Car Tech - 2015 Mercedes Benz C400 4MATIC

[@Sunny2456-]

Wow these changes are radical. The fact that it has a twin turbo system is huge. Great horsepower and torque numbers for a c class. I'm not exactly a fan of the back because it looks too short, but the shape is still nice. I saw one of these on the highway a few weeks ago with a dealer plate and it looked stunning. You still can't beat the styling of the w210 '96 e class chassis. That looks like a proper luxury car.

[@AnyTechReviews]

We actually just got one of these today as a courtesy car while the C-Coupe was in for a service. It's a really nice car, and a massive step up.

[@Jarl_69]

Why do these car reviews seem rushed as of late? I want to see Cooley talk freely and not be chopped & edited to fit a 5min video...

[@Cynchronia]

I hear you bro. I could barely enjoy this one. I was surprised when he showed price 1 minute in - I thought maybe the format had changed

[@Jarl_69]

gametocken If people don't want to watch a long video, they can click away half way through...

[@lctb51]

2007 is calling, it wants it's 720p resolution back!

[@jonnyspace50]

Sound quality is good tho

[@redwolf48845]

The maps used in the GPS are absolutely beautiful. My grandpa drives a 2013 S550 who's screens aren't as nice.

[@StickyJalapeno]

it's just as fast as the 2015 Mustang gt

[@07copilot]

What happened to the longer reviews?

[@h80282]

I like how this man explain👍

[@BigAngeloSantorini]

I noticed the windshield issue mentioned at 4:40 when i test drove the w205. Those were very early models. It is strange that the same issue still exists? I read from net that the defect only concerns US made cars as the windshields in those cars are made by an US subcontractor. However, i test drove the car with the defective windshield in Europe. But again the test drive cars were early versions.

[@Mb789x]

It depends on the build date, he must of had an early build date.

[@mohammedelkassas3725]

I'm in love with Mercedes 💃💕

[@keno.3043]

I love this car and its actually affordable!

[@JDMHaze]

Kenneth Owens $58 K is affordable?? lol

[@MaazDaWaaz]

@Stormer248 true saw one with 50000 miles or 23k it was a 2015

[@brunofernandes2924]

Man this in Europe they are like 15k € used with 150k kilometers = +/- 93k miles But the salary in Europe arent the same that in US Here the normal salary is from 150€ a week to 400/600€ a week (in the rich countrys) and the prices are equal to the prices in USA, from food to houses So I would prefere pay the full price in America with the average salary there. Europe is like America in 1991 🙄😂

[@Fitzger00]

How come Cnet doesn't talk about the processors and memory of the onboard computer? A lot of those damn things are slow, I'd like to know how they stack up.

[@pwoo124]

Any reason for the shorter reviews now?

[@TheCuriousNoob]

So... why are voice functions optional this day and age?

[@boomafoo9]

Agee

[@Htc00100]

i like how they show the price in the very beginning now

[@ruzzelladrian907]

Beautiful Mercedes-Benz design.

[@grmancool]

There is not a car I want more than this. Is there any giveaway on it?

[@elbarrigon7155]

Yea. Just give me you Name, Address, SSN, and Bank Number. Lol

[@alexschmidt1131]

Audi A9 10 times better than this

[@tstraw48]

Alex Schmidt Not even in the same league. While we're at it I'd like the Red Bull X2014 please.

[@shopwithaaron]

Seem to remember similar comments during your review of the new Genesis regarding the head up display wonkiness...eye exam upcoming?? Love all your reviews btw.

[@dominic18000]

$60,000 for a c class?!? How is that affordable? Also could we get back to showing the price and options of the car towards the end of the video please. It's much better.

[@nappiral]

If you want entry level get a CLA, C class has moved up market.

[@alvinmwangi]

nappiral which is basically an A class with a trunk btw

[@MBAMG65]

Comparing with a similarly equipped BMW 335 xDrive, the C400 4MATIC is actually a bit cheaper. The C-Class appears to be expensive because initially only the high trims were introduced. There are cheaper models now and pricing is on par with competitors, except at the very low end MB does not offer low-output turbo-4 models like BMW 320 and A4 CVT

[@vh9network]

They took away the C250 which was the most affordable C-Class. Its still in production with the new W205 models but not sold to USA. Europe even has a really inexpensive new C-Class the C200, never to see the light of the day in the Western hemisphere.

[@stevej6629]

Actually you don't need the heads up display. The one I priced out was $54K and had more than enough..beat prices on S4 and 3 series by a long shot

[@justanoldvolvocrusingaround]

I cannot believe this car in 10 years old. Now these cars have aged beautifully. If only you know how bad the new Mercedes are.

[@angel_machariel]

720p but the resolution doesn't to reflect that. How come?

[@jonnyspace50]

I like price at the end

[@prl08]

This is an extremely nice car, but it's almost intruding on the E class (especially in terms of price). Also, this video seems a bit short and cut off.

[@BoothsEurotrash]

The E-Class starts at $51,800, and that is for a 4 cylinder diesel with vinyl seats. To get an E-Class with this engine, you would start at $62,000, nevermind the media, pano roof, etc.

[@jasonharris765]

They are also re-designing the E-Class, so that gap will probably widen.

[@melvin3r512]

wait a minute...if its a 3 liter, why Benz labeled it as the C400? Shouldnt it be C300?

[@carblader4254]

All the numbers on Mercedes have become irrelevant over the last couple generations. The C63 and E63 don't have 6.3 liter engines and the S550 has a 4.7 liter while the S65 only has a 6.0 liter.

[@carblader4254]

tttdolph How does that make sense?

[@soiceyboy33]

Some may say it's a good thing, but I really don't like this same design, different length philosophy. Its the same thing that used to piss me off with Audi but now Mercedes is doing it. Like you really can't tell if it's a C,E or S class till you look at it from the side profile. I miss the days where each car had its own character. I also don't like the stupid Nav systems, they look so aftermarket and cheesy with the meter-wide bezels. You might as well stick an iPad mini right onto the dash. What happened to the days of the beautifully integrated nav screens?

[@Moisesmora10]

What good cars can I buy under $20000? I need help on buying a new car.

[@alex91008]

Make the reviews longer!!! What's with the 3 min videos lately? You can barely get enough info into that.

[@craqqer]

The new C class E class and S class all look too similar now. They just like different sizes of the same car. I'm talking about exterior, interiors are different.

[@ChrisLeiter]

craqqer The S and C, I agree, very similar. I parked next to an S550 recently, and aside from the obvious size difference, it took me a second to realize it was an S, not a C. The E is still a bit more angular.

[@akadanielmaia]

If this tiny screen is the biggest they have I don't wanna even see the smaller one

[@Mb789x]

It's actually 8.4 inches. In person it looks bigger. It's big enough.

[@efthimios]

That year selector on the wiper blade steering column freaks me out - is he worried for my wife to drive that - hoping someone can't accidentally throw it in reverse or park on the freeway

[@bvedant]

Is he reviewing this in his driveway?

[@tax905972]

c class is not a kia or Honda or Camry .there' s a lot of tech in these cars you don't see.Take the transmission ,start stop ,headlights with their own mind etc.

[@KCMrecordings]

+duane howard dude, kias these days have start stop, nav, hid adaptive headlights, forward collision, and... a transmission. MB's price tags are because of brand and country

[@MrQooje2]

+Karun Chendrimada 100% agree with you even though i am an audi fan myself.

[@tax905972]

Karun Chendrimada Safety .Crash a KIA and die crash a benz and walk away .

[@tax905972]

Lets not forget resale.

[@KCMrecordings]

duane howard Unless the kia gets like a 3 star or less, the crash wont be drastically different. Do you think kias are made of cardboard or someshit? Some kias are bigger than the c class, and may even be better for safety. Stop blindly defending your badge, or come up with some actual proof

[@regalgs51]

Column mounted stupid, non-sporty gear shifter = absolute deal breaker. And that applies to almost all Mercedes.

[@tepeke88]

Brian 5 min is not enough time for a car review!!!!! Haha anyway i agree, i love the new c class and its baby s class looks BUT 60k???

[@kcirreb94]

why is the rear so high

[@ELGlueckert]

I believe it was due to the air suspension.

[@Mb789x]

It's not, it's the way the car was parked on uneven surface.

[@ChrisLeiter]

Mb789x My C400 sits high on a hill, but in the garage, it's flat and proportional to what you'd expect to see on a sporty sedan

[@Y4nkyJ4tt]

3.5 L v6 only for e class now love my c350

[@jmm5346]

+Yanky Jatt C-Class is shit. thats why it gets a big fat C-

[@andrewyang9095]

+J Montague But doesn't that mean that the S Class has a S-?

[@Lucky8s]

In some games, S is considered higher tier than A.

[@stevenmendezstevenmendez1258]

it is not bad considering this car is a c class I thank this car is cool because there are more technology in todays cars than in the past c class Mercedes Benz. the car warns you if you are out of the lane by making the steering wheel vibrates or moving the car out of the lane. 0-60 in 4.6 sec. but the bad thing about the car is that when you are moving the car the navigating and the speedometer that is on the wind shield gets blurry

[@julinization]

Not paying 60k for this, granted its nice, but 50K+ worth, that's a lot of change for a c class.

[@BF3blog]

$50 grand for a C-Class? Just a few years ago you could get a new E-Class for that money.

[@chasenisamazing]

you still can a new e class starts at $51,800 BF3blog

[@tejas1205]

The C400 is top of the line. There are cheaper versions with smaller engines available.

[@alex91008]

C-class has moved upmarket. It you want a cheaper car look at the cla.

[@Narrowcros]

This new C-class looks better than the E-class and has a better interior, its odd but it appears to be true.

[@jayz3d]

Tejas Tasgaonkar C63 is top of the line

[@hamfish225]

the hell do they even make 10GB hard drives for anymore???

[@007gwizz]

They are ripping them out of old dos machines from when I was just both a sperm and an egg.

[@Cynchronia]

007gwizz *dead*

[@osamaFXX]

58000? for a C-class?

[@Mb789x]

Worth every penny if you ask me. I'be had my c400 fully loaded for 2 months now and I'm glad I didn't go for the 435 instead.

[@ChrisLeiter]

Mb789x I cross shopped the 435 myself, and went with the C400 as well. The 435 is a far more 'tossable' car, but the c400 is much better to live with day to day. no regrets, favorite car I've ever owned.

[@TheGarvito]

ill take this in AMG flavor please

[@khanhnguyen-gr8jv]

how does this get more MPG than lexus is 350

[@vanhanliiton7232]

More torque

[@TvOnceMr]

C450 AMG OR C400 4MATIC?

[@jijdom]

Golden Boy92 they are the same car with same engine. the real difference is that the C450/C43 AMG has a little more HP and is stiffer and has a better exhaust note.

[@carvlogs101]

That gear shift is stupid because I could take it for a signal light

[@Lucky8s]

Trust me, you won't.

[@InAntWeTrust]

beautiful

[@andresg01]

If I am not mistaking, CNet did a review on the Kia Soul long time ago. I was remembering it had some tacky cabin lights. Now turns out Mercedes Benz has the same lights, in their new cars and now its cool. To me it still very tacky! Mercedes copying Kia's options? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

[@likeasambud9817]

This comment didnt age well. Now all luxury cars have ambient lighting and they look gorgeous.

[@fcknjames]

Expensive as hell for a c class.

[@Mb789x]

You get what you pay for.

[@JDMHaze]

Mb789x yeap EXPENSIVE CAR,, EXPENSIVE REPAIR LOL

[@pius_xiv]

Why have these videos seemed so interlaced? Gahh. The lines are unnerving.

[@Vic292]

That LED strip on the front looks stupid.

[@h80282]

4.6 seconds from 0-60 that's means it will beat the new Mustang 5.0

[@brandiraczynski2029]

+h80282 off by a tenth but why are you comparing those? not even in the same universe not even for the upcoming coupe

[@MrQooje2]

You never ever compare an AWD to a RWD. Mustang is sports car while Benz is a class car.

[@MrQooje2]

You never ever compare an AWD to a RWD. Mustang is sports car while Benz is a class car.

[@mvkmvk4099]

CPO half price

[@noobkosh]

why this guy's videos are shorter than they used to he cant review a car in 5 mins hes reviews used to be more comprehensive but now theyre too short

[@VellanSubrumaniam]

Mercedes 2015??? Y no APPLE CARPLAY???

[@joshuaoblon2105]

Those are not very impressive numbers, two turbo chargers on a 3 liter v6 and only 329 hp? Cadillac's 3.6 v6 makes 321 without turbos, and their twin turbo v6 makes 420 hp.

[@BoothsEurotrash]

.6 liters smaller is a big difference in those engines. Besides, look at the torque figures if you really want to understand the performance of this car vs. a CTS. This will eat both CTS engines alive. And it isnt much slower than a supercharged V8 CTS.

[@joshuaoblon2105]

Brent Booth How will this "eat them alive" if the Caddy's engine's bigger, has more torque and hp. Cadillac's is 420 hp and 430 torque. Also keep in mind that the CTS is quicker than this, which considering that the cts is a bigger car overall is impressive. And don't get ahead of yourself, this is over half a second slower than a cts-v which is quite a bit if you want to break it down.

[@PRINCE_SWAGG]

Sweet, i like.

[@lordtrini]

60K for a C Class...

[@pseudos1436]

Brian.........hmmm,

[@donkeydicked]

Seriously no one cares about fuel economy buying a car at this price point ... Its irrelevant. Buy a Prius if you can't afford fuel

[@iwearleatherjackets1]

donkeydicked A brand new Prius isn't exactly what you'd call cheap either.

[@hondajohn6948]

Funny mercedes copied volvos water fall center stack.

[@jesuisimam]

I hate to do this but... FIRST!!!

[@zxbc1]

Obviously you didn't hate it enough to control yourself.

[@jesuisimam]

True

[@Ballista762]

Yea the bezel ruins it for me.

[@MF-pm5dh]

love this car but the way the screen is so oddly placed is very ridiculous. why can't benz just change it? is it to cut costs? well, the audi's navi screen is able to stow away, the bmw's is built into the dash..c'mon seriously. almost a slap in the consumer's face in this price point lol. this actually bothers me b/ this car was in my budget and i was honestly going to purchase this but decided to go with the audi s4. why? b/ I looked into the 2016 Benz C450 amg and wow man---they STILL did not change the design/placement of the screen. yea, it might be a small detail but the screen is in your face and something you have to look at every time you drive the car. this design aesthetic alone made me decide NOT to buy this car and simply ruins the otherwise beautiful interior design. what a shame. 2016 audi s4 it is>>>>

[@user-ur9yy6rl2z]

+MUH FACKS I completely agree with you. Why are all the screen in new cars placed on top of the dash? It looks so out of place and forced. I prefer it much more before when the screens were nicely tucked in behind the dash, where they were glare free. They also didn't look forced and out of place.

[@epfns]

those mid 2010s audis are undefeated, they're all the same now with the tablet looking screen stuck up on the dash which can't be moved

[@UhhhhhnooOOo00oO]

Cooley..uncool shortened video. That floating Nav screen looks like they took a low end Android $49 tablet and stuck it in a Mercedes. I dont know how for years...this is condoned by Mercedes and cinsumers. Garbage

[@vladsmarhun9232]

First!

[@craig2web]

I'd rather have the BMW 2 series.

[@Bloq.]

The backs really ruin almost all the Mercedes line-up.

[@valornfear6023]

FIRST!!!!!!!!!!

[@benjigruber9292]

I would rather save $10k and get an A4

[@rohanpatel1603]

Horrible quality video

[@thewiseowl3672]

Well, I suppose if you enjoy driving the brand Hitler favored. Aren’t these expensive to maintain?
