Konken Clutched October 13, 2009 Share October 13, 2009 They turbo charge the smaller engines for power while at the same time meet the lower/ more stringent EU emission standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current 1.6SC C180 produces the same power and torque as the previous 1.8SC C180 (about 156bhp). It is also designed as a Blue Efficiency model, with enhancements that boost fuel economy. OMV is about the same. The C200 is 1.8L SC producing 184bhp. The TC version of 1.8L engine is used in the new E Class E200 and E250.

Cerano 1st Gear October 13, 2009 Share October 13, 2009 hi bro yes all sc. however, the sound insulation in the new c180 is reduced to lighten the weight so theres more noise up front Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholasl Neutral Newbie October 13, 2009 Share October 13, 2009 Can't wait for the 1.8T on the C class. Hopefully on a C250. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konken Clutched October 15, 2009 Share October 15, 2009 I was reading up on some Blue Efficiency articles, some refer it to twin turbo charging, so is that = super charging? Any bros here well versed in these terminology? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konken Clutched October 15, 2009 Share October 15, 2009 apparently they are also using a new and thinner wind screen for lesser weight... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any bros here well versed in these terminology? Hi bro theres only a twin pulse supercharged engine. no turbo turbo is not supercharge. both are forced induction to increase power but turbo draws the power from the exhaust while super is from the belt in the engine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerano 1st Gear October 15, 2009 Share October 15, 2009 C180's power would only be comparable to like the 320... not that great if you wanna chiong all the way . but theres kleeman piggyback and SC pulley to up BHP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtrocious 1st Gear October 15, 2009 Share October 15, 2009 hi bro yes all sc. however, the sound insulation in the new c180 is reduced to lighten the weight so theres more noise up front We tried both the C180BE and the C200 - found the C180's 1.6l engine to be very gruff, which did not match the much touted refinement of the Merc badge... So we went for the C200 instead - much more relaxed and the engine doesn't sound and feel strained... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
