Mercedes-Benz C-Class
The fourth incarnation of the C-Class is distancing itself from its eternal rival, the BMW 3 Series. Instead, it’s focussing on the qualities that Mercedes-Benz is known for: comfort and luxury. Longer and wider than its predecessor, the new version’s lines are reminiscent of its big sister, the S-Class. Moreover, it has a 2.1L four-cylinder diesel engine, which means autonomy should be excellent.
