The Mercedes-Benz E220 (sold as the 220E for 1993) was a variant of the W124 Sedan that debuted for the 1993 model year. The E220 was powered Mercedes' M111.960 engine, which was a 2.2L inline four that generated 150hp and 155 lb ft of torque. This power was sent to the rear wheels through a 5 speed manual or a 4 speed automatic transmission. For the 1994 model year, Mercedes changed their naming system, so the 220E became the E220. Production of the W124 Mercedes-Benz E220 lasted until 1995 with a total of 105,346 examples built. Although factory production ended in 1995, knockdown kit versions were built until 1996.
