2017 Mercedes-Benz C-Class - Review and Road Test

Now that Mercedes-Benz's CLA handles entry-level duties for the tri-pointed star, the newest C-Class grows closer to its upscale stablemates and more competitive against the likes of the Audi A4, BMW 3-series, and Lexus IS. Has the C-Class become a wholly upmarket offering? KBB’s Micah Muzio finds out in this video.

this guy is one of the best reviewer of cars anywhere. great voice and upbeat light humor are stong points.

Not true He lied

[@steveedmond9362]

Great voice 🤣 NASALLY, HIGH PITCHED, TOO FAST

[@snow.white1937]

So it’s a 2017 car but the date the video was published says 2014???

[@Playb0ymari]

Faden Glover must be a 2015 model

[@EdilsonPaca]

That’s why I’m asking lmao

[@alexm2377]

I think every year they update the title

[@romariolewis4287]

he traveled to the future and brought back a c class to review it

[@huyvo467]

He prolly edit the video.

[@TheFinalElite]

This is a 2014/2015 C Class, the 2017 C Class has a different bumper first of all. Disliked for missleading title for just views

[@shayorrahman8733]

4:56 c400 has a twin turbo v6, not a naturally aspirated one

[@jwatwater]

My only issue with this, is the lack of radio pre-set buttons. I'm not sure why cars are trying to phase them out? That's the number one thing a driver probably messes with with driving. I just think a physical button is much safer than having to change different screens while driving.

[@ThePinoyMamba]

The baby S- Class!!! Well done

[@VaunShiz]

People can say what they want but these new C class are selling fast, I already see them everywhere

[@Sevan_UP]

Clous von they're so beautiful for a cheaper car from Mercedes

[@twai8036]

People just gotta stop complaining about price and be smarter at buying it cheaper... such as buying a gently used 2-3 year old model. You can get a 2015 C class for 25-30k. Isnt that the price of a new Chevy? Lol

[@QuangNguyen-ng5zh]

Iron Shaft yes, but with 30-40 thousand used miles versus new

[@Countcho]

Yea but mercedes are pricy to repair

[@danielmikhail2701]

I actually got really lucky. On 3/17/20 I purchased a 2016 Mercedes Benz C300 4Matic Sport for 25K. It was certified preowned with 20,000 miles on it. It is fully loaded. The only thing missing was distronic (Mercedes driver assistance tech). It has backup camera, navigation, Burmester sound, pano sunroof, AMG wheels 18 inch 5 spoke, sport tuned suspension, sporty body molding. The spec sheet I had showed the original MSRP was over 53K back in 2016. Since the car is certified by MB... they offer an extended year of warranty with unlimited miles and they gave me free complimentary maintenance at 30K miles (when I’m ready to get the 30K mile maintenance). I traded in my Nissan Leaf for this car. I had a lease and I was paying over 400 bucks a month on the Nissan Leaf, and I hated the leaf. It was cheap and yet the car was very expensive in price. The MSRP on the leaf was 44K. I put 4K down on the C300 and I’m paying $380 bucks a month for the MB C300. It’s a great car and since it was certified... Mercedes has all the service records for it. You can totally buy a C300 for a very reasonable price.

[@magictrin]

Haven't commented on KZbin since i started to watch. But i gotta mention this as a car enthusiast lol. C400 has a bi-turbo v6. No offense! I know you guys can make a mistake, you know we all are humans haha love and respect what you guys are doing and take care. by the way, Imma get c400 in future.

[@kingdevin9914]

U piece of shit asians know everything

[@adrianrubi5012]

If they don't like the back seat it's time for them to buy their own cars.

[@arnoldkibe3318]

Weeeeeeeeell.

[@mavismcneely7661]

solid

[@techieaddict]

I love your videos, but I think there's a mistake on the information being delivered? The C400 has a turbocharged engine, not normally aspirated engine, if I remember correctly. Besides that, keep up the good videos!

[@Guy_de_Loimbard]

Ya, there's no way in hell that V6 is naturally aspirated while spitting out 354 lb-ft of torque.

[@johnmarkson8215]

The four pot has a turbo, and all the diesels. The 6 banger is all fluid and natural.

[@Guy_de_Loimbard]

Lenny The Wizard Maybe in some other markets, but not in the USA. Here your options are a turbo 4 or a turbo 6.

[@johnmarkson8215]

Oh I see. Well there's nothing wrong with a turbo, they greatly improve driving.

[@Guy_de_Loimbard]

Lenny The Wizard Depends on who you ask. Some people prefer the more linear power delivery of a normally aspirated engine. As for me, I prefer the torque surge of a turbo motor, especially one that kicks in down low. Helps for scooting in and out of gaps in city traffic.

[@TBTrade]

I just can't get on board with how they place the nav in the car. It looks like someone rigged their ipad to work as a nav.

[@solomonshv]

it was done to keep the dashboard smaller. i have a 2013 c300 and the built in display sits inside a hump in the dashboard that reduces visibility.

[@kenwoodburn5244]

I love the “iPad look”

[@danielshamu8890]

Mercedes Benz, still have to drive these current gen Mercs but my old merc been so faithful to me through the thick & thin, Hope these youngsters keep the standard

[@truthkeeperfilms]

Mercedes is definitely picking it up. A lighter chassis is great. The previous model seemed a little ridiculous. The C300 looks amazing. Interior quality is something that Mercedes always benchmarks, although driving dynamics typically go to BMW. The new C-Class will sell a lot. Lots of great reviews. Mercedes ranked 2nd on JDPower Dependability lists. Mercedes is starting to take back its crown of a dependable, solid car.

[@zhongfaliao8148]

Very impressive review! it looks like the first video shot with the help of a drone I have ever seen!

[@abbylx]

nice drone camera at 5:25

[@juss7111]

Why isn't the backup camera standard in the base model? It seems like a cheap yet important feature.

[@SDav21]

juss7111 Because it isn't cheap. They don't just simply put some reversing camera on their cars. Look at the high resolution quality of Mercedes back up cameras and compare it to the rubbish in other cars and you'll see why a reverse camera isn't cheap in this case. It's not about just giving a feature but also the quality of that feature that matters. It has to be the best or nothing.

[@theengulfer]

I get that they would need to put a good camera in, but come on. A base model VW for half the money has a backup camera...

[@purplehazee90]

SDav21 backup cameras are standards in almost all cars even base models. For as much as Mercedes charge (or overcharge) for their brand/car, you think they would put one in since their customers pay so much.

[@Alex-bq3kp]

Plus it retracts so it doesn’t get damaged

[@firedude1Productions]

Its now standard

[@MeshalSS1]

More American? Is that a compliment or what?

[@Cchichester]

Meshal Mohammad laughed when he said that, I would say no its not a compliment.

[@JB88-]

+christian Chichester In this case it is a compliment. The new Cadillac Ats an Cts are phenomenal cars. A simple search will prove this. BUT... I'd still take the C400 Mercedes. It's a damn gorgeous machine!

[@Cchichester]

DiveDeep agreed

[@MeshalSS1]

+DiveDeep Well he said : The BMW (More Accelerating). The Audi (More retainable). The Lexus (More Responsible). And The Cadillac (More American). He said actual facts about The BMW, Audi and The Lexus. But on the other hand The Cadillac is more American?

[@JB88-]

+Meshal Mohammad Tell me, what do you think that means?

[@accountnumber90]

Punch Brothers at 3:04! My respect for you grows with each video, sir!

[@Dblyew]

Absolutely nailed it with that closing line. This right here offers the best blend of aesthetics and performance respectively, in my opinion. Let's see if that will still be the case when audi rolls out its new generation of A4s

[@mibrahim5215]

The best car made by Mercedes so far, sexy good looking, it pours quality from each inch its just AMAZING very very very well designed from inside out. Many thanks for your awesome review keep it on

[@94mac]

Errr... best car MB made lol not even close forgot about the E and S classes?

[@BelgiumGamingFull]

+Carl Clark Forgot about the Maybach? XD

[@chuck244422]

The sedan version would have looked 100x better with the coupe front.

[@Systolic120mmHg]

Not only is the nav screen something I don't like about this car, but I absolutely hate how their gearbox is now on the steering wheel where you would normally use the windshield wiper for.

[@itmustbelove08]

Can you all go back to using that old sound that you used when you first started doing these videos with Micah or could you send me the sound so I can use it when my text messages come in. I love that sound.

[@theladyshoes]

Insightful review. I was absolutely won over by this car and it was easy to jump ship from BMW to MB.

[@ozymandias7940]

How was this reviewed/posted 7 yrs ago when the car is only 5yrs old now???

[@BanBiofuels]

They Hyundai Elantra has a bigger trunk, gets better gas mileage, and has about the same interior space. The radio is also easier to use.

[@Wilbur-em1hw]

We have this product back here in India. Allow me to describe its quality. It has shoddy equipments that break down apace it still has that extortionate pricing. (Blame it on GST). I'll quicky elucidate GST. It is our taxation system. Right from its inception it has deterred buyer and potential buyers alike. Our govt believes that we undeserving of anything they offer. Maybe I am digressing from the topic at hand. It exasperates me. I can't find any plausible explanation as to why the govt has to extortionately tax a commodity that is quite common in other parts of the world.

[@vedanttaneja8578]

Matt 958 a commodity like this is common in rich developed nations like USA hence the amount of tax is less whereas India is a poor nation where majority people don’t pay taxes hence they’ve to make up for it by taxing the rich

[@Wilbur-em1hw]

@@vedanttaneja8578 Actually its called unequal distribution of wealth. Politicians want to feed on the gullibilty of the masses. Employment n renumeration is a hassle in India. Good posts for fewer people. Government has also banned the use of sensors on the Indian variant. Most of the US features don't make it to India. Indians hv their mind fixated on fuel economy hence they miss the fun.

[@vedanttaneja8578]

Matt 958 not the Indians fault in USA gasoline or as we call it petrol is like 2 dollars a gallon. A gallon consists of 4 litres approx which is about 30 rs a litre whereas in India it’s 90 bucks a litre so obviously Indians want a fuel efficient car because even a fucking hatchback in India is a gas guzzler

[@TheLifetraveler1]

I must admit I have never been a fan of Mercedes-Benz. One I always thought the people who drove them where pretentious. Also when I was in Europe and realize that over there they really don't cost much more than a regular sedan I kept thinking that they were ripping us off here in the United States. However, I finally had a chance to rent a Mercedes Benz C Class 2018 with 687 miles on it. Here in the Fort Lauderdale area. I must admit after 2 days I will say the car is solid feels like you're sitting inside of a vault, it is that quiet. The steering itself is extremely accurate the nose goes where the steering wheel is pointed. However the Audi A4 which I drove a few weeks earlier has even better and more accurate steering and it's a little bit lighter. The interior as well as very solid there isn't much fake looking plastic everything feel soft to the touch you feel like you are in a luxury car. However I would say the same thing for the Audi so in this core the interior's feel the same however I like the Audi layout a lot better. the instrument panel and the entertainment system are a lot simpler on the Audi. I spent 3 days with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and I still couldn't figure out the radio so I had to use Bluetooth for all of my entertainment as well as for my cell phone calls. Last thing, both of these cars are considered compact luxury cars but the Mercedes-Benz felt definitely more claustrophobic I had to move my seat a lot further back from the windshield in order to feel comfortable and I'm 6 feet 2 inches tall. There was no room of any significance in the back seat once I moved my front seat to a comfortable position. The Audi A4 was definitely more comfortable and felt more spacious inside for the driver. I would say both of these cars are excellent cars the question is whether you want the Mercedes-Benz 3 pointed star or you want the slightly extra grin factor of the Audi A4.

[@startingtech3900]

bout to buy 2015 Mercedes Benz c300 AMG package SAT wish me luck!

[@edgarjvj]

Your videos are the best!

[@jasonomnia9295]

Are European cars are reliable? I don't follow cars much nor do I know much about them. But I've been starting to like Mercedes and Audi luxury car the more I watched them. But I also read comments on videos with people saying Euro cars are not reliable.

[@ArseneLupin786]

Everyone has their own view. If you find a consensus on a car then avoid it. Otherwise go ahead with what you like.

[@Ante_Knezevic]

Audi and Mercedes are in top most reliable cars on the planet. They are beautiful premium machines.

[@InfamousMedia]

i got an 04 mercedes this month and i love it. it oozes class and quality engineering, you won't understand how great the Germans make a car (I didn't) until you drive it

[@jimmyjay122]

You can't generalize by saying "European cars". That being said the Germans easily come on top when considering European car makers. You sure can't go wrong with an Audi or a Benz.

[@jimmyjay122]

They are beautiful and quite intelligently engineered yet they're not necessarily the most reliable cars in the market. They're surely superior in reliability and build quality of French, Italian and British cars, but if we were to consider reliability, Japan's Toyota and Lexus for example are superior over the long run granted they score less in the luxury box.

[@LambdaQuarks]

I like the more solid and box like look of the W204 previous models. This one has a decent front end that we have seen on the latest E class and CLA already which is not bad but the rear looks like a Hyundai from half a decade ago. The interior however ( I've drive and sat in a c300) is very nice, the tacky screen is annoying and silly but the dash never felt cheap anywhere else. I think I may just look for a 2014 W204.

[@xKiLLzZx1]

says 2017 c-class but was uploaded in 2014. Thumbs down

[@joaoesteves684]

Can you give me your opinion on the trunk of this car, how many liters?Do not you think the little trunk?

[@Mejeurjm1]

At 5:27 I see a drone. Is that a DJI Phantom Aerial with GoPro?

I'm have to look more closely next time. I still can't see them within the headlight cluster.

[@mikeaguirre23]

Comparing with the Chevy Malibu 2016 which one will you pick.

[@lowfat1969]

Would someone please agree that the tablet mounted on the dash is cheap and pour design.

[@logant7985]

They might as well mount a Lap top to the to the dash

[@kenwoodburn5244]

I love it, it looks so much more classy and sleek!

[@QuangNguyen-ng5zh]

Not as bad as some others (i.e. 2017 Audis), but point taken

[@taylortran134]

Could you please do a review on an Audi A5 convertible or Mercedes E convertible

[@TylerF35A]

It's great for those who want a little more out of their everyday drive. But the 2017 E Class, which will debut in the next few months, promises a lot more.

[@andrewyang9095]

Why would you get an E class when you can get any other car in its class with more refinement, technology and modernity, for a lower price?

[@TylerF35A]

+Andrew Yang Pft! Good one XD Like what, a Camry? Nothing touches the A6 and E-Class in the executive segment.

[@andrewyang9095]

Kevin Metz The A6 is definitely nice, but the E class just ruins everything this year. It makes it look like you just couldn't afford to get an S Class, but you want one

[@TylerF35A]

+Andrew Yang The E-Class is more practical and has historically been a very well-proportioned car. It is, contrary to what the naysayers say, also very reliable, more so than the S-Class, which is an amazing car in it's own regard. I've had a few E-Classes and wouldn't choose anything else. As for looks, the current design of MB is understated elegance, but out of the ordinary.

[@andrewyang9095]

Being more reliable than an S Class is like saying the word apple starts with a. Can't list any car that is more unreliable. E Class however.... is also unreliable. Maybe second most unreliable car..... I can bet you 100 bucks that if MB was Korean, it would have sunk a long time ago. They have nothing special about the brand, their powertrains or interior. The only special qualities are in the S Class, and those special qualities break down within a few months anyway. Throwing money at a fire sounds fun at the beginning, and gets even more fun as time goes on.

[@MaestroWenarto]

I thought Thomas (autogefuhl) was good, but he is boring, Micah.....funny! love his witty review

[@christiandouglas9006]

Honestly I'm really thinking about purchasing one i currently have 2010 Audi Q7 which i just payed off and i genuinely believe i need a smaller which should i get Mercedes Benz C Class or Jaguar Xf.

[@Mocha_the_Corgi]

It is a nice little car.

[@lalore8083]

nice turn

[@boi1996]

This is car is like nearly twice the price in my country

[@Jorge0lvera]

Is it gas efficient? I'm thinking about buying one in a few weeks and everywhere I look, it doesn't tell me about the "gas facts" idk lol. I just think the car looks nice. thank you if you tell meh though haha

[@DaisyVanEgmond]

I find the materials and buttons a little cheap looking. But that's alright it doesn't bother me.

[@coureurdebois]

sorry BMW and cadillac models both look better exterior wise... though i think the C class interior may take the top of those other two.

[@shobin05]

lol, no, i dont like mercedes but they have absolutely murdered the competition when it comes to exterior styling. When the new bmw 3 series came into our country nobody, literally nobody noticed it, only a few owners of the old 3 series did. everyone else thought it was just the old 3 series.

[@danielmaia3559]

The benz interior is better except for the ridiculous central display

[@VishalShahREAL]

no doubt. i do like the interior of the 4 series more though. especially if you get M Sport package.

[@chuck244422]

Yeah true if you drive a Mercedes people think you are rich. And if you drive anything below a 6 series people assume its the cheap 3 series.

[@shobin05]

Great car but why the inside door locks are so ugly and economy car like?

[@SaturdayCarFever]

Good question buddy. I never look at them though ;)

[@michaelelguerito8272]

In other countries European cars are much more reliable due to better ownership Americans think that just because it's a European car that they should not do much maintenance on the car!

[@cesarcortes4010]

The crazy Nun so true I used to be a Benz technician I was shocked at how poorly neglected a lot the cars were and the owners just very ignorant and cheap quite sad really.

[@krisnabhagaskara]

[@KCMrecordings]

And yet here we are with Lexuses and Chevy's that go 200k, 500k, and 1 million miles. While I agree that most people don't take care of their cars properly, don't excuse the germans lack of reliability on it when the rest of the industry is making cars that last.

Like it did on my S420 with only 67,000 miles on it.. And my Neighbors S500 that is only 9 years old and with terrible Clear Coat peel.. Sad.. So sad.. And this is the tip of the ice berg.. No more Mercedes for me... You will need 5-10k in the bank to keep them on the road no matter the cosmetics..

[@cadsux]

Basically the least reliable luxury brand. 2014 Consumer Reports Reliability Survey by owners for vehicles 2004 to present ranked Mercedes-Benz #24 out of 28 car brands. Only Dodge, Ram, Jeep, and Fiat ranked below that.

[@juukame]

cadsux Hmm, that's surprising; JD Power has Mercedes ranked as 2nd in terms of reliability. And it's been within top 5 for a number of years now.

[@cadsux]

juukame JD Powers conducted its survey of 41,000 vehicles per year (of 2011 model year cars after 3 yrs of ownership), versus Consumer Reports 1.1 million vehicles per year since 2003. Bear in mind the past partnership with Chrysler.

[@juukame]

cadsux Are you saying that there are still signs of the shoddy build quality in Mercs due to their partnership back then? That is, does Merc's past reliability scoring from the Chrysler days weigh into their current score now ? Also, what does the CR survey list as the main problems with Mercs? Is it actual mechanical issues or just infotainment problems? I'm genuinely curious since I was looking at getting a Merc soon. As long as it's mechanically sound I can live with a slightly wonky infotainment. Coming from a 99 ML 320 (probably the least reliable Merc ever) I'm no stranger to high repair costs so that's my primary concern.

[@cadsux]

Yes and no. In 2013, they ranked #13, so the 2014 models resulted in the drop to #24, with the CLA being the worst model, followed by the GL and S-Class. The problems vary with each model. The CLA had powertrain, body and electrical problems; the GL had powertrain and brake issues, and the S had suspension, brakes and body issues. Although infotainment issues are included in the surveys, powertrain and other mechanical issues factor more heavily into the equation. Consumer Reports did list the E-Class and GLK as a recommended buy. Regardless of "below average reliability" across the brand over the years, owner satisfaction was "better than average". Always buy a car that puts a smile on your face.

[@dukemarkjohn12]

Is this colour palladium silver?

As long as it has a button for Tow truck.. You should make it to the shop anyway.... Then home with a cab...

[@GaragedeDelgado]

What version is that?

[@jimmyjay122]

I believe that most of the video was done using the one with the AMG package. Some of the unmistakable exterior feature of the AMG package would be the chrome lip on the front bumper, the diffuser and the twin exhaust outlets. As for the interior it would be the flat based steering wheel.

[@DSNCB919]

This video title is misleading

[@noho_hank7627]

In the mid-sized luxury sedan class, the 2016 Acura TLX has better safety features and standards, better user-friendly touchscreen, better handling, REAL leather seats, more spacious backseats, less costly maintenance, and you can get one for almost 8k less than a Mercedes C-Class. It amazes me how some people will buy an inferior product only for the brand.

[@grantschneider926]

The acura is boring to drive and look at. Come on now, its inexpensive and is a tech bargain but if flunks out in all the other categories

[@noho_hank7627]

+Grant Schneider you're boring to drive and look at

[@andrewyang9095]

+mellamopoogy2 With this car, you do get a better interior and exterior, with a more premium feel. With the Acura, all you get is value and reliability. They both however, in my book have infotainment systems that are competing for last place. They are so ugly and outdated.

[@zhengjustin3044]

Same deal with iPhone. There's something called brand value.

[@emansone]

[@NKase-vy1kf]

Weeeeak!!! The unless you look towards the E-class the brand makes a weak entry level vehicle. Want performance and driving experience, go with BMW. Want technology and front wheel drive, choose Audi. All offer great speakers and surround sound. If this was the benchmark of entry level luxury sedans then it would have been called a 3-series.

Money pit

[@TheLanard]

OMG!! I should've bought this instead of my Lincoln MKZ.

[@jacobdanassis3292]

this is a real luxury saloon Lincoln is no match in anything

[@TheLanard]

Jacob danassis I take it back. First year reliability of this C-Class is bad, while my Lincoln has been trouble free. And I get free lifetime oil changes. I also don't have to worry about paying thousands for simple maintenance.

[@jacobdanassis3292]

TheLanard well i give you that And i also think the mkz is great Just not the caliber of the cclass quality and fit&finish Btw i have a 2014 lincoln Mkt I love it but there are complaints

[@TheLanard]

I agree on the fit and finish of the Benz, and the possibility of their cars becoming classics in the future over Lincolns. It's just every coworker I know with one told stories of repairs costing thousands. That scares me away.

[@jacobdanassis3292]

TheLanard yeah stay away from the ML and cla/gla The others are much better

[@victornine1010]

Anyone actually own one of these? How do they drive, how is the quality, reliability/repair cost, etc? Curious.

[@gazzablanca]

I own one. It's a good car to drive. Solidly built and well finished. Service costs are not too bad. 10k cost me $145.00 It's been very reliable to date and fun to drive.

[@ItsWendie]

Quality of a German car is second to none, holds its value well and great miles per gallon (I've owned Audi BMW & now a c class)

[@victornine1010]

+Lurganista BMW/Mercedes get the best mileage vs Audi I believe, but I hear BMW has a bad record when it comes to maintenance. BMW/Mercedes I just feel are a bit overpriced, as the new Audi A4 gets quite the add on for the price. Not sure what I'll end up getting later, as good work/money is hard to come by.

Great car, I just got one last week and instantly fell in love with pretty much everything. I don't feel like it's overpriced judging from the quality of every part of the car, check it out yourself and you'll see. MB, BMW and Audi, I feel like MB is ahead of the other 2, BMW came close second with Audi as a far 3rd.

[@rogergeyer9851]

Consumer Reports predicts these will be much worse than average in reliability, based on their surveys.

I use the rotary knob, my fingers are too sticky/cold for the track. I am glad I stripped out the chrome detail..too shiny for my taste. There are enough silver cars in my neighborhood. I don't want to look like a grandma (nothing against grandmas). I just reviewed my 1st car. Check out my C300..."Like" me too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5yxopqih5dpo7s
