As of today, Mercedes has begun taking bookings for the 2022 C-Class in India. The luxury sedan will be introduced to the market on 10th May.
Interestingly, the German marque says that between 13th and 30th April, existing customers can book the BMW 3-Series rival, while others can do so from 1st May.
The 2022 Mercedes C-Class bookings are open for the C200 and C300d variants, while the bookings for the C220d variant will begin later although all 3 grades will be available at launch.
Mercedes has set the token amount to book the new generation C-Class (code-named W206) at Rs. 50,000/-. Remember, the car is going to set foot on Indian soil more than a year after its global unveil took place.
The fifth-generation C-Class, comes with all-new design inside and out and with tonnes of new age features and safety tech, with many borrowed directly from the S-Class.
For example, the car has a 12.3-inch digital cluster, an 11.9-inch touchscreen for the MBUX infotainment system, and several other inside and top-notch LED lights on the exterior.
The C200 has a 1.5-litre petrol motor making 201 HP and 300 Nm when it comes to the powertrain. The C220d uses a 2.0-litre motor delivering 197 HP and 440 Nm.
Finally, the C300d uses the same oil burner but with higher outputs of 261 HP and 550 Nm. All the engines have an integrated starter-generator (ISG) and come teamed to a 9-speed automatic gearbox.
More details about the India-spec models of the luxury sedan should arrive in the coming weeks and the arrival of the baby S-Class could shake things up in the luxury sedan market.
