Mercedes-Benz C Class Car Reviews

The C-Class is equipped with a comfortable cabin, but would not necessarily make for a good family vehicle, as space is limited, especially in the rear of the car. While it was not designed to be an all-out sports car, it delivers an enjoyable ride particularly at higher speeds.

The Mercedes C-Class is currently in its third generation. The current model is available as a 5-door hatchback or as a 4-door saloon. There is a choice of transmissions available, including a 7-speed automatic.

The C-Class is a premium car and comes with a high price tag. However, the price reflects the performance, style, comfort and sheer satisfaction of driving a Mercedes.
