Dynamic, Progressive and Refined: the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class as You’ve Never Seen It Before

As the first classic model series from Mercedes-Benz, the launch of the C-Class in 1993 revolutionised the concept of luxury sedans in the market. The perfect blend of luxury, comfort and performance, it was packed in a compacted body and equipped with features way ahead of its time. Setting a new benchmark for modern luxury, it’s not hard to see why the C-Class instantly amassed a major fan following across the globe. Today, in its fifth generation, it continues to exude timeless style, while offering all the techy updates one would expect from one of the world’s most innovative car manufacturers. With its characteristic sleek exterior and comfortable interior, it is now larger, bolder and more advanced than ever before.

The new Mercedes-Benz C-Class is known for providing ultimate comfort, agility and luxury, but the 2022 series takes innovation to whole new levels. 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. The on-board high-efficiency battery system achieves an electric range of about 100 kilometres (WLTP) as a plug-in hybrid, which is unprecedented in this category to date.

It also sets new standards in sustainability, and because the new 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 and Active Stop-and-Go Assist available as optional extras. The ultra-modern technical advances and safety features such as the suspension and rear-axle steering offers a more agile drive and an increased peace of mind.

With a length of 4751 mm and a width of 1820 mm, the new C-Class is considerably larger than its predecessor, providing its passengers with the utmost comfort. The preceding model was already a great step forward in terms of a high-value appeal in the interior, but the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class goes even further with respect to modern luxury. The sporty and superior appearance include the wide track and the flush 17 to 19-inch wheels in modern designs. The interior is equipped with the second generation of MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience), making it even more digital and intelligent.

Numerous comfort highlights, ultra-modern technical advances and safety features make it the perfect family car, offering complete peace of mind while retaining the essence of this classic vehicle. While modern and refined, the new C-Class is assuredly a Mercedes-Benz and makes each drive an oasis of relaxation in every situation.
