The Mercedes E220d has been launched in India at a price of Rs. 57.14 lakh ex showroom Pune. It is the third model in the E-Class portfolio for India after the E200 petrol and the E350d diesel.
Mercedes E220d Engine specifications
Powering the E220d is Mercedes’ new OM654 engine. The 2.0 litre four cylinder diesel motor has replaced the older 2.1 litre motor across the model range internationally. The new engine develops 194 horsepower and 400 Nm of maximum torque. The oil burner complies with Euro VI norms, and while Mercedes was slated to introduce the engine later, the company has worked on the engine to make it run on Bharat Stage IV diesel thus bringing the launch forward. The engine is mated to the 9G-Tronic automatic gearbox.
Mercedes E220d Features
On the exterior, there is not much to distinguish the E220d except the badging and the 17 inch 5 spoke alloy wheels. The story is similar on the inside too. The wood on the dash has a different finish and there is new upholstery as well. Features include touch sensitive buttons on the steering, reclining rear seats with memory function, 12.3 inch screen for the infotainment system, panoramic, sunroof, three zone climate control, 64 colour ambient lighting and a rear view camera. The E220d misses out on features like air suspension, Burmester sound system, memory function for front seats and the 360 degree camera. The car gets 7 airbags standard along with Parl Pilot Assist, ESP, and PRE-SAFE.
