Modellpflege: Update statt Abstellgleis: Mercedes frischt C-Klasse auf
Sie haben zwar gerade erst eine neue Generation präsentiert. Aber weil noch nicht jeder reif für deren Elektroantrieb ist, wird jetzt auch die aktuelle Mercedes C-Klasse noch einmal frisch gemacht.
Mercedes is refreshing its long-standing C-Class model, even as it brings out a brand new, fully electric version of the mid-size sedan. The update, aimed at those who still want to stick with the older version, features a more prominent hood ornament and revamped headlights. Customers can now order the sedan and wagon versions of the refreshed C-Class, with delivery expected in the fall. Prices start at €48,844.
For the revamped cockpit, Mercedes has updated the operating system to include a KI-powered digital assistant and OTA (over-the-air) software updates. At the same time, they are dialing back on the high-tech features and focusing more on tactile elements, such as a return to a traditional volume knob for the volume control and the reduction of electronic sensor fields.
Under the hood, Mercedes highlights modernized four-cylinder engines that now feature electric assistance, with all six engine options being mildly hybridized. The three gasoline engines and two now Bio-fuel eligible diesel engines have mild hybridization. The manufacturer claims the powertrain lineup goes from the C 200 with a 130 kW/177 PS turbocharged four-cylinder engine to the C 400e electric hybrid, equipped with a 290 kW/395 PS electric motor.
