Product Overview

Mercedes-Benz C-class W205 facelift is a compact executive sedan in production from 2018 to 2021. It was available with a range of V6, V8, and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.5 to 4.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, this facelift completely rolled out the 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission across the lineup, though changes are minor when it comes to the engines. The interesting option remained the C63 / C63S AMG with the M177 engine, which deliver all the torque and power that one would want for a mid-size sedan. Fortunately, they haven't received the 4MATIC treatment.
The same cannot be said about other engines: only the most lethargic engines were still RWD. The official fuel economy rating is exceptionally rosy, but it hardly reflects reality.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Mercedes-Benz C-class (W205, facelift 2018) comes with double-wishbone front with multi-link rear suspensions.
