Geneva Motor Show: pictures of the Mercedes-Benz Vision C 220 BLUETEC concept

Filed under: Diesel, Mercedes Benz, Geneva Motor Show



We already know a lot about the Vision C 220 BlueTec that Mercedes-Benz brought to the Geneva Motor Show. And, while we also had the two official pictures (click on thumbnails below), for a really good look at the styling and features of this production preview showcar, we can now offer up Autoblog's high-resolution gallery.

The BlueTec system in the Vision C 220 means the car is ready to meet the EURO 6 emission standard, which doesn't kick in in Europe until 2015. With an output of 125 kW (170 hp) and a peak torque of 400 Nm, the Vision C 220 BlueTec consumes just 5.5 liters of diesel per hundred kilometers (about 43 mpg in the U.S.).

Mercedes-Benz touts fuel economy of their cars, none available in US

Filed under: Diesel, MPG, Mercedes Benz



Mercedes-Benz has issued a press release bragging about the fact that thirty-eight percent of their European sales are of cars that get more than 36mpg, and eighteen percent achieve better than 47 mpg. All of the high-mileage models are powered by diesel engines, but unfortunately none of these models are available for purchase in the US market. Several of the models are A and B-Class series which have never been sold here. The others are C an E-Class models with smaller four-cylinder diesel engines that can't be had here, although we may see some in a few years when the next generation Mercedes four-cylinder diesel is introduced. The Mercedes press release is after the jump.
