The most popular model in the Australian Mercedes-Benz passenger car
catalogue, the C-Class, has now received a number of significant technical and standard equipment enhancements.
Headlining these changes is the arrival of turbo-charged power with direct fuel injection for the four-cylinder
model C 200 CGI, which replaces the supercharged C 200 KOMPRESSOR.
A second four-cylinder petrol model now joins the C-Class line-up: the all-new C 250 CGI.
Completing the four-cylinder C-Class is the popular 400 Nm turbo-diesel C 220 CDI.
Smooth V6 power continues in the Australian model line-up, with one petrol-powered unit (the C 300) and one
turbo-diesel unit (the C 350 CDI).
The fire-breathing 336 kW C 63 AMG continues as the model range leader.
Complementing these technical developments for the four-cylinder petrol models is the addition of richer standard
equipment levels for all models, offering Australian customers even greater value. The 2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
retains its stand-out safety, comfort and agility, attributes which have contributed to its success in leading
Australia’s Medium >$60K segment (according to VFACTS).

The C-Class is the most popular new Mercedes-Benz model with Australian customers. In 2009, 6,163 C-Class sedans
and 394 estate models were sold locally, comprising 41 per cent of total Australian Mercedes-Benz passenger car
sales.
Almost three years on from its Australian release, the design of the current-model Mercedes-Benz C-Class still
impresses and continues to reflect the technical superiority of automobiles wearing the three-pointed star. Its taut
lines and large, tranquil surfaces continue to catch the eye of Australian buyers, offering a youthful and agile
appearance. These 'athletic' features are now further emphasised with a range of technical enhancements for the
four-cylinder petrol models. Chief amongst these is the introduction of the M 271 EVO engine.
Prices for the 2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class range remains unchanged, with 2009 prices continuing this year. Adding
to this customer benefit is the inclusion of additional standard equipment for all 2010 C-Class sedan and estate
models.
First shipments of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class are now arriving in local Mercedes-Benz showrooms.
