Mercedes-Benz introduces a new and dynamic class of luxury to its range – the all-new C-Class sedan. As the first classic model series from Mercedes-Benz, the new C-Class exudes this timeless style while setting a new standard for progress. Electrified throughout thanks to the plug-in hybrids and mild hybrids with 48-volt technology and integrated starter-generator, this design is an expression of sportiness and combines progressiveness with luxury.
Featuring larger, bolder and more innovative characteristics than before, the new C-Class marries luxury with comfort to offer both the driver and passengers an elevated experience. The C-Class sedans also feature AMG styling, which is standard for the GCC.
The new C-Class already looks to be in motion even at a standstill with its dynamic proportions owing to the combination of short front overhang, long wheelbase and rear overhang. The sporty bonnet with power domes accentuates this urge of forward motion.
The on-board high-efficiency battery system achieves an electric range of about 100 kilometres (WLTP[1]) as a plug-in hybrid, which is unprecedented in this category to date. It also sets new standards in sustainability, and because the C-Class is one of the company’s highest-volume model series, this systematic electrification also makes it one of the most environmentally friendly in the range. Other technical refinements include Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive systems such as DIGITAL LIGHT, rear-axle steering and Active Stop-and-Go Assist available as optional extras.
Interior design
The dashboard is divided into an upper and a lower section: into a wing-like section with new, flattened round vents reminiscent of aircraft engine nacelles, and into an opulent expanse of trim. The latter flows from the centre console to the dashboard without interruption. Driver-focus adds to the sportiness: the dashboard and central display are slightly tilted towards the driver by six degrees.
The driver area behind the steering wheel features a high-resolution LCD screen. This sets the driver display apart from traditional cockpits with classic round dials.This allows the driver to easily manoeuvre between the controls, which are also on the steering wheel.
The new C-Class is fitted with the second generation of MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience). The result is a vehicle interior that is even more digital and intelligent, as both the hardware and software have made great strides.
The seats, presented in two-tone, feature a new design and are styled to give them a sportier, yet sturdy and comfortable feel.
Feature-packed
The new C-Class is equipped with LED High Performance headlamps as standard. The Digital Light system familiar from the new S-Class is available as an option. This revolutionary headlamp technology allows new functions, e.g. the projection of guidelines or warning symbols onto the road ahead. The Air-Balance Package provides an individual fragrance sensation in the interior.
The optional massage function of the front seats has been expanded to cover the entire back area: eight chambers in the backrest ensure an improved deep-tissue effect. A vibrating massage is also possible on the driver’s side, with four motors installed in the seat cushion.
At its heart, the new C-Class is the next stage of evolution for a classic Mercedes as it embodies the development of contemporary luxury.
