About the Mercedes Benz C Class

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class compact luxury saloon/wagon provides elegance and beauty while still being within reach of mid-income buyers.

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class also offers capable performance from its turbocharged four-cylinder engine and its smooth-shifting seven-speed automatic transmission. Compared to its Audi and BMW rivals, it offers competitive pricing and great value for money as a luxury car.

Common Imports to Kenya are Mercedes Benz C180, Mercedes Benz C200, Mercedes Benz C220,  Mercedes Benz c250, Mercedes Benz C300, Mercedes Benz C450, Mercedes Benz C43 and Mercedes Benz C63 AMG.

What are the main features of a Mercedes-Benz C-Class?

At the base level, the W205 C-Class has 17-inch alloy wheels, wipers, power-folding side mirrors, Bluetooth phone, audio connectivity, and a seven-inch infotainment system. The higher levels focus are more focused on performance, especially the AMG versions which offer twin-turbo V6/V8 engine options, adaptive tuned suspensions, and mechanical limited-slip differentials. As for safety, the standard features across the board include a forward collision warning, seven airbags, rear parking sensors, and adaptive cruise control. In some models, you can also get a Distronic Plus System which provides semi-autonomous traffic assistance. With this feature, the car can accelerate, decelerate or brake without you having to intervene (within certain limits).

How spacious is the Mercedes-Benz C-Class?

As expected, the long-wheelbase models of the W205 Mercedes-Benz C-Class provide a lot more rear legroom than the short-wheelbase models. That means large adults will have abundant space for their knees and elbows to endure long drives. The front rows of the C-Class are also adequate in all models. However, the entry and exit to the back seating may be problematic due to the aggressive door cut-lines and the roofline. The boot space in the W205 Mercedes-Benz C-Class saloon models is pegged at 490 liters when the rear seats are up, a bit larger than what is offered by its main rivals. This also expands to 1510 liters when the rear seats are folded down.

Is the Mercedes-Benz C-Class fuel efficient?

The W205 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is offered with a wide variety of petrol and diesel engines that vary in availability from market to market. The fuel economy of the petrol-powered C180 and C200 models is estimated at 18km/l and 17.5 km/l respectively, while that of the diesel-powered C180 BlueTEC and C 200 BlueTEC sits at approximately 23.8 km/l. This dispels the notion that all Mercedes-Benz C-Class models are fuel guzzlers. On the other end of the spectrum, the AMG C 63 and AMG C 63 S models deliver fuel economies of 12.1 km/l and 11.9 km/l respectively.

What is the ground clearance of a Mercedes-Benz C-Class/ Does the Mercedes-Benz C-Class have good ground clearance?

Mercedes-Benz has not equipped the C-Class to deal with harsh terrain, so it is not surprising the luxury compact sedan has a clearance of 118 mm. It is average considering competitors within the same class range between 108 and 158 mm. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class was intended for urban and suburban travel, so it would not be a good option for daily use in rugged locations.

Can you find spare parts for a used Mercedes-Benz C-Class in Kenya?

It should be easy to find spare parts for the Mercedes-Benz C-Class to the brand’s rich heritage in the country. Mercedes-Benz has operated in Kenya for several decades as the main luxury model provider. The C-Class is also one of the most popular Mercedes-Benz models indicating access to spare parts and repair shops. Considering the C-Class is a luxury model, the parts may be a bit expensive compared to other model parts.

Is the Mercedes-Benz C-Class a reliable car? Does it have good resale value?

Since its introduction to the market, the C-Class has had a reputation for reliability. When maintained well, it assures great service and performance. Though it may be a bit costly to perform maintenance compared to run-of-the-mill sedans, this is expected within its segment. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is also highly-priced, but the resale value does not steeply decrease due to the brand reputation.

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is the epitome of class and performance while not being too pricy. As a compact executive sedan, few options in the market can offer the same amenities. The features are a cut above what one would get in a typical sedan though the performance depends on what the buyer prefers. Those who prefer blistering speeds and responsiveness would appreciate the AMG model, which gives the same top-notch features but with a larger engine. The only weak point of the C-Class is the ground clearance, as it rides rather low. Regardless, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is a great choice, providing significant value for money, and it does not depreciate quickly.
