Overview

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan makes for an excellent contender in the compact sedan class. With a single trim on offer, the 219 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan has a base of MSRP $41,400, competing directly with the BMW 3 Series, Audi A4 and the Lexus IS 300. Only a 2.0L Turbocharged Inline-4 engine is offered, mated to a 9-Speed Automatic transmission. Together, they produce 255 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 5.7 seconds, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan maintains a combined fuel economy of 27 MPG. Mercedes-Benz offers the C-Class Coupe in 11 stunning colors, with the Obsidian Black a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The C 300 trim is the base variant in the C-Class lineup, which offers just the right amount of features without going overboard. We recommend pairing it up with the optional 4Matic for an additional $2,000 for enhanced driveability in any weather condition.
