S 350 BlueTEC now with ECO start/stop function as standard
Stuttgart – With immediate effect, Mercedes-Benz is combining the V6 diesel engine in the S 350 BlueTEC with an ECO start/stop function. As a result, the fuel consumption of the luxury class saloon has been brought down to 6.2 litres per 100 kilometres (NEDC combined).
