Mercedes-Benz displayed a number of different models at their stand in Melbourne for the Australian International Motor Show, but the new C-Class Coupe sees Mercedes enter a new market segment.
The new C-Class included typical coupe features such as short front overhang, long bonnet, steeply raked windscreen and long, stretched-out roof. The greenhouse extends far beyond the rear axle over the low-raked rear window to a sportily short tail end. At the front, the new coupé shares the same styling as the latest C-Class. There is a choice of three petrol and one diesel engine variants to power the CClass Coupé. The automatic transmission features the further-enhanced 7GTRONIC PLUS seven-speed automatic transmission as standard across the range.
The C-Class Coupé will be available in Australia from August 2011.
