FEATURES
The C-Class drives with a similar stateliness as its E-Class and S-Class brothers, but in smaller, nimbler form. While comfort and quiet are a priority, the C-Class is willing to hustle. In fact, the 2019 C-Class is respectably quick. Thanks to its bump in horsepower — from 241 to 255 — the freshened C300 does 0-60 mph in just 5.7 seconds. In addition to being fleet, the C-Class is also remarkably stable and smooth. In our testing on the autobahns of Germany, the 2019 Mercedes C-Class happily cruised along at 100 mph, and continued higher to its governed speed limit about 30 mph beyond that. We also like this use of Mercedes’ 9-speed automatic transmission, which is smoother than those we’ve experienced in other vehicles. The C-Class also comes standard with a drive-mode selector, which enables you to optimize the car for comfort, sporty driving or higher efficiency. And it works. Changing settings changes the nature of the car, from the higher degree of dynamism associated with its BMW 3 Series archrival to the steady-state relaxed cruising of, well, a Mercedes-Benz. – KBB.com
