C-Class Electric in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the W520 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Electric is previewed in Malaysia ahead of this generation’s 2027 launch. The current Malaysian proposition is the C300 4Matic AMG Line Plus, with an 85 kWh battery, 690 km WLTP range, 416 hp, all-wheel drive and a two-speed automatic. It is a single-variant range rather than a spread of battery or drivetrain options.

Verdict

The C-Class Electric arrives with serious headline numbers: 416 hp, all-wheel drive and a claimed 690 km WLTP range from its 85 kWh battery. The two-speed automatic also marks it out from the many single-speed electric cars. But RM360,888 buys only one specification, leaving buyers without a lower-priced route into the W520 range. It is a focused, high-output electric compact executive sedan.
