Latest spy pictures reveal an evolutionary look for the all-new Mercedes C-Class, due later this year
A new Mercedes C-Class is on the way, and judging by the development of these prototypes, its debut could be at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.
These shots reveal there aren’t too many surprises in store when it comes to the styling. The C-Class shape is still recognisable, but expect to see a new grille and CLA-inspired rear lights.
Underneath the bonnet, we’re expecting many of the four-cylinder engines to be carried over. The range will likely kick off with a 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine, plus there’ll be the usual diesel options and a V6 model may be offered at the top of the line-up.
Expect to see big updates to the amount of safety tech onboard, though, with the new C-Class borrowing systems from the current E-Class. This includes cameras that can detect traffic at junctions, and the ability to steer itself in traffic jams.
Mercedes will offer a C63 AMG variant following the release of the standard car. While the current AMG model uses a 6.3-litre V8 engine, the new performance model will probably use a downsized 5.5-litre twin-turbo engine with around 450bhp.
