2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
The C-Class family is still not
necessarily complete, since a four-door coupe named CLC remains under
investigation. But for now, it's almost a classic four-door sedan that was just
surprised by our spies in Stuttgart, not far from the brand headquarters. Only
clue that something frame is: a piece of electrical tape around the headlights.
Planned for autumn 2017, the facelift of the family at the star will linger in
effect on that part of the body, with a new lighting option called Multibeam
and borrowed from the E-Class: 84 optical diodes, driven individually, then
take care to optimize the beam continuously.
Bumper and grille will also undergo some
changes, but the most dramatic changes are planned for the interior even if
they require again to pay an additional fee or to turn to high finishes. The
C-Class 2018 will indeed receive two 12.3-inch widescreen juxtaposed, like its
big sisters E-Class and S-Class. As for the engine compartment, besides the 1.6
dCi Renault entry, it should welcome the new four-cylinder 2.0 petrol and
diesel house. Mechanical sharing their scores with unprecedented six-cylinder
in-line.
