mpg for a Mercedes E200

Ding Dong

Hi All, I have a petrol Mercedes E200, year 2000. What mpg would you expect from it? I am thinking of getting a 2.2 Hyundai Santa Fe diesel as replacement. Should it be more fuel efficient as they reckon that gets on average 35 mpg. any feedback would be helpful

sounds about right to me. i have a o5 clk200 so more or less the same engine. i get up to 42mpg on dublin-cork but 20-25 city driving..

I have a 96 E230 petrol automatic and I get about 35mpg over a tank on it.

Can't imagine your Santa Fe would be a whole lot better than your e200, maybe if you are doing a lot of town driving. If your trying to get a economical car I'd head for a 250D merc or if you can afford it a e270 cdi - they get you 55mpg even with a heavy foot. Something more than a 35mpg car at any rate. I consider 35mpg average to be bad.

Upgrading to a diesel will probably depend on your annual mileage. And although I haven't heard anything bad about the 2.2 in the Santa Fe. My old man had a couple of them on his fleet at work and mpg overall was usually around 30-35mpg. These were commercials though.

You could always just upgrade to a more fuel efficient petrol car.
