Who it suits. Buyers wanting a midsize rear-wheel-drive gasoline car Drivers comfortable with high annual fuel spending
The 1993 J.K. Motors MERC BENZ 300CE centers on a traditional gasoline setup: rear-wheel drive, a 3.0 L six-cylinder, and a four-speed automatic. Its 15 MPG combined rating is straightforward, but the running cost is substantial at $4,450 a year in the listed figure. Buyers who value this drivetrain and midsize-car format may accept that expense. Drivers seeking fewer fuel stops or a lighter annual gasoline bill should look toward cars with higher combined MPG ratings.

This 1993 MERC BENZ 300CE is a gasoline midsize car from J.K. Motors. It uses rear-wheel drive, a 3.0 L six-cylinder engine, and a four-speed automatic transmission. See other J.K. Motors cars.
The numbers
The figure to watch is 15 MPG combined. That means about 15 miles from a gallon under the combined city-and-highway rating. The city figure is 14 MPG, while highway driving is rated at 16 MPG.
Tailpipe CO2 is listed at 592.47 grams per mile.
What it costs to run
The EPA annual fuel cost listed for this car is $4,450. Your actual bill will depend on how much you drive and the gasoline price you pay, but the 15 MPG combined rating sets the fuel-use reference.
How it compares
Use its 15 MPG combined figure when comparing cars in the MPG chart. A car with a higher combined MPG rating should travel farther on each gallon; a lower rating points to more frequent fuel use. Its 14 city and 16 highway figures show only a small difference between those two driving settings.
Who it suits
This car suits a buyer who wants a midsize body, rear-wheel drive, and a gasoline six-cylinder powertrain, and who accepts a 15 MPG combined rating.
Trade-offs
The four-speed automatic and six-cylinder engine define the powertrain, while the fuel figures define its running burden. City economy is 14 MPG and highway economy is 16 MPG, so neither setting moves far from the 15 MPG combined result.
Verdict
Choose this 300CE for its specific mix of midsize-car packaging, rear-wheel drive, and a 3.0 L six-cylinder engine. The deciding cost is fuel: the listed annual figure is $4,450, and the EPA ratings stay near 15 MPG in both city and highway use. That makes the car a clearer fit for someone comfortable budgeting heavily for gasoline than for a buyer focused on minimizing fuel spending. Its emissions figure, 592.47 grams per mile, adds another concrete measure of that trade-off.
