2015 C - Class Sedan
C is for change. Year after year, the C‑Class has reached far ahead in performance, refinement and bold innovation — and put it all within reach. For 2015, a dramatically new C‑ Class fuses sporty, spacious and stylish like no car in its class. It can also protect you and connect you like no one else’s sedan — in any class. It’s far more than a changed C. More like a sea change. C 300 Sedan.

Your heart will race. Your gaze will linger. The Mercedes-Benz designs that people now regard as classics were all born as something strikingly modern. What unites them is also what distinguishes them from other cars: Balance, sculpture and details that start out ahead of their time, and stand up to the test of time.
Style is subjective. That is perhaps the only characteristic of design that most people can agree upon. But when the eyes behold the new C‑Class, consensus seems to form quickly on a number of its attributes. Part of that comes from the cohesiveness of the design itself — a flowing sculpture that expresses its athletic performance with confident elegance. Its long wheelbase, short overhangs and taut sheet metal — all of it lightweight aluminum — further assert its core values.

Exquisite appointments. Zero disappointments. No matter how closely you examine the new C‑Class cabin, there’s one thing you won’t find: compromise. From its wide, flowing console to its satin aluminum accents, it’s a multidimensional environment that’s functional, fresh and fun. The visual centerpiece of the C ‑Class cockpit is its cascading console. But the car’s center of attention is without a doubt its driver. Every control is optimized to fit, feel and function naturally.
Every car gets graded on a curve. Some drivers crave power. Others seek comfort. But nothing earns more points with a driver than how a car handles. What bonds the new C to the road is more than a highly capable chassis — it’s a legacy. The forefather of today’s C ‑Class premiered the world’s first multilink suspension. Each of its 10 links — five per rear wheel — controls a single dimension of motion — for handling that’s precise and refined, yet sporty and fun.

Performs better under pressure. There’s a reason that terms like pre-stressed, tempered and pressure-treated indicate superior performance. The same concept makes the C‑Class eager to outperform, too. Turbocharging, direct fuel injection and a newly available air suspension all convert higher pressure into response that’s quicker and sharper, yet seamless. So what you feel behind the wheel is 100% unstressed. Turbo power. An intercooled turbo boosts the inline-4 in the C 300 Sedan to 241 hp.
A mode for every mood. It’s like setting up your car in a video game, only far more rewarding because it’s real. With a few taps of a switch on the console, AGILITY SELECT® lets you choose among five drive programs for your C ‑ Class — from ECO to Sport+. Each setup reprofiles as many as four driving systems plus two efficiency factors. One mode lets you configure each element individually. It’s almost like having 120 cars in one. In reality, it’s having one car that always feels just right. Drive decider.
Custom car. In addition to the four preconfigured drive modes of AGILITY SELECT, you can use the touchpad controller and central screen to create a mode all your own. With up to 120 combinations, the Individual mode lets you sharpen handling while optimizing fuel economy, quicken acceleration while maximizing cabin comfort, or even enjoy full manual control of the paddle-shifted 7‑speed transmission.
Feast for the power-hungry. The class-devouring output of two all-new biturbo V-8s is but a first course for the new Mercedes-AMG C 63 Sedans. From their tantalizing thrust to the intoxicating snarl of their variable exhaust, they elevate 47 years of AMG passion to new heights. They’re also lighter and ideally balanced, brilliantly advancing a legacy rooted in championship racecars and thoroughbreds for the street.
Take your heart racing. Crowning the engine of each AMG C 63 is a plaque bearing the signature of the master artisan whose two hands carefully brought it to life. The same passion for precision courses throughout the vehicle, from its racing-derived powertrain, chassis and bodywork, to its exclusive instruments, controls and appointments. The impeccable intensity of AMG engineering and craftsmanship puts a world of performance at your feet — and more importantly, directly into your hands. AMG C 63 Sedan.

You never saw it coming, but your car did. For more than 60 years, Mercedes-Benz engineers have been predicting the future of driving safety by inventing it. From the patent for the crumple zone in 1951 to the first stability control 20 years ago, many of their breakthroughs have gone on to become the safety standards all automobiles must meet. Today’s C ‑Class doesn’t just imagine what’s next.
Looks out for danger, and sees you through it. With Intelligent Drive, Mercedes-Benz introduces the next generation of safer driving, and its breakthroughs are truly visionary. Multipurpose cameras, multirange radar and a multitude of sensors continually survey your surroundings. An integrated network of systems can alert you to danger from almost any direction — because they’re able to see more at once than the human eye.
Please see endnotes at back of brochure. A watchful eye if it’s time for a rest. By continually monitoring a variety of driving behaviors, ATTENTION ASSIST® can alert you if it detects signs of drowsiness on long trips. It measures more than 70 variables, starting in the first minutes of a drive, to establish a profile for the warning thresholds. If the system issues an alert, the car’s available COMAND® navigation can offer to help find a nearby rest area.11 Multilane multitaskers.

Fine art meets state-of-the-art. For Mercedes-Benz designers, balancing technology with tradition is a challenge to be cherished, not fought. It’s no secret that the passion for innovation has always been a pillar of the brand. But to be honest, it’s also a lot of fun to create something totally new — and not just how it looks, but in the way it connects with you. The sleek high-resolution displays are a perfect example, with animated menus that are logical and enjoyable to use.
New sensations for all of your senses. Luxury is a long-standing tradition at Mercedes-Benz, but it’s never been caught standing still. That’s because of another tradition that runs even deeper: Innovation. Ventilated front seats, ambient cabin lighting, and the Panorama roof were all introduced under the ThreePointed Star. But Mercedes-Benz engineers strive to satisfy more than your sense of indulgence. They want to enhance your actual well-being, too.
Eyes on the road ahead. An optional new Head-Up Display8 can project an 8"-wide high-resolution virtual image a few feet in front of the windshield. Color graphics show your speed and cruise-control settings, plus the next instruction for the available COMAND® navigation, all well within your natural field of vision. The display automatically adapts to ambient lighting conditions, but is further adjustable for brightness and height — with the position stored in the standard driver-seat memory.
Keeps you in touch, and in tune.

Please see endnotes at back of brochure. The user-friendly technology in the new C goes to great lengths to bring your world closer. It can get you to a new restaurant across town, and dodge traffic along the way.
Crisp instruments team with vividly illustrated color screens and a new touchpad controller to unify most every cockpit feature. Analog gauges flank a color multifunction display you can access from the thick 3‑spoke steering wheel. The 7" central screen presents entertainment and convenience features with clear, animated menus. Its sleek, freestanding design is at once easier to see and to see around. A classic analog clock is included with any of the wood trim options.
Rotary controller. COMAND’s clear, animated on‑screen menus feature an intuitive “carousel” layout. Turn the knob, and your selection options rotate exactly the same way, with tactile “clicks” adapting to the number of items in each menu. Touchpad. The new fingertip interface responds much like the tablet you use at home, but is easy to master by feel alone. You can swipe left–right or up–down to navigate maps and menus, and pinch to zoom on a map.
Volume and mute. A thumbwheel control lets the driver or front passenger adjust the volume of whatever mode is in use — audio, a phone call, or a navigation announcement. Push down on the thumbwheel to mute the sound, or to shut off the microphone during a call. The driver can also do all of this from the multifunction steering wheel. Easy to reach, simple to grasp.
