Mercedes-Benz C-Class has now made its debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, in Detroit. The all new C-Class is one of the most premium and sophisticated compact sedans ever produced by the company. The company has brought the new 2015 C-Class along with the entry-level CLA Class to improve the sales and revitalize its flagship brand C-Class.
The 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class looks more like a compact version of the S-Class, as both share a great resemblance. The swept-back headlamps and protruded grilles are borrowed from the S-Class, while the finely scalloped sides are inspired from the CLS and CLA. The 2015 Mercedes-Benz will be made available from September in International markets. The longer wheelbase and increased length dimension make the new C-Class bigger than before. Acquiring aluminium body construction, the saloon is not only 10 percent lighter, but is claimed to deliver 20 percent more fuel efficiency without affecting its performance. The new C-Class also have some exclusive features like head-up display and air suspension, which were earlier offered with more premium Mercedes models.
The new C-Class is offered in two engine options. The C300 will derive power from a 2.0-litre, turbocharged, four-cylinder and direct-injected powertrain that will make a peak power output of 235bhp with a 273 pound-feet of torque. The C400 will be powered with a 3.0-litre turbocharged, V6, turbocharged engine, offering a maximum power of 329bhp and 354 pound-feet of torque. The performance oriented C63 AMG variant will be configured with a 4.0-litre, V8, twin-turbo engine.
