2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class launch to take place on 10th May, prices likely to start from Rs. 50 lakhs
Mercedes-Benz is set to launch its limousine, the C-Class, on 10th May with booking already underway for a token amount of Rs. 50,000/-. The luxury sedan will be offered in 3 variants – C200, C220d, and C300d. Unveiled last year, C-Class is currently in its fifth generation.
Designed taking inspiration from the S-Class, the new C-Class is 65 mm longer than its previous version. It sports a revised grille, sleeker LED headlamps with integrated LED drls, and new split LED tail-lamps. It runs on 19-inch alloy wheels and the blackened B-pillars complete the look on the side.
On the inside, along with more space, there is new age technology throughout including the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and the 11.9-inch infotainment touchscreen taken straight from the S-Class.
The touchscreen infotainment system features ‘Hey Mercedes’ connected car technology while other features include sunroof, wireless charging, heated steering wheel, and Nappa leather upholstery.
The luxury sedan is likely to sport both petrol and diesel engine options including a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol unit good for 167 HP and 250 Nm while a 9-speed automatic gearbox will be the sole transmission on offer.
The car is also likely to feature integrated starter-generator (ISG) as well, although the exact details of the powertrains which will be offered here is unknown.
The 2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is expected to be launched at a starting price of Rs. 50.01 lakhs (ex-showroom). Once launched, it will rival the competitors – Audi A4, Volvo S60, BMW 3 Series, and Jaguar XE.
