Recently, the car emperor learned from the Mercedes-Benz official that the new Mercedes-Benz C-class coupe was put on the market, launching C 200 and C 260 models, priced at 346,800 yuan and 365,000 yuan respectively, of which the C 260 price was reduced by 1800 yuan, the mobile phone wireless charging configuration was changed to optional (the value was exactly 1800 yuan), and the price of the C 200 remained unchanged. It should be noted that the Mercedes-Benz C-Class coupe currently on sale (code name C205) is still a derivative of the previous generation of Mercedes-Benz C-Class, not a coupe version of the new generation of Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedans that have been listed.

As a small remodeled model, the overall design of the exterior and interior of the new car will not change. At present, the Mercedes-Benz C-class coupe can still play in terms of appearance, which adopts the shape of a two-door hard-top coupe, with 18-inch rims, LED far and near headlights, borderless doors, panoramic sunroofs and other configurations.
In the interior part, under the background of Mercedes-Benz's new long-wheelbase C-class sedan, the interior design of the Mercedes-Benz C-class coupe is a little behind. But fortunately, its function performance is good, with a standard 12.3-inch LCD dashboard and a 10.25-inch central display screen, supporting the commonly used Apple CarPlay, Baidu CarLife mobile phone interconnection function, Internet of Vehicles and so on. The more obvious configuration change is that the front wireless charging function of the C 260 model has been changed from standard to optional.
In terms of power, the new model is still equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder turbocharged engine, the C 200 model has a maximum engine power of 115 kW and a peak torque of 250 Nm, the C 260 model has a maximum engine power of 135 kW and a peak torque of 280 Nm, and also matches a 48-volt light hybrid system, both of which match the 9-stop hand automatic transmission, and the vehicle adopts a front-mounted rear-drive layout.
