The Mercedes C-Class has been given an update for 2019 to keep it up to speed with the usual suspects in the compact executive class, namely the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Jaguar XE and Alfa Romeo Giulia. Mercedes' best-selling model has been given some minor styling tweaks and extra tech - Ginny got behind the wheel to see what difference the changes have made and how the C-Class compares with the competition.

So if you would like to promote a car, or anything, you need to point out all good sides. If comparing to something else, dont point out whats better on other one, point out whats better on the one you try to sell and set its own personality. Never fall on what sonething else has that the one you sell doesnt.

@sakichugouken2474 5 лет назад

Man, that review sounded really so scripted! Repeated just every other UK review (see carwow) said about this car. I rented the C200 for a weekend in Germany. Didn't find it particularly comfortable over bumps. Don't know if the air suspension makes things that much smoother. As VW CC driver, I didn't find the c class much better over bumps, if not worse which was disappointing, driving for the first time a Mercedes saloon. I guess you need to step up to E class to get that so called Mercedes comfort. Otherwise many saloons on the market offer equivalent comfort to the c class, even without a BMW, Audi badge. I very much liked the chunked and direct steering in the merc, which I should give credit.

Just feels to me the C class makes a lot of sense if you like a posh car brand that isn't too unreliable and costly to run. A few less gadgets means a few less things to go wrong. Can't help thinking this car is exceptionally boring, the review seems to focus on the nice interior and not much else it's like she wasn't interested in driving it at all.

Also If you want a posh brand that is reliable might want to look at Lexus.

As the parts are very very expensive.

A dazzling array of tech, hugely updated and closely resembling it's bigger brother the S-Class on the interior...? NO! Why have Mercedes insisted on continuing to stick with that 'after market' add on tablet attached to the dashboard when they could have rolled out the beautiful glass dashboard that's in the A, E and S Class?

Driving same in 4matic since October 2018. Very good car, quick engine with plenty power. You don’t need big engine or diesel as long as you don’t driver over 12-14000 miles per year. This does the job. Everything is perfect with this car apart from the seats. Seats ain’t the comfortable at all. They are hard. Engine isn’t that noisy as said in the review. 4matic is heavy to drive. Have enough power, all mode work perfectly fine even the engine is supplied by Renault. Diamond grill is only standard in AMG line models. Not in any other model. Now AMG like model is nice and aggressive looking car with its grill. Also I managed to get 52mpg on motorway 90miles drive. Good enough. Average o m getting after 7000 miles is 31.7 Thanks

Great car. I absolutely love my C200 amg premium plus estate, 2020. Love it. Super comfortable seats. C200 1.5 twin turbo has no whining of the electric and actually sounds quite nice when you boot it. Unlike this review. Maybe she broke it. Or maybe she drove a diesel. Anyway, she is talking rubbish about this engine. I totally recommend it. Genuine 40+ mpg on E5 petrol and super quiet and surprisingly quick and smooth. Rubbish review. Maybe she drove a 2003 Golf estate and didn’t know the difference. Terrible review anyway.
