Why it stands out

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class stands out as a compact luxury car that blends upscale presentation with strong performance and a broad range of body styles. For this generation, Mercedes gave the C-Class a pseudo fastback shape and dramatic front and rear styling inspired by the 2014 W222 S-Class, while also making the car 100 kilograms lighter than before. It remained rear-wheel drive by design, with 4Matic all-wheel drive optional, and the lineup included sedan, coupe, and cabriolet body styles. In Canada, a wagon was also offered beginning in 2018.

The 2018 C-Class also offers a well-rounded mix of power, technology, and safety. The C 300 used a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with 241 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque, and the higher-spec sedan was the C 400 with a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 making 329 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. Inside, the cabin drew inspiration from the W222 S-Class, with finer materials, chrome and wood detailing, and a modest 7-inch touchscreen as standard equipment, while an 8.4-inch unit was optional and later standard. Mercedes also included basic safety equipment such as forward automatic emergency braking and daytime running lights, and the car earned “Top Safety Pick+” designations from IIHS in four out of the seven years it was on sale.

For buyers, the 2018 model has plenty of appeal because it feels luxurious without giving up everyday usability. The four-door has about average room for the class, with 894 mm of rear legroom, but the trunk is not huge at 356 litres in the sedan and as little as 250 litres in the convertible. Reliability is more of a mixed point, though, and owner complaints in this generation centre on electrical system issues and problems with the infotainment and display screens. Even so, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class remains attractive for shoppers who want style, performance, and a premium cabin in a relatively attainable package.
