Mercedes-Benz is taking one of its most popular models into the electric era! Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has officially previewed the all-new electric C-Class, bringing together the familiar luxury and comfort of the C-Class with modern electric technology.
Introduced as part of the brand’s 140 years of innovation celebration, the new Mercedes-Benz C 300 4MATIC electric AMG Line Plus promises powerful performance, a longer driving range and a cabin filled with smart features.
And for those interested, the electric C-Class is already available for pre-booking in Malaysia, with an estimated starting price of RM360,888.
A Sporty New Look With A Touch Of Luxury
The all-new electric C-Class keeps its elegant appearance while introducing a sportier design. Its low front, smooth roofline and rounded rear give the car a sleek, modern look.
One of its standout features is the illuminated Mercedes-Benz grille, complete with a glowing three-pointed star and light animation when the car is opened, closed or charging.
The exterior also features DIGITAL LIGHT headlamps, 20-inch AMG multi-spoke wheels, the AMG Line Plus package and Night Package, which adds a stylish black accent. At the rear, four star-shaped taillights complete the design.
The car’s aerodynamic shape also helps improve driving efficiency, with a drag coefficient starting at 0.22.
A Comfortable Cabin Packed With Smart Features
Step inside, and the electric C-Class offers a spacious interior designed for comfort and convenience.
The highlight is the 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen, stretching across the dashboard and giving drivers and passengers access to entertainment, navigation and vehicle settings.
There’s also a built-in camera for selfies, video calls, and facial recognition, alongside wireless phone charging, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and a Burmester 3D surround sound system.
Another interesting feature is the SKY CONTROL panoramic roof, which can switch between clear and opaque glass. It also features 162 illuminated stars, creating a beautiful night-sky effect inside the car.
Passengers can enjoy heated front sports seats, black leather upholstery with red stitching, red seat belts, adjustable ambient lighting and dual-zone climate control. The cabin is also designed to reduce outside noise.
With a longer wheelbase, the car offers more room for passengers, while a 470-litre rear boot AND additional 101-litre front storage compartment provide extra space for luggage.
Powerful Performance With Up To 690KM Driving Range
The electric C-Class isn’t just about luxury. It also delivers impressive performance.
Powered by a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system, the C 300 4MATIC electric AMG Line Plus produces 421hp and 800Nm of torque, allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 4.5 seconds, with a top speed of 210km/h.
Its innovative two-speed transmission helps deliver quick acceleration while improving efficiency during longer drives. The 4MATIC system also adjusts power between the motors when needed, while the comfort suspension adapts to different road conditions.
The car comes with an 85kWh unstable battery, offering a driving range of up to 690km (WLTP) on a full charge.
Thanks to its 800-volt charging system, drivers can gain up to 290km of driving range in just 10 minutes under suitable fast-charging conditions.
With a 320kW DC charger, the battery can charge from 10% to 80% in approximately 22 minutes. Meanwhile, a full charge using the 22kW AC charger takes an estimated 4.5 hours.
Actual driving range and charging performance may vary depending on driving conditions and other factors.
Smarter Driving & Safety Features
Mercedes-Benz has also equipped the electric C-Class with its latest digital and safety technology.
The Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB. OS) powers the car’s digital features, including the MBUX Virtual Assistant, Google Maps-based navigation and route planning that can recommend charging stops.
Drivers can also enjoy augmented reality navigation, which provides visual guidance to make unfamiliar routes easier to follow. For safety, the car features MB. DRIVE ASSIST, which supports steering and partially automated driving, alongside MB. DRIVE PARKING ASSIST 360 for easier parking.
Other features include up to 27 cameras and sensors, up to 11 airbags, PRE-SAFE technology, a dashcam, GUARD 360 vehicle protection and an acoustic warning system that alerts pedestrians at low speeds. These assistance systems support drivers but do not replace their responsibilities on the road.
