Our best look yet at the new C Class Mercedes model

In Germany this coming September, Mercedes Benz is expected to reveal their brand new C Class model, which will go on sale later this year. 

It was rumoured that a host of changes were to be made to the new C Class. We have now seen images of the brand new model, which outlines some of the significant changes coming along with the car. 

Mercedes know that the C Class is one of their most popular vehicles ranges on offer right now, and with more than twenty years of success for the range, the brand will be looking to make it even more exciting than ever before.

How do Mercedes plan to appeal to more customers with the C Class? 

So one of the significant areas that the brand has focused on is changes made to the bodywork design of the car. The spy pictures of the new design indicate the headlights have been designed to be much more swept back. 

The bonnet has been made just a little more sloping. Speaking of sloping, this is something that the roofline of the car does exceptionally well. This blends in smoothly to the back window. 

However, the testing images of the new model revealed a heavily disguised rear end. This may hint that some changes will occur with the taillight design, and revised back bumpers could also very much be on the cards. 

Engines have not been announced yet; however, turbocharged engines in both petrol and diesel forms are expected to reveal the car, much like those used in the current C Class model.

The likes of the 3 Series from BMW and the Jaguar XE are considered to be two of the top sources of competition for the current C Class model and the Audi A4. 

When this new model goes on sale later this year, we expect this to remain very much the case, and it could prove to be that added advantage for the C Class when it comes to being one of the best executive style cars amongst this group.

Is the price of the new Mercedes C Class expected to rise?

With a range of changes being made to the new C Class, and the possible addition of a new hybrid powertrain, the cost of the new C Class may rise quite a bit. To now, Mercedes Benz has not commented. 

Will it all be worth it? We shall see when the new Mercedes Benz C Class is launched shortly.
