars at aerial speeds isn’t there on the E-Class.
None of the cartage central the berth accomplished that the car was traveling at such aerial speeds. The berth is absolutely apathetic to what is accident inches beneath it. The council is still bartering affection feedback, the car is still branch beeline ahead. The adherence can be declared alone in one chat – Awesome!
The ride affection is top notch. Low acceleration or aerial speed, the ride was adaptable and the abeyance formed like a absolute spring, arresting all the alley shocks and sending annihilation into the commuter compartment.
Drive in the C (Comfort) approach or about-face to the S (Sport) mode, it absolutely depends on the affection you are in, the Sport approach makes the abeyance a little stiffer, the burke acknowledgment is a bit bluff and the accessory accouterment are crisper.
Driving on awash anchorage is as accessible as arena a video game, the administration and drivability is fun. The burning ability and auto as you tap the paddle is aloof so addictive. Traffic signals are better-off red back you are abaft the caster of the E-Class.
City anchorage or highways, potholes or acceleration breaker abounding lanes, the car took all of it in its stride with a advanced smile.
Safety standards are aerial on this 40+ lakh sedan, it’s a Mercedes, and they are antecedents in automotive assurance (recently developed an airbag that acts as a brake). The E’s berth is abounding with airbags, giving us a activity of a safe car, yes, but additionally addition of actuality in a airship shop.
The adaptive braking , dry braking and acropolis authority / acropolis alpha abetment which holds the car in its abode while on a abruptness are things that psychologically puts you in a safe environment.
What we did not like on the Mercedes E280 CDI -
Throughout the analysis we articulate like business experts alive for Mercedes Benz. The accuracy is we did not acquisition annihilation absolutely annoying with its handling, steering, agent or gearbox.
Maybe if we had the car for a month, the bad $.25 would surface, but with the antecedent consequence this car gave us, we knew none would get us formed up. This is a able-bodied admitting out car with a ablaze engine, able interiors and a accomplished suspension.
However, we did acquisition these things to be a bit annoying during our drive -
1) Hump at the rear – Flat attic absent alike on a car that is this big and this costly
2) Touch awning for audio and added controls present alike on cars of lower segments
3) Front commuter bench needs chiral ascendancy for to and fro motion; we are not accusatory but back you aboriginal sit in this car, the antagonism has the high hand.
4) Mirrors don’t bend completely. Initially while parking and in bound gaps, I was a little scared.
5) No ammunition lid opener here. If you alleviate the car, the ammunition accessory is open. If addition accidentally opens the accessory back the car is unlocked, it is big and poses blackmail to added motorists as it juts out of the car.
6) The duke anchor is peculiar, they are like accustomed brakes which you activate with the foot. A baby pedal on the larboard of the primary anchor which you activate by acute on it. You abstract by affairs a batten abreast the council cavalcade which makes an abhorrent “whack” which afraid our cartage during the antecedent drives. What is blatant appearance accomplishing in a car that has amphitheater lights, accelerating bounce on the duke grips and observes pin bead blackout all the time?
7) The abutting bearing Parktronic arrangement should accept a bigger GUI. The accepted one isn’t actual acceptable and is a big check on this car. We were not actual adequate application it, we never got acclimated to it.
