In the early 80s, Mercedes-Benz was in trouble. A company that produced classic models of cars was experiencing the consequences of the oil crisis in 1973, the question arose of producing a more compact and economical car. And in 1982, a new economical and compact model Mercedes-Benz 190 (W201) appears. After the appearance, the company seizes leadership in the European C segment and began to compete closely with the BMW 3 Series. Reducing the length of the body by 300 mm compared to traditional Mercedes-Benz W123 sedans and the use of new light alloys made it possible to gain 160 kg of curb weight, the four-door sedan body received (for the first time for Mercedes-Benz) a wedge-shaped silhouette, glass and doors flush with the surface and lining instead gutters on the roof, which reduced the drag coefficient C to 0.33 and, in turn, significantly reduced fuel consumption. In violation of tradition, the concern continued to give the index190" to all models of the W201 family, regardless of engine size, only adding additional numbers in the model name.
