What market are you in? US C250's are the 1.8 direct injection turbo

Yes there is.

In Canada, the W204 car with the 2.5L V6 was initially called the C230. More recently, it was rebadged the C250. There was never a 4 cylinder W204 in Canada from 2008-2011. In 2012 the facelifted W204 C250s will have two options. The RWD C250 is a turbocharged 4 cylinder, while the 4MATIC C250 retains the 2.5L V6.

There is. I'm driving one. It's a 2010 model.

To answer the question, I believe the 1.8 m271 engine has more torque at a lower RPM, with the same horse power rating.

I love the sound of the v6, though.

I'll take low end torque over engine sound.
