i'm a huge fan of the 3 series but the new C class is simply too sexy to be ignored and that interior...my gosh, kudos to Mercedes!

The so called "rants" are the reasons why I really like your reviews so much. I appreciate you being hypercritical and honest. If you weren't, you'd just be like every other reviewer just reading the brochure of the cars on KZfaq. So thank you!

Mercedes is really adept at doing sexy interiors nowadays. The A-class (and B, CLA, GLA), S-Class and now C-class all have 9,9/10 interiors. Only thing I don't like is the screen style on these non-S models, because it looks like an iPad. Oh well, I can live with it.

Wow you guys actually listened and posted this video!! Love this channel.

Mat and the twisted driving position in the Mercs haha! I knew he would mention it before the start of the review.

At my local Mercedes-Benz dealer today looking at one of these and sitting in it - very impressed with the interior. Lovely! Made my own W204 seem dated when I got back in it..

I really love this guy! Kind of addicted to his reviews and makes me wanna buy a new car every month :D

Its perfect special the premium plus c250d has everything. Always i bought e class but now c is absolutely nice after 2014 .

And now, 7 years later, this 2014 c class is 5k more expensive then bmw or audi. And this concludes this test

THE NEW C-CLASS LOOKS REALLY COOL IN ALL WHITE. BEAUTIFUL INTERIOR AL WELL

i like the cars exterior and interior the only thing thats really annoying is that screen it looks like someone bolted an ipad or some other tablet to the dashboard, same thing in the a class and cla why did they do that

Just took delivery of my C250 and I love it...

Germans are really tall so I don't understand why they are making cars with such low headroom.

Can someone please tell me how I get the upgraded screen? Is it a specific model that gets it or what? I really want a c class but I can’t stomach the standard screen

One of my dream car to own what a fantastic machine from Mercedes

This car is great. It is ultra confortable, the engine is noisy but just from the outside, you don't hear it inside the car. The place in the back is ok. Obviously get the AMG edition because is just gorgeous looking much better then the one in the video. The internal design is something you won't find in any other car of this class, it is just amazing. The screen makes the cabin more dynamic so I like it. The only problem is the automatic transmission. It is not a complete turnoff but the 8 speed BMW is much better. Overall this car is beautiful inside and outside. The bimmer and the A4 just look old compared to this Merc.

I can already imagine what the C63 AMG will be like

My dream car. It's just absolute class!

why does the nav screen look so out of place? Its like they designed the rest of the dash and then remembered that they needed to add a screen so they just slapped it on there!

He should have done an AMG LIne review, can't wait to pick mine up on Tuesday 👌:D Brilliant car

Liking the design, lights....haa great staff.

Is there some kind of reason for mercedes to not make the stearing wheel directly in front of you?

is the steering angle also an issue with left-hand drive cars?

FINALLY the new c class review. in my country, c class 2.1lt diesel costs 3.000pounds more than the new e class 2.1lt e class 4 matic. its just insane... so i have to ask, how good is the much more cheaper version of c class 1.6lt gasoline engine?

00:54 LOL - I know, not everyone has this kind of humor ;)

how much is the optional Burmester Audio system as seen in this car ?

Love this car. Needs to have the AMG styling though.

I think I prefer the GLA ... Looks more agile and practical, also has he been hitting the gym? Looking good!

I think the same video was uploaded a few weeks ago too, I'm not 100% sure.

My dream car. Just absolute class!

I hate the glossy plastic part surrounding the SatNav area, just makes it look cheap and attracts fingerprints.

The c class has always been comfort oriented. This one will continue that tradition. Mercedes should have integrated the nav screen into the dash.

the luxury grill suits much butter this car

Really nice car - from photos I prefer the estate. Shame about the Samsung Galaxy stuck to the dashboard - looks like an afterthought Mercedes!

This is without a doubt the class leader in the compact exec market...So much better than the shitty 3 series ;))

handle is slightly offset to left. hyundai too

Would love to know if one with air suspension is as comfy as a Citroen C5 with Hydropneumatic, anyone? Carbuyer? Haven't yet driven the new C-series. Of course a BMW is more engaging to drive because stiffer suspension but probably no match for the Merc when we talk about which one is more comfy, and therefore also more "luxurious" in that respect? Br, one who likes comfy cars.

Had a look at a4 and 3 series. Chosen the c class.

the display screen should be built inside, looks wrong, something to look at Mercedes on facelift model. other than that beautiful

You'd have to be metal insane to buy the a4 over this or the 3 series it looks so old now! And so does the a5 audi needs to step there game up! And the q7 and r8 haven't changed since they first came out!

The wheel being off centre is surely a big issue, like over time that could really irk you

I wonder how this car holds throughout the years?

Can You Do A Review On The 2016 C-Class Coupe

love this car all Mercedes are brilliant cars!!!!

What version of the c class is this?

That display screen seems like 'after market'

having driven both of these cars (2015 models) I can give you a more in-depth, non-biased opinion than mat watson. Power: The merc c220 cdi is more punchier than the bmw 320d, accelerates a lot faster. The 320d feels sort of sluggish upon acceleration, could do with extra turbo coupled to the diesel engine. c220 is about 7.5sec to 60mph, while the 320d is closer to 9 sec. Handling: This is where things reverse. While having more acceleration, the mercedes is woeful around the turns. You'll think you're in toyota landcruiser the way the merc takes corners (or even gentle bends). Its really bad, and even for a speed freak like me, a bit scary, the side to side yaw present in the c-class. You might not observe it from the outside, but trust me try to accelerate round a turn and you'll feel it. The bmw 320d on the other hand, kept really balanced and flat round the turns, and gave you a lot of confidence to turn it hard into corners. There is a massive gulf in handling between these two cars. Really disappointed with the c-class there. Comfort: Now this is a mixed one. The C-class leather seats, while no better than that of a skoda octavia, are miles better than that of a bmw. It shocks me how bmw can make such a nice handling car, then spoil it with rubbish uncomfortable, unsupportive seats. I travelled up and down the M4 in both cars, and the mercedes seats, though not that great (could be alot softer), was far more bearable on my 150mile commute than the bmw leather seats, which felt like wood covered with a thin layer of leather. Plush soft, well padded seats on the bmw and it would have been a car worth every penny. Both cars however, failed miserably on the door arm rest support. When i drive long distances, my elbow rests on the door arm rest for hours. None of these cars provided good soft padding for the arm rest, and in both my journies my right elbow felt like i've been crawling on it. Not good, for a £30k car. While the merc was very bouncy around corners, even in sport+ mode, when it came to the speed bumps, i expected it to glide over - instead it just bobbed and crashed over it, making for very uncomfortable travel over speed bumps. mini s-class my backfoot! The bmw while stiffer around the bends (which is good) soaked up the bumps a lot better than the c-class, no rolling forwards and backwards. Noise: Both of these cars could do with A LOT MORE sound insulation. A skoda octavia is quiter than both of these cars on the motorway. I know because i've driven a skoda octavia 1.6tdi on the same M4). BMW though not great, actually had better sound insulation than the merc c220. The problem with the merc c220, was not so much the engine noise, which was too audible for my liking, but there was CONSTANT ROAD NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE CABIN, as though the rear doors / boot was ajar. It was odd. Even with the windows fuly shut, it was still irrittating, and I kept trying to wind up the already closed windows, trying to get rid of the road/wind noise coming from the rear of the cabin. This is a £30k car for goodness sake, why does it have so many annoying faults. Not mentioning the infotainment system, which means you cant change music tracks while your'reusing the sat-nav - how rubbish is that. I have no bias towards either car, my favourite brand is actually honda. but for the money they cost, I was not impressed with either car, most especially the mercedes c220, which gave the impression of the s-class on the outside, but ended up being such a dissapointment. Also - I forgot to mention the automatic gears in the mercedes c220. While it changes smoothly whilst on the move, I found so many times that when moving from standstill, the automatic gearbox lags and fails to engage into gear. Traffic light goes green, (start-stop is already disabled) I put my foot on the gas, and the car waits for 2-3 seconds deciding if it wants to move, then all of a sudden, it surges forward. Very annoying, and potentially very dangerous - sort this out mercedes.

Fantastic design and effortless Elegance.. Merc= class

The central screen, not beeing integrated on the panel...

king of its model predessors!

Well Its going to be comfortable and quiet if its on skinny tyres and have tiny wheels. Try the AMG line which everyone wants instead of the cheaper spec that nobody actually buys

Hey Matt!!!You're definitely the best guy for cars on this planets. Just love your reviews. Just wanted a little piece of suggestion. My dad is mostly chauffeur driven and is planning to buy a car of an E class range but looking at this C class, it should be sufficient luxury. After i saw the car personally i found that the thigh support is very less considering you're sitting in a Mercedes. My question is, will it be uncomfortable in the long run, if yes then should we go for the E-class(Though its interiors are ageing rapidly) Im from India FYI. Thanks!!!

Could you test the Estate ?

Nice car and very luxurious i relly like it

Off set steering wheel. Yeah, I notice that too.

I never thought i would say this, but i would actually take this C-class over an E-class. Or atleast until they release the new E.

will get mine in few days 🤩

All things considered, it's a fantastic car.

March 1st i get mine .....get in!!

Could somebody answer my question? why steeringwheel of this model of mercedes affset to the left?

Comes with complimentary pipe and slippers

Cleverly styled to look like a 3 series from the side.

What is better? The c-class or the Audi A4

Off-centre steering wheel in the right hand drive models is truly a deal breaker for me. Every morning I'd be reminded that I'd voluntarily bought a car where they couldn't even be bothered to get the most basic ergonomics right! Every day I'd notice it. What do UK Merc owners have to say about it - it surely can't be something that only Mat here notices? Have right hand drive Mercs always been like this?

white socks!!! eheheheheh.... btw great C-class... I agree somewhat to his opinion, I would have the AMG look with that suspension setting. Far more compliante without sacrificing to much the handling.... i's not like the C-class 220cdi or even the 250cdi in AMG specs, are going to be track day cars.

Hey Mat! Great review of the C class! Very pro as always! Oh and btw I also reviewed the 2016 C180 and I was wondering if you could give me ur advice on my review. Thanks so much in advance and great continuation. :) That would mean a lot to me.

do review on c63 amg

@kara88bg Honestly Id take out the screen, build a swivel mount,extend the wires in the back. Bam.

Would love to own one of these when I graduate.

it is very good car

Mine doesn’t have a reverse camera

Wow, this C class looks like the size of a 2008 E class. These cars are getting bigger!

No mention of any improvident to the dim witted 7 speed auto?

When it comes to Mercedes cars , I'm not sure about the gear stick location (on the steering wheel like GMC cars) or even in Lincoln MKZ (no gear stick at all just stupid buttons on the dash board !! ). It's kind of turning me off when the gear isn't outstanding in the middle!!

When will new c63 be released?

Mercs are awesome, but when something breaks, it's catastrophic. It's still so damn good though.

Dash kind of looks like a Porsche dash, and why oh why did they place that screen in such an ugly way, whyyyyyy, only ugly thing on such a nice car.

The piano console get easily scratched which is kinda of a bummer...

Thanks!

The car is actually very good. It looks good inside as well as it outside,but i have one huge BUT. This car(with amg aero body kit)which is tested in this review,have a fake exhaust pipes. They are actually hiden underneath the car,and it cost massive 3000 euros...

I dont get it, is he the presenter of CAR WOW or CAR BUYER...?

Why didn't they show the c400

C class or Passat B8?

I love the styling of the new C-class inside and out. I drove an underpowered C180, but I loved it. The ride is very smooth, very gentle. If it had 200 more horsepower and sporty suspension, it would have been perfect. Still an amazing car! But I hate the new infotainment displays new Mercedes' have. Seriously, what idiot thought gluing an I-pad to the dashboard was a good idea. Couldn't they look at Audi's screen for inspiration. The screens in Audis are elegant and can fold away when not needed.

DO THE ALFA ROMEO Q.V!

Us Filipinos don't need to worry about head room because almost all Filipinos are just 5 foot 4-7 tall so yeah we don't need to worry that much when it comes to head room.

nice review

Beautiful car

I have C250 petrol AMG-Line. The car is excellent, engine is punchy, even exhaust sound is sporty. It cracks and bangs after gear shifts above 4000 rpm. The car is stiff, but comfort is very good, I don't complain. Easy to drive. I have confidence in the car and performance. Folks I'm driving say that acceleration feels magnificent. Burmester sounds great, take it. Transmission lever is just fine to me and infotainment screen feels OK. I don't know why people don't like it. It works fast and you get used to it quickly. Reverse camera can be useful if you are not skillful driver, rear of the car is invisible. Fuel consumption in the city is somewhere between 10 to 15 liters, depending on your driving style and accelerator use. Use cruise control often, it reduces consumption. I think mixed average consumption can be between 8 to 9 liters with sporty driving. I made the right choice buying this car.

Estate?

Can you make a review of the Tesla Model S?

Why buy second best when you can have the best, Jaguar XE is the new benchmark in this class.

Ow WOW a reversing camera as sanded? Lexus was doing this back in 2005....

Really nice car!

Is this car worth it because i could go on vacation by getting a cheap car

Finally you did it :) One thing NEVER WITH THE 4-CYL. DIESEL. Such sophisticated car only with petrol engine. Burmester Surround Sound System is fantastic and sounds so realistic even when listening good quality mp3's. I'm 6'1 and a half :D and in my C200 without panoramic sunroof I had enough space above my head in front as well as in the back. If you are over 6 foot you shouldn't take this car with glass roof however for smaller passengers it really isn't an issue. Great car, superb ride quality and so so quiet indeed. You can check my channel. I recently added some acceleration movies and show how it looks at night.

I think this c class has better interior than similary priced e class

Why on Earth did the red suitcase remind me of a GT-R i will never know 0_o?

Hi I have just passed my drivers test and no nothing about cars.... What would you recommend for aimed 21 years old as a first car pls help?

i like all about this car,even a central screen :D
