My Ride: 2000 E320 Wagon 4MATIC
I think it said 200kW for the new 530, so that would be 268hp, which is identical to the new MB E350 if anyone is counting.
528 (US): 172kW = 230hp
530 (maybe US?): 200kW = 268hp
535(US): 225kW = 302hp
Who knows if Canada will get these engines or not.

It has been designed in Europe and is currently in pre-production at GM Strasbourg (replacing the 5L40E).
The transmission is based on the all new GM Clutch to Clutch technology which I am told is a better drive than the existing ZF.
