it’s the firm’s best-selling model and the Mercedes C-Class saloon impresses.

It has a tough act to follow since it is the carmaker’s best-selling model and the new Mercedes C-Class does enough to maintain its popularity.

There’s also a new estate version available with Mercedes selling more than 450,000 C Class models last year. The biggest market for sales is in China.

Now, the new look model is heading to our shores with a new design and equipment revamp.

Along with a new headlamp design there are also new colours for the body paint to choose from.

Mercedes C-Class offers the latest in safety and driving assistance systems

The new Mercedes C-Class also offers, as potential drivers would expect, the latest in safety and driving assistance systems.

It’s certainly an improvement on its predecessor which set the benchmark in many ways for its high standard of active safety systems.

Now, the C Class can drive semi-autonomously in some situations by monitoring the traffic around it; it does this by using its improved radar and camera systems to watch 500 metres ahead.

The new C Class also utilises map and navigation data for some of its assistance functions such as planning ahead for junctions, bends and roundabouts.

The centre console has an elegant flowing trim with the interior using Magma grey and black to good effect.

Drivers will also have a keyless-go starting function available as standard with the vehicle key also having a design makeover with drivers having a choice of three to choose from.

There’s also a multi-contour seat package available with improved lumbar support and side bolsters. The driver’s seat also has a massaging function.

Indeed, there’s a lot about the C Class that’s reminiscent of the impressive current Mercedes S Class with the option of a fully digital instrument display with a choice of three settings including progressive, sport and classic.

The new Mercedes C-Class will be available from August and a detailed specification and pricing will be unveiled in the coming months.
