2019 Mercedes-Benz C300 review: Cool and competent - CNET
The C in the Mercedes-Benz C-Class may as well stand for consistency. The compact C-Class sedan's competency stands alongside death and taxes on the list of life's guarantees, and a midcycle refresh for the 2019 model year solidifies its spot on that list. It adds a little more aggression in the bumpers, and combined with my tester's optional 18-inch AMG alloy wheels, the whole package looks sharper than the average C-Class without requiring the scratch for a proper AMG. The only bummer is that tight tolerances between the wheels and brakes means it's hard to clear them of snow after cruising through deep powder -- not something every C-Class buyer will experience, of course. The new steering wheel comes from the E-Class and S-Class , and I appreciate its straightforward, well-labeled layout that includes two small touch controllers for fast manipulation of both screens (12. 3 inches in the gauge cluster, 10. 25 inches... The seats are plenty comfortable, but the front seat heaters take forever to warm up and never really get that toasty. While the seats themselves are comfortable, rear-seat space is a little on the cramped side, especially if there are tall people seated up front. Source: CNET
