The Typ 230 was the Mercedes-Benz that middle Germany actually drove in the late 1930s — a six-cylinder saloon and cabriolet line that sold in numbers the Kompressor cars never approached.
Mercedes-Benz positioned the W143 as the mainstream six-cylinder offering: 2.3-liter engine, conventional rear-drive layout, and a range of Sindelfingen bodies from practical saloons to touring cabriolets. It was the step up from the four-cylinder 170 V for buyers who wanted refinement and pace without the cost or complexity of the supercharged eight-cylinder range.
Production spanned 1937 to 1941, and the archive tables record 20,290 examples on the W143 chassis. The Typ 230 was among the highest-volume Mercedes-Benz passenger programs of its decade — the defining six-cylinder car of the late pre-war years.
