The new-generation C-Class from spring 2004 - Even more dynamism, quality and modern appeal: fresh impetus from the Mercedes-Benz C-Class

 

Mercedes-Benz has issued the following press release: Four years after launch, Mercedes-Benz is significantly enhancing the technology, equipment and design of the successful C-Class. The newly sports-tuned chassis, steering and six-speed manual transmission make the C-Class an even more agile performer.

 

From spring 2004, a four-cylinder powerplant with compressor supercharger and an output of 141 kW/192 hp will be added to the engine line-up for the Saloon and Estate models. The C 220 CDI will develop 110 kW/150 hp, thus making it 5 kW/7 hp more powerful than its predecessor, whilst the new C 55 AMG developing 270 kW/367 hp is the first car in this Mercedes-Benz model series to feature an eight-cylinder engine. The C-Class interior is enhanced further by a new cockpit design featuring exceptionally well designed controls and the THERMATIC automatic climate control system, which comes as standard.

 

Also standard is the new paint which is based on nano-particle technology and offers greater scratch resistance. Optional hitech equipment includes bi-xenon headlamps with cornering light function, steering-wheel gearshift buttons for the automatic transmission and a new range of audio/navigation systems. Available in Saloon, Estate or Sports Coup
