Mercedes-Benz 190E Goes Back To The Future With C 111 Art Car

We just aren’t sure what engine was fitted into this particular model. But as an experimental prototype in the ’70s, the C 111 had interesting power units, including a 350-horsepower four-rotor Wankel engine and a five-cylinder turbodiesel with 228 horsepower. A V8 was also used in later versions, enabling the car to go more than 250 mph way before the Bugatti Veyron.

Meanwhile, the Mercedes-Benz W201 was offered with various power plants – from the ever-reliable M102 four-cylinder to the top-spec 3.2-liter AMG engines.

“I would like to create versatile but at the same time functioning sculptures in places, which I like,” said Sailtorfer on Mercedes-Benz’s Instagram post.
