Characterised by its distinct sporty & aggressive look while retaining its classic appeal, the new generation C-Class offers a new presence that integrates safety, comfort and agility, the company said. The entry level luxury sedan has incorporated 2000 changes in it when compared to the C class that was just phased out.

The car is available in two engine options: C 250 CDI diesel & C 200 petrol and both are fitted with 7-speed automatic transmission. The diesel car with a 2.14 litre engine produces 204hp max power @ 4200 rpm and 500nm of max torque @ 1600-1800 rpm. The petrol car with a 1.8 litre engine produces 186 hp of max power @ 5600 rpm and 285 nm of max torque @ 2400-4000 rpm. The starting price of the diesel C class is Rs 32.73 lakh (ex-showroom Bangalore) and for petrol it is Rs 29.92 lakh.   

Mercedes-Benz India Director Sales & Marketing Debashis Mitra said, “The new C-Class, with its complete redesign both external and internal, will continue to set newer benchmarks in design, quality and luxury for the segment, with features that are stylish and luxurious like the first ever Panaromic Sunroof in this segment.”
