I have a 2017 W213 E220d Estate, it comes with a nine speed auto.
Spec sheet : 421 9-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Something is bugging me, when I drive it only does up to D8 on the instrument cluster, so I told myself the 9 gears are 8 forward (hence D8) and reverse making nine.
But my interest got the better of me and I googled how many forward gears should I have, and it seems to say 9.
Anyone know the honest figure ? Am I missing a gear ?
