Thinking of getting a Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
The style of the car
The C-Class is among the most stylish mid-size executive cars, bearing a strong resemblance to the Mercedes S-Class luxury saloon. It’s available as a four-door saloon, five-door estate, two-door coupe or two-door convertible. AMG Line trim and the powerful AMG C43 and C63 models have a sportier look. The interior looks great, too, with metal air vents and a large dashboard display screen
How it drives
The C-Class is a very satisfying car to drive that’s quieter and comfier on long journeys than many similar cars. The steering’s light and most models have an automatic gearbox. It’s a big-ish car, but driving down narrow city streets and parking are no problem. The view behind in coupe and convertible models isn’t perfect, but every C-Class has standard parking sensors and some models have cameras. There’s a huge choice of petrol and diesel engines, plus hybrid models. Even the smallest engines give good acceleration up to motorway speeds and the C43 and C63 models are seriously fast. Some models have four-wheel drive. Diesel four-wheel drive models can tow up to 1800kg.
Looking for a plug-in hybrid? Here are our favourites.
The interior
The C-Class is a mid-size executive car available as a five-seat saloon or estate, or four-seat coupe or convertible. It’s about the same size as the Audi A4 or BMW 3 Series.
The saloon and estate have generous space for four adults or a growing family. The boot has space for five medium suitcases and the back seats can fold down. Adults fit in the back seats of the coupe and convertible but, without back doors, access isn’t as easy. All C-Class models have climate control, cruise control and smartphone mirroring. Top-spec models are packed with luxury features, including leather upholstery, keyless entry and electric driver’s seat adjustment.
Running costs and reliability
According to official figures, petrol C-Class models give fuel economy of at least 35mpg, while diesels give at least 49mpg. The 4MATIC models are less efficient. The C43 and C63 give 29mpg and 25mpg, respectively. Hybrid models are much more economical and plug-in hybrids have a range of around 30 miles on battery power. Insurance and road tax costs are generally low, but can be less cost-effective for the AMG models. Safety experts Euro NCAP awarded the C-Class a full five-star rating.
How it compares with similar cars
C-Class rivals include the Alfa Romeo Giulia, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series and Lexus IS. The C-Class isn’t the most fun to drive but it looks great, has a practical interior and a luxurious feel that’s really appealing.
Mercedes-Benz C-Class common questions
Mercedes has a reputation for building reliable cars and the C-Class feels very well built and is likely to be a dependable choice.
Running costs for the C-Class are on a par with other mid-size executive cars, with surprisingly cost-effective options at one end of the range and much more expensive options at the other. Plug-in hybrid versions offer good fuel economy and low emissions and a range of around 30 miles on battery power.
The C-Class saloon and estate have generous space for four adults and good-size boots. The estate is the most practical option, while the coupe and convertible are less spacious.
The C-Class offers a similar range of qualities and models as the Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series but it gives you an especially wide range of models to choose from and has a greater focus on comfort and luxury.
