Mercedes Benz E300, the first BLUETEC sedan
The BLUETEC emission control will no longer be solely utilized by light, medium, and heavy duty trucks as the luxury brand Mercedes Benz has equipped its passenger cars with the same environment-friendly technology.
A cleaner and a fewer emissions have been achieved by the upgraded version of the sedan Mercedes Benz E300 after the BLUETEC was installed in its exhaust system. To date, the three-pointed star’s improved passenger car is the first non-heavy transport vehicle to be geared with such innovation. This four-door Mercedes Benz has a 3.0-liter V6 engine and has already performed better than expected as it registered only burning 7.3 liters of diesel per 100 kilometers. Not only does the BLUETEC limits the fuel used by the engine, but this technology has also helped reduce the harmful gases like nitrogen oxide and lower the Mercedes Benz E300 emission to safer and environment-friendly level.
Moreover, the BLUETEC complements the other remarkable Mercedes Benz exhaust parts such as the oxidation catalytic converter and SCR catalytic converter, in reducing noxious emissions or gases before these are released into the air.
Aside from the Mercedes Benz E300’s new parts, its transmission gearbox is also capable of an impressive 0 to100 mph in just under seven seconds. Moreover, the Mercedes Benz E300’s speed can shoot up the ceiling with 240 mph.
In the crusade of reducing harmful gases that can aggravate more the global warming condition, the BLUETEC will go full-blast in the exhaust systems of the heavy transport industry’s vehicles by January.
