What is mersedes 190?

The Mercedes-Benz 190, also known as the W201, is a compact executive car produced by Mercedes-Benz from 1982 to 1993. It was the company's first compact model to be sold under the Mercedes-Benz nameplate and was designed to fill the gap between the entry-level Mercedes-Benz 100 and the mid-range Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

The Mercedes 190 came in a range of petrol and diesel engine options, with power outputs ranging from 72 horsepower (diesel) to 178 horsepower (petrol). It was available in both four-door sedan and five-door estate body styles.

The 190 was renowned for its durability and was a popular choice for taxi fleets around the world. It was also a successful car in motorsports, particularly in touring car racing where it won the world championship in 1986.

In 1993, the Mercedes 190 was replaced by the C-Class, which also marked the end of the W201 platform. However, the 190 remains a popular choice for collectors and enthusiasts, with well-maintained examples commanding high prices.
