2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Mercedes-Benz gets classy in the mid-sized luxury segment with the all-new C-Class. The C-Class has been an upmarket mid-sized saloon with great customer satisfaction record to boast of. The 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class looks up at the grand Mercedes-Benz S-Class for inspiration. Thankfully, Mercedes-Benz India has decided not to bring the EXCLUSIVE line鈥檚 classic Saloon radiator grille with the Mercedes star on the bonnet. This miniature S-Class now carries a softer and rounder profile. The Classic stroke- like shoulder-line merges with the new LED headlamps add to the C-Class鈥?attractive design. The new C-Class has 80mm longer wheelbase (2840mm) compared to the previous model. It鈥檚 also 95mm longer and 40mm wider but weighs up to 100kg less than the older model. The key reason behind this is its brand new platform which uses about 48 per cent aluminium. Being a direct descendent of the S-Class, the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class has a completely new and, might I add, jaw-dropping cabin design.

So, what wasn鈥檛 a talking point of the out-going model has now becoming its strongest asset, with sweeping curves and top class textures. You can scroll through the on-screen menu using the much talked about touchpad which is positioned below the cascading centre console. Simply swipe left and right to navigate through functions, and pinch to zoom in on maps. Another cool feature is the air-conditioning system which uses GPS maps to detect approaching tunnels and automatically switch the airflow to re-circulate. This is further complimented by an air ioniser and a perfuming system located in the gloves compartment, just like the S-Class. The rich interiors of the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class does complete justice to the mini-S-Class tag the mid-sized saloon has been given by the industry. The outgoing Mercedes-Benz C250 isn鈥檛 the most refined cars in its class. The diesel engines are noisy with noticeable vibration, and coarseness seeping in the cabin too. The smooth new C250 proved to be reasonably dynamic and spirited, though the 7G-Tronic autobox doesn鈥檛 feel as crisp as competition. It plunges ahead with fair amount of urgency and claims a respectable 0-100kmph time of 6.6 seconds. The chassis of the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is extremely stable, and is smooth even on the most demanding roads. The ride quality remains plush in pretty much any mode but the C-Class neither wallows, nor pitches like a luxury boat. In terms of handling, the focus clearly seems to be on refinement rather than sports car like feedback.

The new Mercedes-Benz design idiom is younger, fresher and sets powerful accents through elegant detail solutions. Translated to the E-Class Saloon, the vehicle's powerful profile with tapered side lines, a distinctive arrow-shaped front end with twin-headlamp face and muscular rear section speak of self-assurance. Enhancing the visual impact are such features as the standard LED daytime driving lamps, LED tail lights and a chrome-finish 2-louvre radiator grille. The E-Class Saloon competes with other large executive saloons like the BMW 5 Series and Audi A6. The 5 Series saw a facelift in 2013 but changes were minimal, with tweaks made to the front and rear lights and the interior improved. The A6 may have unassuming looks but it still boasts an elegant and appealing design among its peers. The A6 was always a bit behind its biggest rival the 5 Series. That is until the appearance of the latest A6 model, which is a great all-rounder thanks to the introduction of a new Ultra spec which boosts performance and efficiency.

The E-Class Saloon's cabin features choice materials and fine workmanship, with the high quality woods and upholstery variants of the ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE design and equipment lines highlighting the individual style of the interior. A host of standard and optional comfort features - such as active multicontour seats, THERMATIC and THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control, climatised front seats and panoramic sliding sunroof - aim for the saloon's occupants to want for nothing more. The cabin of the BMW 5 Series is slick, impeccably built and makes good use of high quality materials, while the Audi A6 also counts among its features a quality interior.

When it comes to the road, the E-Class Saloon might not be as sharp or engaging as the 5 Series but it still feels poised and inspires confidence. The steering is direct and naturally weighted, body control is good and grip is decent, while good driving visibility adds to the E-Class appeal. With extensive use of aluminium, the Audi A6 feels agile on the move and is a precise, good drive. It's the BMW 5 Series that sets the standard for driving fun in the executive car class, with its poised, rear-wheel drive handling, great refinement and strong pace.
