Why did everyone hate the tablet? I like it in my c300

[@ssmgent7445]

I want this car so bad💯

[@derekwebster8442]

You can get a Great deal on these used. A ton are for sale in my area for between 22,000 to 30,000$

[@Sammie551]

Doesn't have a day time running strip though

[@calvinfan6330]

Why does it still have a tabletttttttttt!!!!!!!!!

[@dnavas7719]

That tablet makes the whole interior look cheap.

[@spreadeagled5654]

I own a 2018 C300 and I love it ! ❤️. I’m accustomed to the iPad monitor display screen on the dashboard because I own an iPad. I don’t have the Multimedia Package because I have the Apple Car Play instead which is much easier to use. 👍.

[@MisterM-ow6qk]

Those headlights look awful. Go back to the old headlights these look like 1980s.

[@Tahara-Aichi]

Mike R agree! Car manufactures are still using the antiquated halogen lights to make a profit

[@jaylifestlye5417]

Great review! Does it have Ambient Lighting?

[@hechler444]

This dude haircut

[@tonytang8165]

Just got 2018 one in Canada. I choose all packages but still do not have Apple Carplay. Sad...

[@Tahara-Aichi]

I've noticed that in Canada all car makers sell their vehicles with basic trim levels while in the US, the same models are equipped better.

[@bitmastermac]

On my US c300...

[@pdav00]

This is a 2017

[@itoro22]

Omgosh, enough with the iPad. When are they going to remove it?

[@kotmark]

Great review!!! Unlike many similar, filmed from different angles, inside and out (not just the person who tells and shows more of "himselfloved" than actually the car). However, during the viewing I did not leave the feeling that the seat should not be quite conveniently adjusted under this driver, it's too leaned back and does not support his back. I just think he should be very uncomfortable with this adjustment?

[@Moonlight0810]

same as my 2017 one....no change.....

[@mikebetancourt6403]

Had a better transmission

[@zmoney9]

2018 got the 9 speed tronic trans, apple CarPlay and android auto

[@k.n.2081]

the ugly tablet has not changed yet

[@itoro22]

That's what I said too. I don't get the iPad with this car. Smh

[@CraftyWheel87]

@@itoro22 Sadly a trend in the automotive industry.

[@anonymous60668]

Very well done sir

[@Smailmercedesbenz]

[@Geoblek1]

[@jasonvoorhees3666]

Oh my ghosh Mercedes is still waiting for it to be either integratrd in the front console or ATLEAST put a better looking like AUDI and not this TOY silly foolish looking tablet. Apaprt from this its a great interior undoubtedly. would buy it anyday ..

[@BlaziNTrades]

Disliked for camping in the passing lane

[@nelsonmei9527]

I will not buy this car because of this ugly tablet.

[@mikebetancourt6403]

You cant afford it 😂

[@nelsonmei9527]

@@mikebetancourt6403 I can't believe people can still see my comment from 4 years ago.

[@Omar-eh3kf]

plastic bezels !!!!

[@user-vn6ol1jn9l]

thats not 2018, 2018 has a track pad and wider screen

[@Smailmercedesbenz]

Thanks for watching, black titan! It actually is a 2018, you may be confusing your trim levels.

[@owenstaples7413]

No Titan is right, was realised at LA auto show

[@igeekone]

This is a 2018. You'll have to get the MULTIMEDIA package for the bigger (8.4in) display. The car shown has the base screen.
