Mercedes 190 ClassThe Mercedes 190 (W201) Class of automobiles was introduced in November 1982 as a compact Mercedes-Benz. Right hand versions were introduced the following year. All 190 Classes were built in Bremen, Germany. The model was a single 4 door saloon/sedan body type which was designed to fill a gap in the model range below the W123 series. It was quickly dubbed "the Baby Benz". In Europe the petrol engine range included 2.0 carb and injection engine plus a 2.3, 2.6 and finally the budget 1.8 ltr. Diesel power was supplied by 2.0 and 2.5 litre engines, the latter with a turbo. High performance models were developed for rallying but a change in the rules opened the door to 4 wheel drive models, Mercedes choose not to re-engineer the car and so turned their attention to the Deutschen Tourenwagen Masters motorsport series instead. For the USA the engine range did not include the 1.8 or 2.0 petrol blocks, while the Diesel engines were dropped after 1989. The 190E 2.3 version was dropped after 1988 and returned in 1991. 1993 marked the debut of the Limited Edition. Production ended on May 5, 1993. About 1.8 milion were produced. The C-Class replaced it in 1994. 190
