The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C300 receives a new turbocharged inline-four and several other updates that result in meaningful improvements without altering the car's attractive design.
In the C300, the new Mercedes turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four produces 255 horsepower—14 more ponies than before—and 273 lb-ft of torque.
Along with the new engine, the Mercedes C-class also gained a nine-speed automatic transmission starting in the 2018 model year, which replaces the previous seven-speed unit.
The current-generation C-class remains a handsome automobile, particularly in its coupe form, which lends it the visual punch of Benz's larger, more expensive coupe models.
The 2019 C300 coupe in rear-drive trim can eclipse 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, or 0.6 second quicker than before.
High-performance summer tires on optional 19-inch wheels helped our C300 coupe test car circle the skidpad with 0.91 g of lateral grip and stop from 70 mph in 163 feet.
Pricing for the 2019 Mercedes-Benz C300 coupe starts at $44,795.
Although ride comfort in the C300 remains notably taut, tuning updates for 2019 bring a greater sense of cushioned refinement to how it goes down the road.
The C-class's sumptuous interior is largely unchanged for 2019.
An improved electronics architecture helps the 2019 C-class support improved active-safety features, including an automatic lane-change feature and a smarter radar-based cruise control system.
The 2019 C300 coupe in rear-drive form achieved 37 mpg on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test loop, bettering its EPA highway estimate by an impressive 6 mpg.
