Owner reviews

The salon does not have any comments at all - it is perfect, the monitor does not bother absolutely, I would say, this is special distinctive feature"Trick", you sit in the car and forget about all the problems. Who is embarrassed by eco-leather, apparently I didn’t just deal with it!

But as for the handling of the new C-Class W205 itself, after Toyota I was in ecstasy, the angle of rotation, turn, no words! Perfect! Brakes, acceleration dynamics, despite the small volume of 1.6 and 156 hp, with a turbo engine, Sport and Sport + modes for the city are excellent, starts quickly, drives well, holds the road perfectly, on the track in Sport mode it is a pleasure, despite suspension and large wheels. The car is not tough for me, I feel genuine joy and pleasure from driving.

Video review

The price / functionality ratio is very favorable, after I figured out all the settings and functions, I can safely say that this brand is head and shoulders above any other competitor.

The handling and maneuverability, especially in cramped conditions, is simply magical, despite rear drive in complex road conditions instills more confidence than many front-wheel drive competitors in its class.

The only constructive miscalculation in the new C-class can be the low heat generation of the engine, which at ambient temperatures below minus 25-30 degrees Celsius leads to the need for serious insulation of both the engine and the engine compartment.

Pavel Rashchupkin, review about Mercedes C-class 1.6 (156 hp) AT 2013

Great design, many convenient functions, especially the ECO mode, when there is little fuel, and the nearest gas station is not close or in a traffic jam - generally super. Excellent turning radius, due to not only turning, but also the inclination of the wheels. And there are a lot of convenient functions in the standard (small ones, you can't remember everything at once).

If serviced by the officials - well, it is somehow very expensive and I'm not sure if it's very high quality. Not the best soundproofing. Not the best handling. There is not enough space in the cabin, the car is not for large people.

Review of Mercedes-Benz C180 1.6 (156 hp) on automatic machine in 2013

Modern "tseshki" I really like the design, they are like a classic suit that will never go out of fashion. And everything is super inside. Beige leather, natural wood - stylish, but without unnecessary pathos. Mercedes knows a lot about this. In terms of equipment, everything is very good, 2.1 million were given for good reason. I really like multimedia with a touchpad, I haven't used such a feature before, it turned out to be convenient. The menu is intelligible, the resolution is at the level.

The C 250 rides even better than 211 "horses", the power reserve is enough everywhere. The operating modes of the engine and chassis can be changed, moreover, it is really felt. On "comfort" the car becomes soft, slight rolls appear. In sports modes, it's great to take turns. The computer monitors that I do not ram anyone. Once he saved me when I did not react to the ride in the city. The car itself slowed down, I only later realized what had happened ... or rather - what had not happened.

There are not many fly in the ointment in this barrel of honey, I have not yet driven tens of thousands. Stupid in winter keyless access- did not open the door the first time. True, this happened only a couple of times, and with the onset of heat, the problem went away, no breakdowns were found at the service. Rear-view mirrors are too small, it is good that there is a camera in stock. I do not like the standard ranflat tires, noisy and oak, I will change. In general, I am satisfied with the car, it is nice when the dream turns out to be exactly what I expected.

Sergey, review of Mercedes C-Class W205 2.0 (211 HP) AT 2014

Minus "Special Series" - modest and not optimal set options, although the required living wage is present: dual-zone climate control, full power accessories, heated front seats, front and rear parking sensors. To the selector automatic transmission, located on the steering column, got used to it quickly. Screen multimedia system looks like an alien element of the interior, but it must be admitted that it is very convenient to use it.

At the same time, in this configuration, it is not even possible to order heating of the steering wheel and windshield as an option. Even budget Hyundai solaris better equipped, not to mention business class cars.

It can be seen that they have saved a lot here. For example, in the driver's seat, the longitudinal adjustment is mechanical, and up and down - electrical. Passengers in the back row are not spoiled for comfort, there is not even a central armrest, not to mention any adjustments and heating.

But the C-class rides, as befits a thoroughbred Mercedes-Benz. Even in spite of the modest 2-liter engine and four-wheel drive, the dynamics are not bad. The suspension is a little stiff, but the handling is very good.

Noise isolation is mediocre, you can hear both the noise from the tires and from the motor when it is running on high revs... It is felt that when designing the car they fought for weight, the car weighs only 1.5 tons, so the dynamics are not bad even with weak engines, and the fuel consumption is moderate.

On the highway 8-9 liters, in the city about 11 per 100 km. But in the pursuit of weight reduction, in addition to equipment, they saved a lot here. This vehicle does not have spare wheel, even a stowaway is not provided and is very small fuel tank, its volume is only 41 liters.

On the Russian market the car was offered in two trim levels: "Special Series" and Sport AMG Line.

The more budgetary version of the all-wheel drive sports sedan C 43 AMG 4MATIC looks quite spirited - 4.7 seconds. The company has also prepared hybrid modifications. In the C 300 BlueTEC HYBRID, the 204 hp diesel is paired with a 27 hp electric motor. This tandem will reduce the declared fuel consumption to 3.9 liters per 100 km. Drive - traditionally on rear wheels... The C 350 E Plug-In Hybrid model (gasoline 211 hp turbo engine and 80 hp electric motor) is rechargeable from the household power supply, and the petrol consumption is declared at 2.4 l / 100 km. The volume of the tank is 41 or 66 liters.

The car can be equipped with dynamic headlights with LED Intelligent Light System. Nine airbags are responsible for the lives of the driver and passengers. The C-Class W205 scored very high in crash tests.

In the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class W205, a wide range of safety equipment, numerous modern technologies, striking design and comfort comparable to models with more high class... At the same time, the owners also note some weak spots C-Class in the 205th body: more whimsical and demanding engines for maintenance, rigid chassis (especially on standard tires ranflat), no spare wheel / stowaway, small standard tank.


The Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan has attracted the attention of analysts and motorists since its inception. The reason for this was the significant changes made both to the exterior of the car and to the control system. The car has become even more charismatic and the level of its comfort has increased.

One of the significant additions was the installation of the ATTENTION ASSIST system. It reads the driver's parameters and gives a signal if the level of attention to the road begins to decrease. New system The DISTRONIC PLUS cruise control is adaptable to the road surface and the driving style.

Massive air intakes, sharp lines of head optics and lighting fixtures give the Mercedes-Benz C-Klasse a predatory look. The exterior is fully consistent with the sporty characteristics of the car.
