The latest Mercedes-Benz C Class was launch in Lucknow with huge pomp and show at Hotel Hyatt Regency, Gomti Nagar. The new-generation Mercedes-Benz C-Class was launched in India on May 10, 2022. 

It is one of the most highly anticipated launches from the German luxury car manufacturer this year.The new-generation Mercedes-Benz C-Class is pegged to be a volume-spinner for the company and our time spent with the car definitely points in direction of car being a successful model in a segment that has tough competition from the likes of the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Jaguar XE and the Volvo S60. Mercedes has begun taking pre-bookings for the C-Class, with deliveries beginning from June 2022.

In fact, the manufacturing has commenced at the Mercedes’ plant in Chakan, Maharashtra. Here’s what we expect the prices to be like once the new C is launched.

The toppersonalities and influencers of Lucknow became part of this event.

Along with the exterior design, the S-Class inspired themes are more pronounced on the inside. The highlight is the new 11.9-inch vertical touchscreen which gets the latest generation of the MBUX based on NTG 7. It is a connected car, along with a bunch of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) features like active brake assist and active parking assist. The new C also gets a feature called ‘Car-to-X’, which is similar to a social network of cars, where Mercedes cars with MBUX can communicate with each other and share information on a real-time basis. The top-spec C 300d also gets Mercedes’ smart digital lights which use up to 1.3 million pixels for lighting and can be configured according to the direction of traffic. 

Like we said, Mercedes-Benz India will offer three engine options on the C-Class. The C 200 petrol, C 220d diesel and the most powerful engine, the C 300d. The sole petrol engine on offer is a 1.5-litre unit, while the diesel mills are 2.0-litre units. In addition, all three engine options get an integrated starter generator (ISG) with EQ Boost, which provides a significant 15 bhp of extra power and up to 200 Nm of extra torque.
