The R 350 4MATIC shows how you can cause quite a stir with understatement. This V6 engine with four valves per cylinder and continuously variable camshaft adjustment provide spontaneous power delivery. 200 kW (272 hp) demonstrates great pulling power for quick bursts of speed. The petrol engine also allows for relaxed cruising in the upper gears – and the consumption figures are impressively low.

Effortless superiority in any driving situation is the defining characteristic of the new 8-cylinder engine in the R 500 4MATIC. The figures tell their own story: 285 kW (388 hp) and a maximum torque of 530 Nm. The R 500 4MATIC accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in just 6.1 seconds. Variable intake and exhaust camshafts, as well as extensive use of lightweight materials such as magnesium, ensure excellent fuel economy for this vehicle class.
