Product Overview
Mercedes-Benz C-class W202 facelift is a compact executive sedan in production from 1996 to 2000. It was available with a range of inline-4, V6, V8, and inline-5 engines that displaced 1.8 to 5.4 liters.
The most interesting engine in the facelift W202 is undoubtedly the M113s in the C43 AMG (M113E43) and C55 AMG (M113E55). Shoe-honed into the W202's mid-size chassis, they were able to deliver thundering performance. The M113 has also proven to be one of the more reliable and durable V8 engines that Mercedes has ever put into its passenger vehicles.
The more underwhelming engines were the indirect-injection OM604 diesels. They were truly underpowered and lethargic, and reminds one of French toy boxes more than a Merc.
A major update with the facelift was the introduction of 722.6 5G-TRONIC 5-speed automatic transmission, which has also proven to be one of the best transmissions from Mercedes ever.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the W202 C-class comes with double-wishbone + multi-link suspension setup. This provides close to the best cornering performance and tunability.
