The numbers

Expect 16 MPG in city driving and 18 MPG on the highway. The two ratings are close, so the listed combined figure is 17 MPG.

The car's tailpipe CO2 figure is 522.76 grams per mile.

What it costs to run

The listed annual fuel cost is $3,950. Your actual spending will depend on how much you drive and how much gasoline costs, but this figure gives the car's yearly running-cost reference.

At 17 combined MPG, fuel use is a central part of owning this car, especially for frequent driving.

How it compares

In a chart organized by combined MPG, this car is represented by its 17 MPG figure. Its city and highway ratings remain 16 and 18 MPG, respectively.

The narrow two-MPG gap between city and highway figures gives buyers a simple way to compare its expected use with another car's EPA ratings.

Who it suits

This car suits someone seeking a midsize body with rear-wheel drive, gasoline power, and an automatic transmission.

It may fit drivers whose priority is this body and drivetrain layout rather than minimizing annual fuel spending.

Trade-offs

The 2.0 L four-cylinder engine and automatic four-speed transmission keep the setup straightforward, while the 17 combined MPG rating points to substantial fuel use.

You get only a small difference between city and highway economy: 16 MPG versus 18 MPG. The listed $3,950 annual fuel cost is the main ownership trade-off in these figures.

Verdict

Choose the 230E MERC BENZ if a midsize rear-wheel-drive car with an automatic gearbox matches your needs. Its fuel numbers call for a realistic budget: 17 MPG combined and $3,950 in listed yearly fuel cost. Highway trips do not transform its economy, because the highway rating reaches only 18 MPG. This is a fit for a buyer who accepts gasoline expense in exchange for this specific 1993 body, engine, and drivetrain combination.
