2,353 Used Mercedes-Benz C-Class cars for sale

To keep up with the push for electrification, Mercedes-Benz released the fifth-generation C-Class with plug-in hybrid powertrain options. It also had advanced tech features, such as rear-axle steering. From a design standpoint, the new Mercedes-Benz showcased a longer front end and additional sloping to the A-pillars, with a shorter decklid.

The interior design looked very similar to the S-Class with a dashboard divided into an upper and a lower portion. Large screen displays are installed on the centre console, while fuel efficiency became the focus of the engine lineup.

With the release of a new generation, Mercedes-Benz made the C-Class sportier. An available aerodynamic bumper had swept-back headlights with rounded corners. There was also an AMG styling package with wider wheels and more aggressive bumpers.

A 2018 refresh added more value to the luxury car. New LED headlights were provided, and the grille was updated with a horizontal slat to highlight the three-pointed star. Along with some new engine options, the company also released an optional full-digital instrument panel and touch-sensitive controls.

The third-generation C-Class was designed to be more suitable for families. Dropping the previous headlight design with the rounded style, the new model had a square design instead. It also came on a wheelbase measuring two inches longer than its predecessor, creating more rear legroom.

A mild refresh was offered in 2011 with a completely new front fascia and an in-dash infotainment system to replace the pop-out screen that was previously available. An upgraded 7G-Tronic Plus automatic gearbox was also released to fix some problems with the previous model.
