Features
Performance & Handling
3.0L V-6 engine
Delivering 228 horsepower, the 3.0-liter dual overhead cam (DOHC) V-6 in the C300 4MATIC features continually variable adjustment of all 24 valves for smooth idling, rich midrange torque, and high-rpm punch. An innovative intake system varies the path and flow rate of incoming air. These features make this engine incredibly flexible, allowing it to provide more than 85 percent of its 221 lb-ft of peak torque from as low as 1,500 rpm while still supplying an invigorating redline rush.
7-speed automatic transmission
The industry's first 7-speed automatic transmission remains one of the most versatile automatics on the market. A wide range of closely spaced gear ratios delivers the ideal response for virtually every driving situation, for smooth cruising, quick acceleration, and thanks to two overdrive ratios, better highway fuel efficiency. Adaptive logic monitors your driving style and adjusts its shift points to match, while Touch Shift control offers manual-style shifting enjoyment anytime you want it.
4MATIC all-wheel drive
In any season or road condition, 4MATIC™ all-wheel drive adds to your confidence and control. Always engaged and optimizing torque to every wheel, 4MATIC integrates with our standard Electronic Stability Program (ESP®) for maximum effectiveness in corners and slippery conditions. It also incorporates our 4-wheel Electronic Traction System (4-ETS). (Disclaimer)
4-wheel Electronic Traction System (4-ETS)
For optimum traction, even in slippery conditions, 4MATIC all-wheel drive incorporates our advanced 4-wheel Electronic Traction System. 4-ETS can help get you going even if three wheels lose their grip. Sensors at each wheel monitor traction based on wheel speeds. If one or more wheels start to slip, 4-ETS individually brakes the slipping wheels to maintain the flow of torque to the wheels with grip. Even if only one wheel has grip, 4-ETS can help get you going and stay in control. (Disclaimer)
Lowered, sport-tuned suspension
C-Class Sport Sedans boast firmer coil springs and shock absorbers, as well as a lowered ride height, for sharper handling response and a more aggressive stance.
AGILITY CONTROL suspension
Engineered specifically for performance driving, AGILITY CONTROL automatically adjusts the individual shock absorbers based on the road surface and the driver's current driving style. Valving inside each shock absorber automatically firms up during stronger body motions for sharper handling feedback and stability, and reduces the damping rates during gentler motions for a smoother, more composed ride.
Brake Assist
Brake Assist senses emergency braking via the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal and immediately applies maximum available power boost. Brake Assist can potentially reduce the overall stopping distance by eliminating the delay caused by a common human tendency not to brake hard enough, soon enough. Letting up on the brake pedal releases Brake Assist. (Disclaimer)
Advanced braking systems
Powerful 4-wheel disc brakes feature a number of advances. If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs for more immediate response when you apply the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically applies the brakes just enough to sweep water build-up from the discs. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a HOLD feature can make long red lights or stopped traffic a little easier. (Disclaimer)
Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
This safety breakthrough first introduced by Mercedes-Benz continually monitors your driving inputs and the vehicle's motion to help keep it going in your intended direction, especially in corners and during evasive maneuvers. If it detects wheelspin, severe understeer (plowing), or oversteer (fishtailing), ESP can brake individual wheels and reduce engine power to help bring the vehicle under control. (Disclaimer)
Design
Sport Sedan styling
Athletically designed to express its performance soul, the C300 4MATIC Sport Sedan boasts aerodynamic lower bodywork in the form of an aggressive front apron with mesh air intakes, a pair of sculpted side sills, and a deep rear valance. The bold grille that places the Three-Pointed Star front and center is the unmistakable signature of a sporting Mercedes-Benz.
Sport cockpit styling
The well-appointed cockpit of the C300 4MATIC Sport Sedan comes outfitted with a combination of features and finishes selected specifically to bring out its competitive streak. A 3-spoke steering wheel affords a clear view of a trio of gauges recessed deeply within silver surrounds. Aluminum trim adds modern flair to a cabin trimmed in a high-contrast upholstery color scheme and a black roof liner. And the rubber-studded aluminum sport pedals simply beg to be put to good use.
17-inch twin 5-spoke wheels
The standard 17-inch alloy wheels feature five twin spokes and a luminous silver finish. Staggered in width, the rear wheels and tires are wider than the fronts, for greater acceleration grip without sacrificing crisp steering feedback. (Disclaimer)
Optional
18-inch twin 5-spoke AMG wheels
Optional 18-inch AMG alloy wheels feature five pairs of thin spokes that call attention to their light weight and rigidity. Staggered in width, the rear wheels and tires are wider than the fronts, for greater acceleration grip without sacrificing crisp steering feedback. (Disclaimer)
$1,040
Optional
18-inch 7-spoke AMG wheels
With seven flat, tapered spokes, these optional 18-inch alloy wheels call out the racing heritage of AMG. Staggered in width, the rear wheels and tires are wider than the fronts, for greater acceleration grip without sacrificing crisp steering feedback. (Disclaimer)
$1,040
3-spoke multifunction steering wheel
The C-Class sport steering wheel features pronounced contours, thick padding and a Premium leather-wrapped rim with perforated side grips, putting the delights of precise handling literally in the driver's hands. Convenient multifunction controls do likewise while operating the most frequently needed vehicle functions. Raised thumbrests are placed at the ideal "10 and 2 o'clock" positions, while the racing-inspired flat-bottom design facilitates ingress and egress. (Disclaimer)
Aluminum trim
Crisp, modern aluminum trim on the console, dash and doors adds to the performance feel of the C-Class Sport Sedans.
Optional
Burl Walnut wood trim
Hand-polished Burl Walnut wood, prized for its rich color and distinctive grain patterns, graces the console, dash and doors, lending the cockpit a further air of refinement.
$325

Available in
NECK-PRO front head restraints
In the case of a rear impact exceeding a preset threshold, NECK-PRO front head restraints move forward and slightly upward, reducing the distance between the head restraints and the heads of front-seat occupants. This action helps to reduce the possibility or severity of whiplash-type neck injuries.
Seat belt technology
Arguably our most important passive safety feature, all four outboard 3-point seat belts are equipped with Emergency Tensioning Devices (ETDs) and belt force limiters. If a collision exceeds a preset threshold, ETDs instantly remove slack from the seat belts. Belt force limiters allow a slight amount of give in the ETD-equipped seat belts, to reduce the peak seat-belt forces on the occupant.
Body structure
A system of interconnected elements work together to help protect the occupants in a collision. High-strength/low-alloy (HSLA) and ultra-high-strength steel are used in critical areas such as the roof pillars, floor and roof crossmembers, door beams and various reinforcements throughout the body. Advanced front and rear crumple zones deform progressively to help absorb the energy of an impact, while the front bulkhead helps channel some impact forces under, over, and around the cabin.
Optional

Brakes, Wheels, and Tires
Brakes
| Adaptive Brakes | Adaptive Braking technology integrates a suite of advances. If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs for more immediate response when you apply the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically applies the brakes just enough to sweep water build-up from the discs. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a HOLD feature can make long red lights or stopped traffic a little easier.[*5] |

| Brake Assist | Brake Assist senses emergency braking via the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal and immediately applies maximum available power boost. Brake Assist can potentially reduce the overall stopping distance by eliminating the delay caused by a common human tendency not to brake hard enough, soon enough. Letting up on the brake pedal releases Brake Assist.[*5] |
| Antilock Braking System (ABS) | Enjoy the strong, controlled stopping power of dual-circuit power-assisted 4-wheel disc brakes, backed by an Antilock Braking System (ABS). ABS senses impending wheel lockup under heavy braking and pumps the front brakes individually or the rear brakes together. This intelligent system can pump the brakes as needed up to 30 times per second, to prevent lockup and preserve the driver's steering ability.[*5] |

| 11-way air bag protection | An advanced system of 9 air bags offers 11-way occupant protection. Dual two-stage front air bags, front side-impact air bags, front pelvic air bags, a driver's knee air bag, and window curtain air bags for both seating rows are standard.[*6] |
|---|---|
| Rear side-impact air bags | In addition to the 9 standard air bags in the C250 Sport Sedan, side-impact air bags are optionally available for each outboard rear seating position.[*6] |
| NECK-PRO front head restraints | In the case of a rear impact exceeding a preset threshold, NECK-PRO front head restraints move forward and slightly upward, reducing the distance between the head restraints and the heads of front-seat occupants. This action helps to reduce the possibility or severity of whiplash-type neck injuries. |
| Seat belt technology | Arguably our most important passive safety feature, all four outboard 3-point seat belts are equipped with Emergency Tensioning Devices (ETDs) and belt force limiters. If a collision exceeds a preset threshold, ETDs instantly remove slack from the seat belts. Belt force limiters allow a slight amount of give in the ETD-equipped seat belts, to reduce the peak seat-belt forces on the occupant. |
Safety Features
| ATTENTION ASSIST | The first system of its kind, ATTENTION ASSIST continuously monitors different parameters of driving behavior, and can automatically alert the driver with both visual and audible warnings if it detects signs of drowsiness on long trips.[*7] |
|---|---|
| Blind Spot Assist | When the vehicle is traveling above approximately 20 mph, this system uses radar technology to sense when a vehicle enters the blind-spot area. Blind Spot Assist then automatically alerts the driver via an illuminated red icon in the appropriate side mirror. The system also gives an audible warning if the driver activates a turn signal while a vehicle is detected in the blind spot.[*8] |
| Lane Keeping Assist | With technology that monitors ordinary road markings, Lane Keeping Assist helps detect unintended drifting off-course, and alerts the driver by vibrating the steering wheel.[*7] |
| PARKTRONIC with Parking Guidance | Parking Guidance helps you size up parallel-parking spaces as you drive by, using sensors in the bumper to determine if available spots can accommodate your vehicle. It then displays steering instructions to help you find your way into it. During any low-speed maneuver, PARKTRONIC's ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers detect nearby objects within the system's field of view. Audible signals and illuminated displays in the cabin help you navigate tight spaces with confidence. |
| Mercedes-Benz mbrace | From your car, online or via the mbrace Mobile Application on your compatible smartphone, mbrace® helps keep you connected with nearly 20 different security, destination planning and convenience services. Combining advanced technology with 24-hour support from helpful experts, two available service packages can help you plan a trip, remember where you parked, or even handle an unexpected emergency. Every new Mercedes-Benz equipped with mbrace includes a complimentary 6-month trial subscription.[*9,*10,*11] |

Certified Mercedes-Benz Technicians are required to participate in ongoing training, assuring that they master the use of state-of-the-art diagnostics, tools, and equipment to properly repair your Mercedes-Benz.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz replacement parts and accessories installed by certified technicians preserve the performance and integrity of your vehicle. As well, keeping it genuine with Mercedes-Benz parts will help maintain your vehicle's residual value.
When you visit your local Mercedes-Benz dealership, their service staff can perform a detailed, multi-point inspection to address your concerns and maintain your vehicle's performance and appearance.
No one understands and cares for your Mercedes Benz better than Mercedes-Benz.
Pre-Paid Maintenance
No one can maintain a Mercedes-Benz like Mercedes-Benz
- It's the simple and convenient way to prepay for required services, so you'll know that critical maintenance needs are taken care of right from the start.
- Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance allows you to lock in the costs of these required services before your first service visit or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first.- So you'll have the convenience of paying for maintenance in advance.
- Save up to 30% versus "purchasing maintenance as you go* "
- Plus, purchasing a Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance plan does not confine you to only one dealership for your service needs. The plan follows you, so if you require service when you´re on the road - or if you relocate - your plan will be honored at any authorized participating Mercedes-Benz dealer.
Overview
It's extremely important for the long-term health of your Mercedes-Benz, and the safety of you and your passengers, that you have your Mercedes-Benz serviced according to its regular maintenance intervals. Check your maintenance manual or consult your authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer for specific maintenance requirements and recommendations.
For all Mercedes-Benz vehicles we recommend using an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer for your service needs. At a Mercedes-Benz Dealership you will get the most up-to-date expertise on the components that keep you safe on the road, like the braking and electrical systems, fluid levels, right down to the condition of your tires — which are your connections to the road.
Required Vehicle Maintenance for Model Year 2009 and newer
As of model year 2009, Mercedes-Benz vehicles follow a maintenance schedule of 10,000-mile or 12-month intervals, whichever occurs first. Required maintenance is the routine service necessary to keep your vehicle in peak operating condition, and to help avoid damage to your vehicle. For all other model years, refer to your maintenance manual for specific maintenance schedule information.
When you take your Mercedes-Benz to an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer for routine maintenance, our technicians use specialized tools, instruments, Genuine Mercedes-Benz Parts, and unmatched technical training to service your vehicle. They follow your maintenance manual in detail to ensure that everything is checked on schedule.
Your Mercedes-Benz Maintenance Booklet specifies exactly what services your Mercedes-Benz technician will perform at each routine service visit.
Recommended Maintenance for Model Year 2009 and newer
In addition to regular required maintenance, recommended service work is intended to provide you with the flexibility to choose the additional maintenance work performed on your vehicle, based on its needs or recommendations from your authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer.
Beyond any specific recommendations you receive from your Mercedes-Benz technician, you should check the following items regularly and prior to any long trip:
- Engine oil level
- Coolant level
- Brake system fluid level (If brake fluid needs to be added, see an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer to determine the cause.)
- Windshield washing system (Add washer fluid mixed with Mercedes-Benz windshield washer solvent/concentrate, test function, and check wiper blades.)
- Tire pressure (Check at least every other week.)
If applicable to your vehicle's configuration, tire rotation should be performed in accordance with the recommended intervals, or sooner at the first signs of irregular (uneven) tread wear. A tire inspection will help determine the need for a tire rotation which may occur at least once between regular Mercedes-Benz maintenance intervals. Check with your authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership for specific recommendations.
The first rotation inspection occurring at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership at any time up to 5,000 miles is provided at no charge.*
The required maintenance intervals have been determined based on normal operating conditions. Any severe operating conditions may call for more frequent replacement of items such as interior filters, spark plugs, coolant, tires, etc. Checking these items regularly and bringing your vehicle in for service appointments earlier than required, if necessary, will help keep your Mercedes-Benz in top condition.
* In accordance with or as otherwise recommended by your tire manufacturer's instructions. Rotation applies only to vehicles without staggered-width tires. Vehicles with staggered-width tires require inspection instead of rotation. Tires should be rotated/inspected at least once between each service visit. See your Service Manager for details regarding your vehicle's tires.
Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance
- Protect your investment with Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance starting at just $610 for 2 years or 20,000 miles, whichever comes first.
- By purchasing an affordable Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance plan when you purchase your vehicle, you can build the cost into your monthly payment - giving you a lot more convenience for as little as $10/month. Or you can choose to prepay upfront and in full. The plan may be purchased at any time prior to your first service visit or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first

You invested in Mercedes-Benz. Now Mercedes-Benz has your back.

For added protection, the Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty offers continued peace of mind with prolonged coverage tailored to your needs.
To help ensure that coverage under your warranty right is never affected, it is highly recommended that you bring your Mercedes-Benz to an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership for all your service and repair needs, starting with regular maintenance at the intervals outlined in your Maintenance Booklet.

And because this Extended Limited Warranty is a product fully backed by Mercedes-Benz, you can have complete confidence that it offers a premium level of coverage when compared to after market alternatives.
Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty offers several term options so you can choose the coverage that best suits your needs.

Additionally, Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty coverage may be purchased at any time prior to the expiration of your original New Vehicle Limited Warranty.*
Payment options are similarly flexible: you may choose to pre-pay the entire Extended Limited Warranty amount up-front, or include the cost in your monthly financing payments. Your dealer can work with you to help determine the approach that will best fit your needs.
With Extended Limited Warranty there's no complicated paperwork to process, no deductibles and no hassles.
As a Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty customer, you will enjoy the uncommon level of service and care that can only be found at authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealerships.

provides vehicle coverage for another 12 months or up to 100,000 total accumulated miles, whichever comes first. For those Certified Pre-Owned vehicles no longer covered by the New Vehicle Warranty, the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty takes effect at the time of delivery.
This coverage extends to include most of the major components of engine and powertrain, steering, suspension, brakes (excluding wear of discs and pads), electrical system, climate control system, and more. For specific coverage, please see your Mercedes-Benz Dealer for a copy of the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty.

Disclaimer
*While the vehicle owner may elect to have repairs (collision damage repair or paint work) performed by any automotive body repair establishment or individual, damage or malfunctions caused by body repairs not performed in accordance with Mercedes-Benz specified repair procedures or otherwise not properly performed are not covered by the Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited Warranty and may cause the car to not perform as originally designed in a subsequent collision to the repaired area.
Small Repairs
To own a Mercedes-Benz is to take pride in its timeless design and effortless style. But regardless of the care you take in maintaining the appearance of your vehicle, sometimes damage can´t be avoided. Whether it's a rock chip, a spill, a sharp object piercing the interior, a wheel making contact with the curb, or seasonal hazards like road grime or salt attacking your rims, Mercedes-Benz has the solution.
Your Mercedes-Benz Dealership or Certified Collision Center can offer minor repairs quickly, easily, and cost effectively, often while you wait.
Wheels
Few parts of your vehicle are as readily noticed as the alloy rims. Unfortunately, even the most stunning wheels are susceptible to damage.
If winter road salt or a bump against the curb has left your rims looking less than spectacular, your Mercedes-Benz dealership or Certified Collision Facility has the technology to make the finish look just like new at a fraction of the cost of a new rim. Please note that not all wheel damage can be repaired, depending on severity.
Sticks and Stones
When a stone makes contact with your windshield it can create significant appearance and safety implications, especially if left untreated. To avoid replacing the entire windshield, Mercedes-Benz Dealerships and Certified Collision Centers can fix cracks and stone chips quickly using resins to seal the glass, and polish to take care of pitting.
Keep in mind that this system is only intended to repair minor problems outside of the driver´s field of vision, and is not meant to take care of an issue that has failed a state safety inspection program. Interior Repairs Leather or MB-Tex seating, polished wood trim, aluminum accents, ceiling fabric or carpet - they're all susceptible to daily wear and tear or surface contamination.
Minor scratches, blemishes, and other superficial damage to your vehicle´s interior can be repaired at your Mercedes-Benz Dealership or Certified Collision Facility, with the product expertise needed to determine the best repair tools and materials for the job.
