Product Overview

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate S205 facelift is a compact executive station wagon in production from 2018 to 2021. It was available with a range of inline-4, V6, and V8 engines that displaced 1.5 to 4.0 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift S205, the facelift version has a decidedly more aggressive styling. Mercedes discontinued the notorious 7G-Tronic automatic transmission, and the 9G-Tronic became the only gearbox for most engines, with a 6-speed manual being offered for the lesser drivetrains.

To appeal to consumers who wish for more, even things that they don't need, Mercedes is surrendering to the AWD game with many "4MATIC" models offered. Hybrid and PHEV are made available, too, though used car buyers need to be clueless to want them.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the W205/S205 C-class uses with multi-link suspensions at all four corners. This provides the best cornering performance and tunability, at the expense of cost and a little bit of durability.
