Yes previous MB engines use no oil, but the Modular motors can and some do burn oil.
It depends mostly on how the engine was broken in. Sticking
rings can be a small issue, but those cars usually burn 1l in 500km.
I wouldn't give 1qt in 2500mi the slightest worry.

So by this count, I could have used 3.6L in the 4500 Km since the last oil change?
That seems like a lot.
