Born to overachieve.

Its genealogy starts at the first car, races across the first finish line, and tracks 80,000 visits to the patent office.
Born to a long line of leaders, the C-Class wasn’t just raised by its renowned parents. It was elevated.
Every family has its wunderkind. When your name is famous for achievements
in multiple areas of expertise, every new offspring is born with some mighty
shoes to fill. In the Mercedes -Benz family of automobiles, the C - Class has to
share the limelight with several heroic big brothers. And while it casts a more
compact shadow, it leaves an impression that’s no less meaningful. The drivers
who elect a C - Class Sedan or Coupe are also part of an esteemed family — of
true enthusiasts who choose to inspire their passions, not simply satisfy their
basic transportation needs. By choosing leadership over mere competence, and
refusing to compromise virtue for value, they take to life’s roads in a car that’s
sophisticated yet sporty. Daring in style yet dedicated to safety. And a moving
tribute to racing champions, legendary craftsmen, and pioneers in innovation.
Considering how well it fills its family shoes, the C - Class is trim and tailored —
confident in its step, athletic in its stride, and comfortable in its surroundings.
Like every Mercedes -Benz, it’s best measured by the size of its achievements.

Depth of character.
Distinct personalities and distinctive details set the eager Sport Sedans, the
elegant Luxury Sedans and the exotic AMG Sedan of the C‑Class apart from each
other. But it’s their shared family values that makes them stand out from any other
car in their class. Each of them matches purebred performance with pedigreed
refinement. They’ve earned the industry’s highest ratings for safety and retained
value. And every one of them is generous with thoughtful amenities, advanced
innovations and comforting luxuries. No matter which of the 2014 C ‑ Class Sedans
fits your personality best, their common traits make them uncommonly rewarding.
Luxury Sedans Sport Sedans C 63 AMG Sedan
Rich traditions in refinement and poise come
brilliantly to life in the C - Class Luxury Sedans.
While their chrome grille, hood-mounted Star
and 17" split 5-spoke wheels exude a proper
elegance, their strong yet efficient engines and
comfort-tuned AGILITY CONTROL® suspension
put it all in motion with equal parts grace and
gusto. In either the turbocharged 4-cylinder
rear- wheel-drive C 250 or the all-wheel - drive
V-6 C 300 4matic® model, you’ll find just how
sporty a luxury car can be — and vice- versa.
Aggressively sculpted lower bodywork rightfully
seems to glue the three C- Class Sport Sedans
firmly to the road. Deep front and rear aprons
and sweeping side sills set off staggered- width
17" or 18" wheels.1 And like all of the sportiest
Mercedes -Benz models, it wears its Star within
its wide grille, whose new black louvers are
edged in chrome. And while the turbo-4 C 250
and the V-6 powered C 300 4matic and C 350
offer rousing acceleration, they achieve it with
refreshing efficiency and refined smoothness.
Exclusive style with exotic performance meet
in the superlative C 63 AMG. Beneath the twin
power domes of its hood lurks a handcrafted
V-8 that’s eager to unleash all of its 451 hp.
A paddle-shifted 7-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT®
MCT transmission and 18" AMG® wheels team
with an AMG -engineered chassis. If even more
dominating power is what you crave, the new
Edition 507 delivers. Named for its horsepower
output — a new C - Class pinnacle — its powertain,
brakes and styling are all upgraded to match.

Preeminent substance.
Its furnishings advance the state of the art, predicting a new era of
connectedness between you and the road, and with your world.
Its timeless finishes reflect a devotion to quality generations deep.
The C -Class is engineered not just to keep
up with a rapidly changing world, but to set
the pace. That’s one reason it holds onto its
worth so well — enough to earn ALG’s Residual
Value Award for its market segment in 2013.2
It’s especially evident in the C
cabin, where human nature and advancing
technology collaborate to bring a harmony
of driving pleasures to your hands, eyes and
ears. Crisp instruments and vivid displays
all meet your glance from the same height.
Fine Nappa leather greets your hand on the
steering wheel and shifter. An elegant central
controller brings a world of entertainment
and information to your fingers as your elbow
rests upon the padded center armrest. You
won’t find yourself stretching for a touch
screen — or wiping fingerprints from one — in
a C -Class. A multifunction steering wheel
and color menu screen in the gauges put
the features you use most frequently even
closer. And with standard Bluetooth® and the
option of voice control that learns how you
talk, some of its most advanced technologies
require nothing more than a spoken request.
In true Mercedes-Benz fashion, many features
require virtually no effort at all, like windshield
wipers that adjust their speed to rainfall. Or
headlamps whose multi- element light sensor
ensures that they switch on the moment you
-Class Sedan
enter a dark parking garage, yet keep them
from turning on and off with every passing
shade tree. The dual -zone climate control,
however, knows whether it’s shady or sunny.
It also filters the cabin air for dust and pollen.
Even the standard power sunroof is thoughtful
of you, with heat- rejecting tinted glass and
easy closing as you remote- lock the car.
C
-Class cabins are not only finely tailored,
they’re attuned to your personality. Luxury
Sedans combine the traditional warmth of
hand-polished Burl Walnut wood with tone on-tone colors that set the upper dash and
doors, the 4 - spoke steering wheel and the
shift knob in subtle contrast to the seats.
The Sport Sedans raise your pulse with crisp
white gauges, aluminum pedals, and deeply
bolstered front sport seats. The Black dash
and doors match the 3-spoke steering wheel
with raised thumbrests and a flattened lower
section.3 The C 250 and C 300 4matic® Sport
Sedans feature sleek aluminum cabin trim. Or
you can opt for dramatic Black Ash (standard
on the C 350) or rich Burl Walnut wood trim.
The Sport Package intensifies the experience
further. Its racing-inspired front seats feature
Black DINAMICA inserts. Red stitching details
the cabin, complemented by red or black seat
belts, floor mats with red leather borders, and
a pair of shift paddles on the steering wheel.

Cuts no corners.
A Mercedes‑Benz coupe is never a mere cut‑down sedan. In style and substance, the
C‑ Class Coupe carves a niche all its own. Its sport‑tuned suspension comes alive in
curves. Toned muscle defines every contour of its sleek body. An exclusive Panorama
roof brightens its four‑seat cockpit. And even with its attainable value, its long list
of innovations — from safety to entertainment — meet the seemingly unattainable
standards that earn it the Star in its grille. As coupes go, the C‑ Class is a cut above.
C 250 and C 350 Coupes C 63 AMG Coupe
A choice of Direct Injection engines — a turbo -4
in the C 250 or a 302-hp V-6 in the C 350 — and
paddle- shifted 7-speed automatic transmission
team up for swift yet efficient response. The
AGILITY CONTROL® suspension and staggeredwidth 17" or 18" wheels1 deliver crisp handling
with composed comfort. Racing-inspired Sport
Packages sharpen the look and feel inside and
out, while honing the handling of the C 250 to
an even finer edge. Optional 4matic® all- wheel
drive turns the C 350’s torque into even more
tenacious traction on any road, in any season.
Raw power and pure refinement unite to create
the C 63 AMG Coupe. Crafted by the hands of
its own master engine builder, the heroic AMG
V-8 unleashes its 451 hp with an equally epic
exhaust note. Its 7-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT®
MCT transmission, 18" AMG® wheels, and
AMG-developed chassis bring racing - derived
engineering to the street. A new Edition 507
delivers the horsepower boost for which it’s
named from beneath a ducted aluminum hood,

sending it to the pavement via 19" forged-alloy
wheels backed by upgraded compound brakes.
