Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T

The Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T reaches 60 mph in 7.74 s (100 km/h in 8.17 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.02 s, tripping the lights at 89.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.66 s and the eighth mile in 10.47 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

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 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,018th quickest to 60 mph, and the 790th quickest of the 1380 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.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T reaches 60 mph in 7.74 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,018th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T quarter mile time?
16.02 s at 89.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.47 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.66 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T have?
201 bhp and 1,770 kg, which is 114 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T?
Closest here on pace: SEAT Exeo 1.8 TSI 160 (7.80 s), Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 170 (7.79 s), Toyota Land Cruiser J200 4.6 V8 308 (7.74 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI T in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
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.
