Mercedes-Benz all-new C-Class Sport sedan

Mercedes-Benz' all-new C-Class Sport sedan, locally produced by Beijing Benz Automotive Co, a joint venture between Daimler AG and Beijing Motor Corp Co, was launched last week at the Shanghai auto show.

With a standard wheelbase of 2,840 mm, the model is equipped with a new 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a 7G-TRONIC PLUS and ECO start/stop function. It also has a 4MATIC All-Wheel Drive system, equipped for the first time on a locally produced C-Class model.

The model comes with a night package equipped standard across the model line that gives it a high degree of night visibility, and the interior is enhanced by AMG sport seats, an AMG 3-spoke multi-function steering wheel, and a central control panel in high-gloss piano lacquer.

According to the company, the all-new C-Class Sport is the first model in its segment to come with full LED headlamps and tail lights, and features the smallest turning circle in its segment, measuring 11.22 meters.
