The Mercedes C-Class has sharpened up its act and in doing so has become a force to be reckoned with.
This much improved version of the fourth generation Mercedes C-Class features a package of significant enhancements. The exterior revisions are subtle but inside there are important changes, including the option of a fully-digital instrument cluster. As previously, the core range is built around saloon and estate models and there are fresh entry-level petrol and diesel engine options. Plus the driving experience has been enhanced with the optional application of Mercedes' latest autonomous driving technology.
Background
This fourth generation '205' model series C-Class has delivered a stronger proposition with a greater focus than was the case with its predecessors. That's been necessary for two reasons. First, stronger competition in the mid-sized premium badged executive saloon and estate segment, not only from the usual suspects, BMW's 3 Series and Audi's A4, but also from cars like the Jaguar XE and the Lexus IS. Secondly, there's been the fact that Mercedes buyers have had an alternative to this car in the shape of the brand's similarly priced and comparably sized CLA four-door coupe.
Since this MK4 model's original launch at the end of 2013, Mercedes has gradually broadened out the range, first with fire-breathing Mercedes-AMG performance derivatives, then with sleek Coupe and Cabriolet body styles. By early 2018 though, it was clear that a little more remedial work would be needed to keep this car competitive with the best of the opposition, hence the introduction of the heavily revised version we're going to look at here.
Driving Experience
The C-Class has for some time been, and will continue to be, a car with a clear focus on comfort and refinement - at least in its mainstream guises anyway. It was the first model in this class to offer the option of air suspension, though most buyers stick with the standard steel springs. As before, across the range there's a standard 'DYNAMIC SELECT' driving modes system - and you can add to that with optional 'DYNAMIC BODY CONTROL' adaptive damping. All models come as standard with 9G-Tronic automatic transmssion, which now features nine speeds and buyers certainly aren't short of engine options, with most still likely to want a diesel. There's a base 160hp 1.5-litre unit in the C200d. But most buyers opt for the 2.0-litre 194hp unit on offer in the C220d variant, which offers the option of 4MATIC 4WD.
The entry-level petrol unit in the base C180 is a 1.6-litre 156hp powerplant, but ideally you'd stretch to the more modern, much perkier 184hp 1.5-litre engine installed in the C200 which features the brand's latest 'EQ Boost' technology using a 48volt on-board network with a belt-driven starter/alternator. When accelerating, 'EQ Boost' system can assist the engine with an additional 14hp, bridging the brief moment until the turbocharger has built up its full charge pressure. 4MATIC 4WD is optional. Mercedes has also developed a 2.0-litre 258hp version of this petrol engine for the C300 derivative. Beyond that lie only the Mercedes-AMG high performance derivatives. The first of these, the 3.0-litre V6 C43 4MATIC, now puts out 390hp, 23hp more than before. Beyond that lies only the V8 C63 AMG model, with a 4.0-litre V8 Biturbo engine offering either 476 or 510hp.

This guy is like the David Attenborough of cars. I love it!
Thanks Scott 👍
Except that he and his colleagues are far more competent and truthful than the Attenborough dinosaur.
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Can you do same in-depth video like this for E Class? Thanks:)
These reviews are paradigms. Very clear and precise orations leaving nothing at which to guess. It's rare that a video this long would be engaging, but when watching your videos time flies by at the speed of light.Very interesting and well thought out editing and production.
Lovely car , lucky to be driving one.
All the OSV reviewers are of superb quality. I've just stuck my money on one of these so have watched this video 3 times and have picked up extra info on each view. :)
Incredibly in-depth review, covering all areas that any potential buyer could possibly wish to know about. Keep up the great work.
Once again the best review on CZcams. So much detail. Well done.
Thanks for the feedback Fred 👍
This is the best car review that I have ever watched! Keep on doing a good job!!Thanks!!
Certainly the most comprehensive review of this car. Seriously considering this as a result. Thank you.
I have absolutely no interest in cars but I really like the reviews on this channel. They are articulate, knowledgeable and very well produced. All others look amateurish in comparison and often include 'too much presenter'. Great work.
Thanks for the great feedback Owen 👍
This is how you review a car. Excellent!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the feedback Carlos 👍
I second that.
I can't put in words how much I enjoyed this vide... clear, informative and professional! OSV you've got a sub!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the sub 👍
Great comprehensive review. Very impressed with the performance figures for these, even the small engines ones, 149 mph from just over 180bhp. Awesome aerodynamics
Love how he says Mercedes ownership doesn't start with an A Class, but only when you get a C Class. I always think that when I see an A Class on the road. First-time Merc buyers..
I thought Mat Watson was good - then I saw this vid!
Best C Class review I've ever seen.
Hahah nice nickname you have there ...
I don't often subscribe to car review channels, well, i don't often subscribe to CZcams channels, and i'm not really a Mercedes fan, but you, Sir, just earned yourself another subscriber. Really good car review.
Thanks Alberto ✌ great to see comments like this. Hope you enjoy our future reviews.
Excellent review. Most comprehensive out there. The C class is a gem of a car!
Thanks Paul 👍 its a beauty
Best car review ever watched. No fast forward.
Thanks for watching, Andy!
Excellent review. Told me everything I needed to know. Thank you.
I'm on my 4th one, a superb car, this guy is full of info........ amazing ...........
Awesome review. The c43 is the one to get. Picked mine up in January. Such a beast. I've been having fun vlogging with it.
Its a great vehicle 👍 great channel ABAUTO
8:40 *I had a Citroen DS19 did this trick many years ago !*
Very extensive review. Loads of information. Thanks. Love from India 🇮🇳
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Outstanding quality review.
A Great review that can be broken down to bite sized pieces, that can be viewed separately or as a whole meal. Well done !!!!
P.S. I just took delivery of a C300 AMG 4 pack sedan. A very impressive car.
Thanks for the feedback Mark 🙏 we are looking to break the sections down into individual video uploads to make it even easier for people to find what they are looking for 👍
Would you buy another? Cheers from Houston, TX
Super detailed review....where did that hour go? Was totally enthralled.
Thanks for the feedback Joe 👍 great to see comments like this

Our pleasure, Richard. We're glad you found the video helpful 👍
Absolutely excellent review. Thank you so much.
Thanks Zaid 👍
Wow. ... this is the channel to beat. Outstanding review. (Subscribed).
Very good review!
Thanks for the feedback Rob 👍
I own a 2019 c43 coupe and I can’t even remember all the stats on the car like this gentleman lol! (Incredible car BTW)!
Fantastic review...very articulate, thorough, and well edited video.
My only constructive criticism from a viewer’s perspective is to maybe break down the video into multiple videos specific to the categories. This would be more digestible for the viewer and provide you more spread out CZcams videos/content.
Otherwise outstanding...subscribed!
Thanks for the feedback! We'll take this on-board
Very smart. I like the hybrid.
I like c class its beautiful
Excellent review, many thanks
Hello the reviewer mentions a ‘special led light package’ being fitted as standard. I can’t see that listed in any specs anywhere? In fact you have to buy the expensive night package to get it. Could you advise?
I watched and enjoyed every minute. Thanks 🙏
Thanks for watching. Billy!
Does anybody know the function of the small side lip in the rear wheel arch??
Love my C220d but the plugin hybrid will be next and the Burmester sound system is fantastic!
Looking to buy one in the summer how is the reliability?
Have you done a review of the C350e hybrid?
*What a fantastic and comprehensive review and congratulations, how on earth do you recall those statistics, however I'm am am afeard you will not be considered in BBC's revamp of 'Top-Gear' on account of 'over-running' advert Breaks*
🤣 thanks for the feedback 👍
Amazing review, sir! Thank you. One question - I am currently considering getting a C300 coupe AMG line. Do you have any competing recommendations in the same price range for UK?
Hi Darko, the C-Class is a great car as well as having some great alternatives to it. Please contact us on the link below to speak to our UK vehicle experts for the best car for you as well as a free quote >> www.osv.ltd.uk/contact-us/
Confused as to which parts of the safety systems are installed in my C200 SE and what are extras
car guru...im sold !
This guy is phenomenal at his job!
Bloody hell mate, did you remember all those specs or were you reading an autocue?????? in any case an excellent review.
🤣 He's been reviewing for a long time now 👍
Does the amg line sacrifice ride comfort. I’m not a fan of stiff suspension.
Hello from South Africa. The c180 is a very popular choice in our country. Why is there no mention of the 180 engine derivative in the review? Is the c180 not available in your country? thank you sir, for the excellent review
Any GLEs reviews?
excellent review
Gonna get one will review it with every aspect of this car when do saloon c lass 👍🏾🌈💯
Best review I've seen on CZcams. Good job. What's the problem with the new C300? You were saying nobody goes for it? I'm about to take it. What's the problem with it?
It's not a favourable company car, the 220d is the best for the mass user. My E300 was my choice over 220 because of its refinement. But company car drivers look at cost more.
Best Car Review ever, greetings from Germany 👌🏼
Thanks, ErCan K 👍 great to see feedback like this. hope you enjoy our future reviews
Thanks for this outstanding review 👍

Good detailed review
Thanks Rob 👍

What a review! Excellent!
Glad you enjoyed it, Michael!
Good review thanks!
It's a few years on since this vid and the new C-Class is out now, but was looking used anyway and mainly at 3-Series but this particular spec model looks to largely fit the bill, this update is a nice looking car especially in that dashing red and no shiny black plastic interior is very appealing. I think the new 2022 is likely to have more capacitance buttons which is off-putting so looking at this facelift W205 is definitely an option - if i can find one with a heated steering wheel........
I take it that the diesel models use AdBlue DEF, yes? Also how was the drive with the 4matic, would standard RWD be a nicer drive? Thanks.

It's already been said, sort of, but this is a truly fantastic review.
From memory, I don't think the presenter was a huge fan of the 1.6l version but, at the age of 38, I'm new to driving and want to start with something classy that doesn't come with ridiculous insurance costs. On the basis of this video, I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on one.
Hi there, that's great to hear 👍 We'd be more than happy to help you get behind the wheel of a Mercedes C-Class. Get in touch here: bit.ly/39YHCml
Best reviewer!
The 1.6 Diesel is also the OM654 and will replace the 2l Version in the E200d because its more efficient.
A very thorough review by someone who likes and understands cars and what people want to know. Watch out CarWOW.
Thanks Nick, appreciate that 😀
great review, thanks! just bought one the other week, very impressive car!

The price difference between a fully kitted a250 and c200 is only about 2,500 do you think it is worth the upgrade?
No. The A class fully kitted way better.
Amazing review... You are a star
6500 faulty parts replaced?
I would be most grateful if you could, as I am days away from ordering a C class. I am considering seriously ordering a C 180 but you don’t mention it, unless I missed it.
Thank you in anticipation.

I am looking for a new car and am a BIG Mercedes fan, but after reading
thousands of complaints (reliability sucks/extremely expensive repairs
on cars
33:40 *Omitted the latest **_'B' Class_** Mercedes, just introduced so maybe unaware ? I had to argue with MB to get the **_Black Ash_** instead of artificial Carbon Fibre, but eventually won and got mine with Genuine Black Ash, although many think it to be 'Plastic'!*
Great choice 👍 we cant stand "fake fibre" either
Comprehensive review.👏👏

Best diesel car of all time....190D 2.5. runs for ever.
william dryden the Mercs back in the ‘80s and ‘90s were by far mechanically superior than nowadays models. Much better looking too. From “the best or nothing brand” it turned just into an overpriced average car brand 😏
Do you have review for CLA?
Hi Karam, sadly not yet...Its on the list 👍
Amazing car 😍🚗

Keyless go is included in the premium pack, fyi.
Mercedes change the packs every 3 to 6 months. This video was pre June 2019 delivery specs.
what is the difference between C200 AMG premium vs Premium Plus?
Hi Nilan, The Premium model includes extra equipment such as ambient lighting, KEYLESS-GO Comfort package, electric memory front seats, and more. The Premium Plus model includes all this plus a Burmester surround sound system with 13-speakers.

I'm guessing with a set of winter tyres these cars are fine 👍

Pros : good looking, nice interior cons: no touch screen navigation system,rear seat Thai support isn't good,rear seat head room should be improved
Not having a touchscreen means the interface has been carefully designed for keeping driver focus on the road with a physical interaction array which requires a minimal amount of your field of view to perform properly.
6500 part change, one simple question 6500 part out of how many part ?
6000 of those parts were a new type of bolt that requires a mercedes specific tool.
This man sold the new polo to me. What a channel this is.
That's brilliant to hear, Thabo! Many thanks for watching 👍
Love the comment at 1:12 that "...it's with this model (the C Class), NOT with the company's smaller front-wheel drive offerings (A Class) that Mercedes ownership actually starts.! All those new Merc owners in their A Classes, that don't realise just how good a Mercedes can actually be.
It would be extremely useful to know what is standard equipment for the series and what are options
watch from the 37th minute mark
@@Papikristo I watch all their videos when buying. They are the best. However, they still don't list everything and I don't live in the UK. The UK is a totally different market. Thanks for the tip.
@@stephenrichards5386 ok. i understand. try an online brochure
@@Papikristo Been there. I bought a 220d this month. I was reversing out of a parking space in town when two cars moved to the rear of me. My car slammed on the breaks. I've not seen that advertised in any review.
I've had mercedes on and off for 30 years with a BMW 525 estate, a Mazda CX5, a Hyundai tucson and i40 but went back to Mercedes because of the style and quality and the service at my local 50kms away dealer. The Mazda dealer(s) are shit, the BMW arrogant, the Hyundai superb. Voilà, back to a good mercedes dealer and a car I still don't fully know. :))
This is the AMG though, should be included in the title and description
Just has the amg kit... Visuals but not the engine... So no it's not an AMG
@@rscmircea1987 My point still stands
that is not an AMG...
What does osv mean
It stands for One Stop Vehicle 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply thanks
21:06 If in 2017-2019 models, driver still has to dock his/her phone to keep up with Traffic, Navigation and Media, sorry to say mate, but this by no means is a sophisticated Infotainment system, if cables, holders and chargers will still be lying around in line of sight.
I wonder what’s your definition of sophisticated is in the 21st Century. Automobile companies are Pants in getting the basic right inside the Cabin!
Thats alot of "Active" Will it help me be "Active" when making cup of tea aswell?
are the ambiance light strips as standard?
No
Gotta have premium or premium plus package 👍
I really like the the in cabin noise of the brand's 2.0.T gas engine in any class. It sounds like a well built, fine-tuned modified engine.
The blow of valve and exhaust gurgle are the awesome and impressed me as was not expecting that.
Perfect review, probably better than autofughel 👌
Thanks, comments like this mean a lot 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply 😃
16:58 *Don't believe that, I have same headlights on my B200 CDi AMG and they are amazing and would **_fry anyones eyeballs_** at 600m on FULL BEAM. They are the best lights I have ever had on any car by miles. Care needed in using please.*
The car looks huge next to him. How tall is he?😂
He comes from the Shire 🤣
Car review in propah british accent!!!!
Which region's accent is this?
A Class gets S Class dash yet this which is a higher model doesn’t. That makes sense!,
When are they finally going to get rid off the ugly tablet-like screen with a huge bezel? Even the A class got an upgrade!
I would so get an a class it has way more tech
The A-Class infotainment system is fantastic!
I'd have a fully loaded A Class over my E300 tbh the new MBUX system is so good.
This guy is mad about Mercedes
He is mad about cars 👍
