What do the letters in Mercedes model numbers represent? (also known as class) i.e. E, C, S?

Answer 1

Origin of the S-Class
While the exact beginning of the colloquial S-Class expression cannot be determined precisely, it has always referred to the most spacious and largest luxury vehicle in the Mercedes-Benz line-up,

C-Class hatchbackThe Mercedes-Benz C-Class is an entry-level luxury car / compact executive car produced by the German automaker Mercedes-Benz. The C-Class was first introduced in 1993 as a replacement for the 190 range. It was the most affordable model in the Mercedes lineup until the arrival of the A-Class in 1998.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is a mid-size luxury car / executive car sold by the Mercedes-Benz branch of DaimlerChrysler. The model line is available with various six and eight-cylinder petroleum gasoline and diesel engines. The E stood for Einspritzung, which is German for fuel injection, which was a very new feature at the time the "E" first appeared in the 1950s. The E-Class is the bestselling Mercedes-Benz model worldwide.

A pink letter Christian is someone that only believes or follows the words of Jesus (they are in pink in some Bibles) and delivers little to no credence to some thing of the recent testomony (those issues written by skill of Paul, Timothy, Peter, etc).

Answer 3

When it originated
C meant carburettor,
E meant Einspritz - fuel injected
S meant Sonderklasse - special class.

Since all MB cars have fuel injection now the meaning has more to do with the size of the body.
