![1964 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE W112 (Automatic / 4 Gears) RWD [1961-1965]](https://i0.wp.com/i0.wp.com/autogalactic.al/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/abc-18c0f2156d61f40a804188057136447dfe171aaf.webp?fit=1920%2C1440&ssl=1&resize=360,270)
The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE, equipped with the optional 3.75 axis, was the configuration that combined the maximum comfort of the automatic gearbox with the high performance on the highway. This vehicle is powered by the legendary M189 engine, a 2996 cm3 Gasoline engine with aluminum block and mechanical injection Bosch, which produces 170 hp / 168 HP / 125 kW at 5400 rpm and a 249 Nm torque at 4000 rpm. Thanks to the 3.75 -axis ratio, this limousine reaches a maximum speed of 195 km/h , correcting the loss of speed that the automatic gearbox usually brought. Like any W112 model, it comes with pneumatic (airborne) suspension as standard equipment, offering a travel experience that was decades ahead of its rivals.
