The Mercedes-Benz 220 Sb of August 1963 with automatic transmission represented one of the most refined limousines of the “Heckflosse” (Fintail) series, combining the 6-cylinder engine with the high comfort of non-stress transmission. This vehicle is powered by the M180 engine, a 2195 cm3 Gasoline engine with 6 cylinders in line and the Zenith 35/40 INAT 2 carburetor system, which produces 110 hp / 109 hp/ 81 kW in 5000 rpm and a 172 Nm torque in 3500 rpm. Daimler-Benz’s 4-speed automatic transmission allows for extremely smooth driving, achieving a top speed of 160 km/h and a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 13.6 seconds . With a length of 4875 mm and high safety standards for the time, the 220 Sb automatic remains a symbol of German engineering elegance of the 60s.
