Mercedes-Benz S320 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY - Best New Car
Thursday, October 2nd, 2008Mercedes-Benz S 320 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY - Best New Car : New to the car is the standstill decoupling feature, which interrupts the power flow to the transmission as soon as the vehicle draws to a stop with the engine running, in much the same way as the clutch on a manual transmission. This eliminates the converter’s hydrodynamic resistance, lessening the load on the engine and lowering fuel consumption.
The Mercedes-Benz S320 CDI BlueEfficiency rides as standard on 17-inch light-alloy wheels shod with reduced rolling resistance tyres, featuring a special carcass construction.

The price for the S 320 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY in Germany is unchanged at €70,864.50 (incl. VAT). The long-wheelbase version costs €78,718.50 (incl. VAT).
