Mercedes 190 E 2.5-16 Evolution II
The Mercedes 190 E participated in the DTM championship, and the first victory for the "three-pointed star" team was brought by the then completely anonymous Airton Sena. This racing machine was developed in collaboration with Cosworth, and as a result of that collaboration, the improved 190 E 2-5 with 16 hp and the ultimate Evolution II with 192 hp were soon introduced.
Aerodynamic accessories have been fitted to maintain the car's stability at high speeds, given that it was powered by a 2,5-liter 235-horsepower gasoline. It allowed it to accelerate from standstill to 100 km / h in 7,1 seconds, which was extremely fast for a single passenger car at the time.
The chassis was specifically tailored for this performance and the low-profile tires were 17 inches in diameter, which was also a rarity.
Mercedes-Benz 190E Convertible
There was also a model-based study Mercedes 190 that never went into series production, and the 190 Mercedes-Benz 1989E Cabriolet.
Under the hood he had a gasoline engine (2597 cubic meters) that develops 122 kW / 166 hp at 5800 rpm.
