Mercedes is on a bit of a roll, and it all started with the launch of the new S-Class flagship last year. The new C-Class takes more than a few cues from the S-Class. It's bigger, more luxurious, and more hi-tech than ever before.Â
The new C-Class is 80mm longer between the wheels than the old car and 95mm longer overall, and you really do feel that difference in the back. There's a lot more legroom, and headroom is decent as well.
Mercedes has made a lot of big claims about its new C-Class. It's not only bigger than ever before, but its also set to be the most refined, comfortable and efficient car in its class. Â If it can deliver on half of those promises, then it will be really impressive, and more than a match for the BMW 3 Series, and new Audi A4.Â
