Overview

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 Sedanmakes for an excellent contender in the compact sedan segment. With just a single trim on offer, the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 Sedan retails for an MSRP of $55,250 competing directly with the Jaguar XE 3.0t S Sedan, Infiniti Q50 RED SPORT 400 Sedan and the Audi S4. Only a 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 engine is offered, mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 384 horsepower and 385 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 4.1 seconds, the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 Sedan maintains a combined fuel economy of 22 MPG. Mercedes-Benz offers the AMG C 43 Sedan Coupe in 11 stunning colors, with the Polar White being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

With only one trim, we are left with very few options. Despite that, the AMG C 43 offers a range of standard features which are excellent for daily commuting needs. However, we strongly recommend getting the Driver Assistance Package that adds up features like the Active Lane Change Assist, Route-Based Speed Adaptation, Speed Limit Assist, Driver Assistance Package for a price of $1800.
