Mercedes-Benz C-Class Overview
Power Meets Performance
The base engine for the new C-Class Sedans, Coupes, and Cabriolets is a 241-hp 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder. Depending on the model you select, you’ll receive either a 7- or 9-speed G-TRONIC® automatic transmission with DYNAMIC SELECT®. The base drivetrain is rear-wheel drive, but cutting-edge 4MATIC® all-wheel drive is also available. 4MATIC® distributes engine torque to each drive wheel. There are also a number AMG®-enhanced engines, including a biturbo V8 that makes 503 hp, as well as a hybrid powertrain that makes an EPA-estimated 45 MPGe city and 61 MPGe.
Driver-Friendly Technology
Overlooking the cockpit is a 7-inch central screen, which is easily accessible via the central controller’s rotary knob and one-touch buttons. The crisp display screen lets you scroll through Bluetooth®* phonebooks and music files, and choose DYNAMIC SELECT® drive modes. Entertainment-wise, the C-Class comes prepared, featuring an HD Radio™ receiver, a FrontBass® system with an under-dash subwoofer, and an optional 13-speaker Burmester® Premium Surround Sound system. Available in-car Wi-Fi turns your C-Class into a mobile hotspot, letting you and your passengers connect up to four devices to the wireless network. Other available technology features for the C-Class include:
- Head-Up Display
- COMAND® hard-drive navigation with an 8.4-inch screen
- Touchpad controller
- Navigation map updates for three years

The C-Class Sedans
The 2018 C 300 Sedan sports a 2.0L inline-4 turbo engine rated at 241 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque, and earns a 24 mpg city and 34 mpg highway rating. Standard features include a 7G-TRONIC® transmission, a 7-inch display screen, DYNAMIC SELECT® drive program, a rearview camera, and five years of Mercedes-Benz mbrace® Connect.
Like the C 300, the 2018 C 300 4MATIC® Sedan also features a 241-hp turbo 4-cylinder engine, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 6.0 seconds. What sets this capable sedan apart is its standard 4MATIC® all-wheel drive system with specialized 4ETS® and ESP®, which delivers enhanced traction on rugged or slippery driving surfaces.
Equipped with a turbo 4-cylinder engine, a hybrid electric motor, and AIRMATIC® suspension, the 2017 C 350e Plug-In Hybrid Sedan creates up to 275 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque. As expected, gas + electric fuel economy ratings for this premium hybrid are stellar outstanding at 45 MPGe city and 61 MPGe highway.
Capable of reaching 60 mph from 0 in just 4.6 seconds, the 2018 AMG® C 43 Sedan owes its power to an AMG®-enhanced 3.0L V6 biturbo engine, which is rated at 362 hp and 384 lb-ft of torque. Fuel-efficient features, such as ECO-START®/Stop and a 9G-TRONIC® transmission, help this energetic five-seater achieve a 20 mpg city and 28 mpg highway EPA rating.
As the penultimate C-Class Sedan, the 2018 AMG® C 63 Sedan generates a noteworthy 469 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque, thanks to its hand-crafted AMG® 4.0L V8 biturbo engine. A 7-speed AMG® SPEEDSHIFT® MCT transmission, an AMG® High-Performance Braking System, and a RACESTART®function, make this Mercedes-AMG® a force to be reckoned with.
The 2018 AMG® C 63 S Sedan gets an upgraded biturbo V8 engine, which returns 503 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, zipping from 0 to 60 mph in a swift 3.9 seconds. This range-topper pulls out all the stops with an AMG® electronic limited-slip differential, an AMG® DYNAMIC SELECT® RACE mode, red-painted brake calipers, and 19-inch AMG® twin 5-spoke wheels.
The C-Class Coupes
Starts at $43,200
Starting at $43,200, the 2018 C 300 Coupe sports a 241-hp 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder engine, rated at 273 lb-ft of torque, 23 mpg in the city, and 30 mpg on the highway. The C 300 Coupe comes equipped with 4-wheel multi-link suspension with AGILITY CONTROL®, a panorama roof, LED headlamps, and a 7-inch infotainment screen.
Housing the C 300 configuration’s turbo engine, the 2018 C 300 4MATIC® Coupe also generates 241 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. This sporty four-seater, however, takes traction control to the next level with standard 4MATIC® all-wheel drive, and still manages to earn a 23 mpg city/29 mpg highway rating.
Powered by an AMG®-enhanced 3.0L biturbo V6 engine, the 2018 AMG® C 43 Coupe produces 362 hp and 384 lb-ft of torque. AMG® Performance 4MATIC® all-wheel drive gives this coupe an edge on any terrain, while the AMG®-enhanced 9G-TRONIC® transmission alternates between ECO, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, and Individual AMG® DYNAMIC SELECT® modes.
The 2018 AMG® C 63 Coupe gets an AMG® 4.0L biturbo V8 engine, which summons 469 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. Exteriorly, you’ll find 18-inch AMG® twin 5-spoke wheels and grey-painted brake calipers, while the cabin boasts sport front seats, brushed-metal pedals with rubber studs, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and an AMG® menu with RACETIMER®.
At the top of the heap rests the 2018 AMG® C 63 S Coupe, which is powered by an upgraded 503-hp biturbo V8 engine with 516 lb-ft of torque on tap. This ultra-sleek powerhouse bolts to 60 mph from a standstill in 3.8 seconds, and uses its AMG® DYNAMIC SELECT® RACE mode and RACESTART® function to optimize startup revs and traction during launching.
