Bridging that gap in price and performance is the Mercedes-AMG C43 at around $52,000, although you’ll still need to spring $2,880 for leather upholstery. Airmatic suspension adds $1,190 to the C300’s premium, and if you’re looking for features you never knew you needed, you’ll want the cabin fragrance system for $350. The Burmester surround sound system is standard on more expensive models and optional on the base C300. Coupe and convertible models now come standard with the Premium package, which adds the Burmester surround sound system and 64-color interior ambient lighting. Originally sold as a sedan, the C-Class is now also available as a coupe and soft-top convertible. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz C-Class belongs to a generation that began with the 2015 model year. The reliability of a specific vehicle may vary depending on its maintenance and driving history, model year, trim, and features. Prior to this model year, that display size was standard in the coupe and convertible, while the sedan had a 7-inch screen. Lovely. Few other words suffice when it comes to describing the 2017 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan and coupe interiors, especially on the heels of the former generation, which had a cold, clinical demeanor.
The C-Class also comes standard with forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, driver attention monitoring, blind spot monitoring, and a rearview camera. Standard active driver assistance features include forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring, and crosswind assist. It also includes active blind spot monitoring, which steers you back into your lane when another car is approaching on your side. Its steering is near telepathic, which is the opposite of the standard car and its brakes, particularly the optional carbon ceramic front pads, offer plenty of stopping power. AMG ceramic composite front brakes are available for $5,450. As is becoming more commonplace, the levers that release the rear seatbacks are in the trunk, making it easy to release the seatbacks without leaving the cargo area. Coupe models have slightly less cargo space at 10.5 cubic feet. In the sedan, adult passengers should have adequate room in the second row. Those body styles also only have two doors, which can make getting into and out of the second row difficult. That's also true for the AMG models, which have a stiffer ride. The AMG C 43 is all-wheel-drive-only, while AMG C 63 models only come with rear-wheel drive.

• Leather Seating Package - The Leather Seating package for the 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 adds leather upholstery, and passenger's seat memory. At first glance, the Mercedes C-Class for 2017 bears a strong resemblance to the E-Class and S-Class - and yes, it does borrow the aggressive front grilles, sweeping character lines, and taut rear ends. The Parking Assistance package costs $1,150 and includes rear cross traffic alert, a surround-view parking camera system, automatic parking assist, and front and rear parking sensors.

Premium 4 adds a host of active safety and collision mitigation and avoidance features, as well as adaptive cruise control, a cabin air purification and fragrance system, and cornering headlamps with automatic high beams.
