IMHO. hope it wont end up competing with let say civic. haha... save petrol maa. thought the current c class is the latest, so fast roll out new planning. it hurt. unless they trying to hit price far lesser than the current c200k that cost about 235k. cutting weight on MB and cutting the power as well…

Dont make me laugh. How was the test done? On the highway at constant speed on overdrive at 70km/h? Im guessing the 3.5L V6 version is gonna average about 13-14L/100km in typical commuter (city/highway) driving. 6.5l/100km? Dont make me laugh.

I'm pretty sure they increase the force induction capacity to the engine, which I think has no much FC difference from that of using the original 1.8L engine. a commendable effort overall.
