Mercedes-Benz India launches C220 CDI at Rs 39.9 lakh
Merc C-class diesel available in two trims; locally assembled C-class petrol also launched.
Mercedes-Benz India has launched the diesel version of its C-class luxury sedan, C 220 CDI, in India starting at Rs 39.9 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
The C 220 CDI, available in two trims — Style and Avantgarde — is powered by a 2.1-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that develops 168bhp. The C-class diesel will initially be brought into the country as a CBU import with local assembly expected to commence later this year.
In terms of features, the top Avantgarde trim comes equipped with a high-resolution 8.4-inch screen for its COMAND infotainment computer, satellite navigation, LED ambient cabin lighting with three selectable colours, push-button start, a panoramic sunroof and a 13-speaker Burmester audio system. It also gets the basics like three-zone auto climate control, rear-view camera and Bluetooth connectivity.
The Mercedes C 220 CDI targets the Audi A4 and the BMW 3-series.
Locally assembled C-class petrol introduced
Mercedes has also introduced the locally assembled version of the C-class petrol at Rs 40.9 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The C 200 was priced the same when launched last year in CBU form. However, this was prior to the excise duty exemption rollback. Currently, the CBU C-class petrol is priced at Rs 41.6 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
