Mercedes-Benz OM651 Engine
The OM651 is a family of inline-four cylinder automobile diesel engines introduced by Mercedes-Benz in 2008. Design The main goal was to create a common engine design that maximized the parts commonality between the engines manufactured by parent company, Daimler.

Improved fuel efficiency and compliance with Euro 5 emission standards were also design objectives, by 2010 being updated to the Euro 6 standard; four piezo-electric injectors fed with very high pressure fuel from a common rail inject fuel directly into the combustion chambers to improve combustion compared to previous Mercedes Diesel engines and recirculated exhaust gas reduces the oxygen in the cylinders to "starve" any reactions that would produce NO(x).

Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class
The Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class is a compact executive roadster, produced by Mercedes-Benz. It was released in 1996 and was built at the Mercedes plant in Bremen, Germany, until the end of production in 2020.
