Who it suits. Drivers wanting a gasoline station wagon with four-wheel or all-wheel drive Mixed city and highway driving where both EPA figures matter

The 1993 Mercedes-Benz 300TE 4Matic makes sense for someone specifically seeking an older Mercedes-Benz wagon with four-wheel or all-wheel drive. Its 17 MPG combined rating is easy to understand, but the $4,850 annual fuel estimate is the central ownership consideration. Highway use is rated at 19 MPG, compared with 15 MPG in the city. The wagon layout and drivetrain can be weighed against that stated fuel cost.

Verdict

Choose this 300TE 4Matic if a 1993 wagon with gasoline power and four-wheel or all-wheel drive matches your needs. Its EPA figures point to moderate fuel mileage rather than low running expense.
