Mercedes C-Class (2013) Updates

Thursday, 21 March 2013 10:46 PM The 2013 C-Class saw the introduction of new trim levels, including the AMG Sport and AMG Sport Plus packages. These packages offer enhancements like 17-inch and 18-inch AMG wheels, bi-xenon lights, and sporty interior upgrades. I believe these trim levels give buyers more options to customize their vehicle to their preferences.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 06:17 PM The C-Class for 2013 also featured a new ECO mode with an automatic engine stop-start function, which helps in improving fuel efficiency. This feature shuts off the engine when the car comes to a stop and restarts it when the driver is ready to move. I think this is a great step towards reducing fuel consumption.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 08:24 PM In terms of safety, the 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class came equipped with standard features like stability and traction control, antilock brakes, and multiple airbags. It also included advanced systems such as Attention Assist and optional Lane Tracking packages. This emphasis on safety makes the C-Class a reliable choice.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 09:26 AM The 2013 C-Class models were available in both sedan and coupe body styles, with various trim levels including the C250, C300 4MATIC, C350, and the high-performance C63 AMG. Each model offered a range of standard and optional features to cater to different buyer needs.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 10:49 PM Mercedes-Benz updated the interior of the 2013 C-Class with features like 5.8-inch central display, COMAND interface, and MB-Tex vinyl upholstery. The Sport Plus package added more luxurious touches such as DINAMICA inserts and contrast red stitching. I think these interior upgrades make the C-Class feel more premium.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:09 PM The 2013 C-Class received positive reviews for its refined ride and handling, along with excellent brakes. The C63 AMG model was particularly praised for its powerful performance. I believe the C-Class is a strong contender in the compact luxury sport sedan segment.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 03:21 PM For the 2013 model year, Mercedes-Benz also introduced a new C180 model with a turbocharged 1.6-liter direct-injection petrol engine, aimed at fleet customers with its efficient emissions and economy. This addition broadened the appeal of the C-Class to a wider market.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:07 AM The 2013 C-Class saw changes in the stalk arrangement on the steering column, with the cruise control and turn signal/wiper stalks swapped. While this change might take some getting used to, its a minor adjustment in an otherwise well-designed vehicle.

Wednesday, 06 June 2012 03:49 PM The 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class introduced a new 3.5-liter V6 engine for the C300 4MATIC model, replacing the previous 3.0-liter V6. This new engine delivers 248 horsepower and 251 lb-ft of torque, along with improved fuel economy. I think this upgrade significantly enhances the driving experience.

Wednesday, 06 June 2012 12:07 PM Mercedes-Benz integrated the mbrace2 telematics system as standard equipment in the 2013 C-Class. This system includes features like Internet access, remote vehicle interaction, and over-the-air diagnostic capabilities. It also adds new services such as geofencing, Speed Alert, and Driving Journal.
