Mercedes-Benz will present a new version of its successful C-Class at the Geneva Motor Show. The new version of the C-Class will be presented both as a standard production model and as a racing version which is specially designed for the German Touring Car Masters or DTM.

In connection with its Vision C 220 BLUETEC, Mercedes-Benz will also unveil its environmentally compatible BLUETEC technology in combination with a four-cylinder engine that provides a remarkable level of fuel economy that is considered to be a first time in the auto industry. And in terms of complying with the stern EURO 6 emission standard, Mercedes-Benz has guaranteed that all of their vehicles lineup for future production will pass the EURO 6 emission requirements. To give a taste of what to come the Vision C 220 BLUETEC with an out put of 125kW or 170 hp and a peak torque of 400 Nm, consumes only 5.5 liters of diesel per hundred kilometers.

Mercedes-Benz further stated that the production version of the new C-Class Saloon combines various product concepts that meet the needs and expectations of different types of customers. The SE, Sport, and Elegance are three individual models created by Mercedes-Benz that focuses on agility and comfort. To display the brand's exceptional refinement for which Mercedes is known for, all model variants will be equipped with only the up-to-date and sophisticated technology. And this includes the addition of the Agility Control package which has a situation-responsive shock absorber control, Pre-Safe preventive occupant protection system and the Intelligent Light System that comes with five different lighting functions. Buyers are also given the choice between a four- and a six-cylinder engine with up to 13 percent additional output than the previous model and provides up to six percent lower fuel consumption.

The blueprint of the new C-Class was derived from the modern Mercedes design concept which displays the technical superiority of cars bearing the famous star with firm lines and large, tranquil surfaces. The radiator grille is used as a distinguishing feature to position the model variants more clearly in the market. There are also three extended horizontal louvers and a large, Mercedes star positioned at the center that reflects the Sport Model as a traditional design feature of sporty Mercedes vehicles. And in keeping with the long tradition for quality vehicles, Mercedes-Benz has equipped its new generation C-Class with only high quality auto parts that the brand can provide like its Mercedes axle which is known for its durability and quality. The main function of Mercedes axles is to transmit the torque coming from the rotating shafts and gears to the wheels while bearing the entire weight of the vehicle plus cargo.
