What's New For the 2022 Mercedes-Benz C-Class?

The Mercedes-Benz C Class is fully redesigned for 2022. It has a sleek, more sculpted, and more polished exterior with a heavily influenced A-Class design. The C Class comes in two trim levels with even more standard and available amenities than before. With the C Class also comes a suite of advanced safety aids and more premium technology. A new and larger touchscreen display now takes center stage in the cabin, and a mild hybrid system provides the engine with an extra boost of power.

2022 C Class Trims & Features

There are two base trim levels of the Mercedes-Benz C Class along with multiple packages that add extra amenities, unique style, and more safety technology. The first trim level is the C 300. The C 300 is also available with several packages to add more conveniences and amenities. However, the C 300 has a healthy list of standard features. To start off, the C 300 has 18-inch wheels, LED lights with a wraparound design, and a sunroof. It gets a new infotainment system this year with a nearly 12-inch screen. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are also standard features. Keyless entry is standard, and the C 300 also starts remotely. Heated front seats are a nice convenience in colder weather. The base trim also has ambient interior lights that give the cabin an even more upscale appearance. Optional packages tack on even more amenities to the base list of features. With the Exclusive package, you'll also get a 360-degree camera for parking and reversing. A wireless charging pad is added to the interior, along with an automated parking system. The sound system is also upgraded to a Burmester. The Pinnacle package adds the contents of the Exclusive package plus navigation and a head-up display for the infotainment system.

You'll get rear-wheel drive on the base trim and all-wheel drive on the 4MATIC®, while all-wheel drive is also available for the base trim. A mild hybrid system adds an extra 20 HP of power on demand.
