2012 Facelifted Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the facelifted C-Class at the Detroit auto show.

The C-Class now features improved fuel-economy for the lineup, up to 31 percent, thanks to a stop/start system that is now standard on all variants. Mercedes-Benz is also promising most future C-Class automatics will come with the brand’s 7G-Tronic Plus transmission, also contributing to falling consumption and CO2 emissions for the range.

The C-Class comes in two trim/equipment levels – Elegance and Avantgarde. Options include the ‘COMAND’ online telematics system, which features Internet access and a function whereby a driver can download previously established routes from Google maps right into the navigation system.

As is always the case with Mercedes, the C-Class also comes with advanced safety functions such as are offered in the Driving Assistance package PLUS that which includes lane-departure warning and collision-avoiding brake assistance.
