The W201 190E was the Baby Benz — the compact saloon Mercedes-Benz built to defend its entry-level territory against the BMW 3 Series and Audi 80, and in doing so, changed what the brand could mean.
Launched in 1982, the 190 brought multi-link rear suspension, careful aerodynamics, and a range from frugal diesel to the Cosworth-developed 2.3-16 and 2.5-16 models — plus the homologation Evolution and Evolution II specials. It was smaller than a W123, but it was every bit a Mercedes-Benz in structure and intent.
Some 1,774,220 W201s were built between 1982 and 1993.
