The Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 reaches 60 mph in 7.16 s (100 km/h in 8.04 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.77 s, tripping the lights at 90.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.68 s and the eighth mile in 10.30 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and

About the E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179
The 1986 Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated estate of 1,530 kg with 177 bhp, which works out at 116 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 116 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.68 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,946th quickest to 60 mph, and the 644th quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 90.1 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions
What is the Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 reaches 60 mph in 7.16 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,946th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 quarter mile time?
15.77 s at 90.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.30 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.68 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 have?
177 bhp and 1,530 kg, which is 116 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 212 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179?
Closest here on pace: BMW 3 Series Touring (E46) 330d 184 (7.12 s), Audi A4 Avant 2.0 TDI ultra 190 Auto (7.13 s), BMW 3 Series Touring 330d 184 (7.12 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-Benz E-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 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-Class T-Modell (S124) 300 E 179 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
