2017 Mercedes-Benz C200

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz C200 (W205 Generation) is a compact executive luxury sedan that bridges refined styling, advanced onboard technology, and long-distance cruising comfort. Distinguished by its athletic proportions, sweeping character lines, prominent front grille with the central three-pointed star, multi-beam LED headlights, and 17-inch to 18-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels, the W205 generation adopts design cues from its larger S-Class and E-Class siblings. Popular regional trim lines include the Avantgarde, Exclusive, and the sport-styled AMG Line. Under the bonnet, the 2017 C200 is powered by Mercedes-Benz's 2.0-liter (1,991cc) M274 inline 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, producing 184 PS (181 hp / 135 kW) at 5,500 RPM and 300 Nm (221 lb-ft) of torque across a broad band from 1,200 to 4,000 RPM. Power is routed to the rear wheels (RWD) via a smooth 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters and dynamic select drive modes (Eco, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Individual). The suspension utilizes a front four-link setup and a rear multi-link configuration, with optional AIR BODY CONTROL multi-chamber air suspension available on higher trims. Inside, the cabin features a driver-centric cockpit finished with high-grade materials including open-pore wood, aluminum trim, or piano black accents. Equipment includes ARTICO man-made leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, a 7.0-inch or 8.4-inch COMAND infotainment display controlled via the central touchpad and rotary controller, dual-zone THERMATIC automatic climate control, ambient interior lighting, and a spacious trunk.
