Would be nice but I don't see the E class being the right one to market a downsized engine... They are claiming 39mpg highway I think the E class is a little heavy to get a consistent 39 unless it is running between 45 and 50 mph on a level grade with a tail wind....

Interesting that they don't appear to sending over the C-class diesels...

It doesn't look like it will be a slouch, at least not if this quote is true...

Quote:
This model is powered by a 2.2-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel which produces 204 bhp and 369 lb.-ft. of torque, the latter reaching its peak between 1600 and 1800 rpm.
