In August 1961, two new 4-cylinder models were presented beside the 300 SE and the 220 SEb Cabriolet. The Types 190 c and 190 Dc, assigned to model series 110, replaced the "Ponton" models 190 b and 190 Db and now had a "fintail body" like the 6-cylinder models. With the introduction of the new 4-cylinder models, the modular organization system, which Daimler had consistently pursued since post-war production began, reached a climax, which it was never to reach again. The big advantage of the uniform body was its great saving potential - the costs for development, manufacturing, and spare part deposits were reduced significantly. Moreover, a driver of the intermediate-class cars now too benefitted from the roomy interior and spacious boot. The 2.0-liter Diesel engine of the 190 Dc, developed from the 1.9-liter aggregate of the predecessor models was a true innovation - by rights, the new model should have been called 200 D. Apart from the increase in cubic capacity, changes also comprised a modified camshaft, readjusted injection pump as well as optimized intake pipes. The sum total of these measures led to an increase in power by 5 hp to 55 hp. The OM621 diesel engine in the 200D was essentially identical to that of the 190Dc but was improved by using a five main bearing crankshaft instead of the original three.
