The 2015 Mercedes C-Class has received a complete redesign that changes the "baby-Benz" from class average to a class by-itself. As I discuss in the video, much of the change for this generation is down to the 2014 Mercedes CLA250 ( • 2014 /2015 Mercedes B... ) taking over the role of "the cheapest Mercedes in America". By adding the CLA to the line-up, the base C-Class no longer has to compete with the Audi A3, BMW 320i, Lexus CT, etc for entry level sales. Thanks to this rework of the Mercedes price ladder, the C300 is able to boast the most interior refinement of any vehicle in the class, more standard features and more power as well.

i've watched many different review of the 2015 c-class, i think ur review is the most useful one, and i truly appreciate that effort
I watched this video before I got my new C class. Helped me a lot. Have a look at my channel. Made some video's about my car, but not as informative like this one :)
I agree. Watched too many auto reviews and this was the best by far. Great job.
I agree.Keep up the good work.
one of the best automotive critics on CZcams, you deserve more subs!
Charles Lin From your mouth to God's ears....
9years later and still the best and most relevant review of this car ! 👌🔥
DYING at him getting in the trunk 😂 Great review.
I am going through some of the reviews, not only Alex gives a very good review, long video but never get bored. Also lot of good technical analysis. Great reviews
Like always, you have done the best review on CZcams, very detailed, informative, and comprehensive. I appreciate you hard works.
Great review. Easily my favorite car reviewer on CZcams. Keep up the good work!
Very comprehensive review as always! Big fan Alex.
This is a super awesome review. Thanks for the video and it's been very helpful to me.
best review; you answered every question I had, and touching specific points other reviews missed, thank you.
Well done! I love mine, your review was one of the reasons I looked seriously at my purchase. Ty
Wow! What a review! I like how you compared the competitors in this segment at the end. Great job! I really enjoyed watching this review.
The best review I saw so far about this car. Well done.
Awesomely detailed on everything I wanted to know, extremely helpful! 👍
A very nice review, lots details and unique observations! Thumbs up!
Excellent thoroughly detailed review mate! Great job!
This gentlemen knows what his talking about, good work.
Excellent review, Alex. Please keep up the good work!
Alex, you have the best review of this car on CZcams. My new C300 4Matic Sport Pkg arrives in 3 weeks :) it was not easy to choose among all the great cars in this class, but your review helped me decide.
The most in depth review I've seen. Thanks!
best car review i ve seen so far， keep it up man。
amazing review very detailed oriented, great job Alex
I still prefer the luxury trim, particularly on the C. The grill is wider and more pronounced, giving it extra character.
I'm willing to bet your grandchildren disagree with you about the luxury's grill.
Bob Hope Hopefully they will be less arrogant than you are, when I have them.
Mercedes still offers both trims, so I don't care what boy racers choose.
Hum, I was trying to call you old, I was not trying to be arrogant. the luxury grill is the "Classic" grill harking back to merc's of old...young people don't want their car to look like an "old mercedes"
Who brought up boy racers? Older people tend to prefer the look of the "luxury grill" while younger people tend to like the sleeker look.
You've got the crotchety old man thing down though.
Bob Hope Now that is untrue. I'm 18 years old, so I could be considered young.
I'm considering the MB C300 with the Luxury Package. Not due to heritage or anything like that, but it seems as if it demands respect with the hood ornament, reflects class and sends a message to those who look at it.
I suppose he brought up 'boy racers' because the moment a 17-20 year old male hears the word 'Sport' in the name of the car he is considering to buy, he immediately thinks of burnouts, lots of low-end torque and the growl that a V8 makes when you slam the accelerator. I can vouch for this thought due to the fact that most of the male peers I have are just uneducated in the field of automotive engineering. Just because something says 'Sport' or, in this case, 'Sport Package' does not mean it will go faster or accelerate more rapidly.
All in all, Just wanted to make a point.
You don't have to be old to prefer a classy look over a stylish look.
***** Now they've given both of you a choice to be individuals. That's the real beauty of it!
Your review was extremely informative. I have just purchased the 2019 model and needed a detailed review but was unable to find one as informative as yours. I hope you review the 2019.
How is your c300 2019 doing ?
Best C300 review on CZcams. I got the 2017 C300 4matic sedan and I love it
NIce! I truly enjoyed the review. I am looking into purchasing 2015 C-300 very soon. Again, good review.
I'm buying one. Did u buy?
i love my 2015 c class and im hooked on mercedes for life. excellent video
Do u still have it if not why did u get rid of it
& how did u like it when u had it
I just test drove this car it’s so beautiful I love it can’t wait to get mines next year 😍
Great Review Alex as always...This is C class so far that I have liked. I like the sport model as well.
Your reviews are awesome! Just bought a C300 2015 and I can totally relate to your review. :)
I'm buying one. Do u still like urs?
Thanks so much for explaining the reasoning for the screen sitting on the dash instead of inside. It does make the front seating area appear roomier by making the dash less bulky. I hated it when I first saw it last year. Now it's doesn't seem such an eyesore.
You covered pretty much everything, subbed
great in depth review. subscribed!
Brilliant review mate. I'm picking mine up tomorrow (Sydney time).
Did u end up buying?
Great review Alex, thank you.
I like the way this review was set up!
Fantastic review! The visual graphics on the screen to help with comparison is just brilliant. Great work!
such a detailed and fair review. very good
cheers from India
Fantastic thorough review. Wish you would comment on the infotainment and the audio system, bluetooth technology etc.
but overall, great review. Thank you.
Alex, because of you review I bought this car. Thank you!
excellent review Alex .... as usual . Thx
Well balanced, detailed review. Thanks.
Truck section got you a new subscriber my man 😂
Best review as usual.
Great review. I'm convinced!!!
My c400 should be here soon. Woohoo. I didn't drive it, but after driving the 300 I was hooked.
I'm buying one. Do u still like urs?
Wow excellent review!!!!!
Stumbled across your channel the other day. Huge fan + subscribe. Thank you for your wonderful, thorough reviews.
As to the MB C300, this car looks very solid. I'm glad MB got rid of the awful dialpad cluster on the center console. What are your thoughts on the technology in the car for long term, say in 5 years?
Last, I'm cross shopping many of the entry luxury vehicles. How do you think this car stacks up against the Genesis?
Thank you for your time!
great review ..... great car .... got one for my self .... brings a smile every time I drive it ...
I just bought this 2015 C300 and I'm very pleased with the decision great car so far
I'm buying one. Do u still like yours?
Great review!
Great detailed review
WOW! You're immediately hit by quality content! Every word that you said in this video, I agreed with! Subscribed and Liked! The most useful review!
I know you rarely do, but I think you should include in your review something like a 30-40 seconds of exhaust note, for every car (I don't mean you have to rev it up to 7k rpm, I just mean this to hear the sound of the engine, since it's an important part of the car). Think about it ;)
If you want to hear a stock exhaust be my guest. I made a lot of videos with this baby S-Class and still make them :)
Great review. Thanks.
This is the 1st person I've seen that truly gave a non biased, honest review. I agree with most of his talking points. Audi & BMW has some catching up to do in terms of their interior. Although BMW has the best in dash technology. And ATS definitely is the best handling car in this class. And I never thought I'd say that over BMW. Keep inind ATS & C300 are the newer cars so we'll see what the other 2 has up their sleeves.
Nice review Alex. I have been in this car and the 2017 a4.I found the mercedes interior to be a bit more classy and traditional but the a4 is modern and futuristic and feels like a spaceship! Whats your opinion of the a4
the only thing you missed was the beautiful interior ambient lighting inside that just makes the inside look really high end.other than that you have the best review skills and knowledge im subbed.
Is it standard?
Good video. I took a test drive of the BMW 328xi with the M Sport package yesterday; the car had more body roll and less steering feel than expected and the rear seat seemed accommodating for my teenager. I had not considered the C Class because the previous generation was cramped in the back and not very agile, but will take a look at the C300 now.
Did you get it?
@@henryneil567 since that post 8yrs ago my vehicle purchases have been, in order, the 2016 Subaru WRX (manual), 2017 Honda CRV, 2015 Infiniti Q50 (CPO) w/3.7L VQ, 2018 Buick Regal TourX, 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia, and now the 2023 WRX (manual). As you can see, I don’t keep vehicles for the long haul, just to enjoy the experience.
excellent review.
Alex, great review, what is your opinion on ride quality with those steel suspensions of Sport Pkg on the review car? Are they super stiff? Have you tried the new C300 without a sport package for ride quality comparison? Again awesome review, very very thorough.
The C300 is tuned toward the softer side of the spectrum, so the Sport package is stiffer than the standard C300 but not as stiff as the sport springs on the other sedans in the category. The suspension is slightly stiffer than the BMW 3-Series or Volvo S60 in standard form, but not as stiff as teh S60 or 3-Series with their sport packages.
Just had this car as a loaner.Excellent handling.Great acceleration.Very comfortable.On NYC streets shocks could be better.It is not quiet on most highways.On the NY State Thruway road noise was very loud.
your videos are very nice and explain everything.. however i believe u need to show us the performance of the car such as acceleration
Now this is a review very detailed
It deserves 10/10 exterior
great review
excellent review, thx
I love your in depth reviews of vehicle interiors! I also appreciate the fact that you state your height when sitting in the rear seats for visual reference.
With your videos I don't have to deal with the hassle of aggressive sales people lurking the dealerships asking me if they can "help" me when I really just want to see the cars in person.
Hi Alex,
I am currently driving an Infiniti Q50S Hybrid AWD and considering a C300.
How would you compare these? Interior quality and design? How is the ride quality compared?
I can’t wait to get this car
It's amazing how few new cars come with spare tires.
Would love to see a review on the Cadillac ATS coupe.
Great review, very in depth and informative. Thank you.
The C Class has never been "less than competitive". The C Class and 3 series, with it's multiple configurations, have been the #1 and #2 vehicles in their class for a very long time.
Agreed bro
I've had mine for two weeks and I love it.
Do u still have it? Any update about it?
How is it now
?
Hi. What's the average miles per gallon on your car. I tend to average 50mpg on the c300h
B Muss traded it in for a 2020
1st time i have seen one of you reviews and I like the way you do them..a little surprised your final score was a 7/10..from the beginning of the video to the end i would have guessed at least 8/10.
Eugene Neale It's all about the value. The C-Class is a great car, but the price tag is a little bit steep. Then again, I think that is good for Mercedes as a brand, but personally I tend to favor the "deal"
makes sense...gets up to low/mid 50's quick
Awesome review !!!
Which colour is this ?
You do such great reviews. Whenever I have free time I like to watch your reviews - even of cars I wouldn't consider buying - like this one. I don't understand why leather is an option on a luxury car and why a luxury car can't eliminate dummy buttons (like the seat ventilation on this car) it looks so tacky
LOL @ when you got in the trunk, "10/10 comfort!".
Turbo lag is exactly the reason why to choose the C400 over the C300. The twin turbo charged V6 is phenomenal! I can tell you because I just bought a C400
In the trunk did it for me!! 😂. Great review and great car. I love mine 💞 🚘 💞
You got in the trunk 😂 greatest review I've seen
Alex on Autos So, would you rank / grade this above the 3 series? When folks say BMWs are more a driver's car, what does that mean? Do you think the 3 series drives better? Would be curious as I find this gorgeous.
Alex, great review, very comprehensive.
Just one question. You stated 0-60 for this model was 5.75sec. That seems a little better then I would have expected? What is your source for that? Thank you. BC
All my 0-60 times are based on my own testing.
NOONE is as thorough as Alex !
Alex, could you please review/comparison of the popular AWD systems? On slippery road conditions such as rainy, icy, snowy.
I'll see what I can come up with, I've been thinking about doing that for a while. I have written about the different systems in the past, here's a link to that: alexonautos.com/2014/04/25/alphabet-soup-4x4-vs-4wd-vs-awd-wheres-the-differential/
Absolutely Beautiful!!!!!
nice rev!!!!! thnx
gotta upvote the trunk comfort index
mercedes is doing good things at the moment
Can you do a review of the luxury version?
Is the less optioned screen the same as in the 2014 E350 or even smaller than that? I don't know if the big screen is worth it if it's just nav.
Beautiful!!!!!
I have a 328i and i prefer it to my friend's C300. Sure it's not as nice on the inside but it takes corners better, picks up faster, and looks better on the outside (in my opinion)
The only way that you're able to get the Burmester sound system is by adding the Premium package 2 to the vehicle, which mandates leather seats. So, this car does in fact have leather seats, at least it would according to the Mercedes website.
Would be good if you could list all the options
blows the garbage bmw 3 series and ATS/CTS out of the water
BMW 3 series is awesome what do you mean
You are right the c class is the best
No
Lol 😂
Both C class and 3 series are awesome cars and will always be german legends
Hi alex....can u do a review on C43
Please review the Acura TLX SH-AWD thx. I'm considering the new C400, IS350, and TLX SH-AWD.
ldawson103 I hope to have the TLX soon but I don't have any dates yet.
Must buy for trunk comfort
