About the E 250 CDI T

The 2009 Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T is a rear-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,770 kg with 201 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 114 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.66 s. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,572nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 230th quickest of the 255 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 89.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-02. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
