Mercedes Benz, the brand has been synonymous with luxury for decades now. The 2022 Mercedes C-Class sustains this and is surely the best C-Class yet! The baby S-Class has always been the sort of “mid-range” luxury car for someone on a budget. Over the years, the C-Class has evolved into a beautiful machine, that now definitely looks like a mini S-Class.

What does it look like?
The 2022 Mercedes C-Class looks very similar to the new S-Class. Of course, it is not as huge, but the similarities are uncanny. The elegant, classy yet aggressive design language is very vocal. Sleek lines and lights that are beautifully integrated with the body make the car look like a smooth piece of marble. Needless to say, Mercedes has, yet again, nailed the design on the C-Class.

What does the inside look like?
The inside looks super-premium with leather finishes and soft touches all around. The centre of attention is of course the all-new 11.9-inch portrait-style infotainment unit that literally controls the whole car. The 2022 Mercedes C-Class has taken a leap in technology. Everything in the car is touch-controlled, even the buttons for the electric seats are capacitive. This may be a pro for someone, and a con for someone, choose your poison. The all-new steering wheel also gets all touch controls to toggle through the 12.3-inch digital driver display. It also gets dual sunroofs that bring in a lot of airiness and light into the cabin.
