Hi all,
I am looking over the stats and wondering if these numbers are validated yet.

2013 E350 V6 was rated 302 HP and 273 ft. lb torque
Motortrend mentions the facelift 2014 V6 will spec 333 HP but no torque spec.

I am curious what they are doing to the engine to make these gains, as it seems they are using the same lump overall.

My 2013 is so close to being at the end of production, this torque issue is bugging me. I wonder if the engine modifications they are making could be adapted to my 2013 powerplant.

Also, anyone have pricing on the 2014 V6 wagon yet?

Cheers,
Bob

Amazing how they're approaching 100hp/litre which not long ago could only be achieved via turbocharging. Prediction futuristic F1 style 1.6L engines revving at 19,000rpm.

That HP was for Europe. That may not happen here.

I really think that sucks too! I would really like to get the E350 BLUETEC 4MATIC!
