Mercedes-Benz C350e - Powerful Plug-in Hybrid at RM335k | YS Khong Driving

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) has unveiled the C350e, a new plug-in hybrid variant assembled locally (CKD) in Pekan, Pahang. Priced at approximately RM355,000 on-the-road without insurance, this model combines efficiency and performance seamlessly.
Under its hood lies a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four petrol engine, delivering 204 PS (201 hp or 150 kW) at 6,100 rpm and 320 Nm of torque from 2,000 to 4,000 rpm. This powertrain is complemented by an electric motor integrated into the nine-speed 9G-Tronic automatic transmission, contributing 129 PS (127 hp or 95 kW) and 440 Nm of torque to the rear wheels.
The combined output of 313 PS (308 hp or 230 kW) and 550 Nm enables impressive performance figures, including a top speed of 245 km/h and a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 6.1 seconds. In electric mode, it can reach speeds of up to 140 km/h, with an all-electric range of up to 117 km according to the WLTP standard. The lithium-ion battery, boasting a capacity of 25.4 kWh, is covered by a six-year/100,000-km warranty in addition to the standard four-year manufacturer warranty.
Charging the C350e is convenient with support for AC charging at a maximum capacity of 11 kW, achieving a full charge in two hours when connected to a compatible charger.
The C350e comes generously equipped with features such as Digital Light LED headlamps with Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus, a panoramic sunroof, 18-inch AMG five-spoke alloy wheels, Thermatic dual-zone climate control with rear vents, a Nappa leather sports steering wheel, Artico man-made leather upholstery, and ambient lighting. Safety is prioritized with Pre-Safe, Active Blind Spot Assist, Active Brake Assist, and a comprehensive Parking package including a reverse camera and Active Parking Assist.
Infotainment is managed through the Mercedes-Benz User Experience, featuring an 11.9-inch central touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster display. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are supported.
Thanks for watching!

Do a review on the standard C300, I bet that's what most people are getting

[@loges8311]

No longer available

i previously drove the W205 c350e and it was a fun car to drive with 600nm. The only downside was the electric range. It was, on paper, a measly 30km (less in the real world). I could barely drive to the office on battery, had to charge it at work if I wanted to drive it home on battery. I'm glad they put a larger battery in here so you could decently use it like a pure EV for a day or two, and yet have the ICE for a more spirited drive. Can't wait for your driving impression of this car.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yup the battery is now larger, and it has a more practical EV range.

This model can‘t sell more.Let's see the sales data on next few months...

[@jereignjayavenhenryjohn6802]

Nice review the Mercedes C-Class is becoming more like a mid-size sedan😮

[@YSKhongDriving]

True that!

[@aimanfitri0iv]

it should powerful enough especially in daily use 👍😁

[@jonathanng138]

Btw try driving the W206 C300 up Genting for some reason nobody has done a video on the W206 C300 driving up Genting yet despite the car having been released for like 2 years already. Would love your perspective about it especially when compared to the W205 and current G20

[@YSKhongDriving]

Good idea, but would you have one lying around?

[@Shafy143]

C300 has been discontinued bro, no point making a vid

[@foxtrot762]

Did the kraut mobile break down?

[@zulwhite6007]

Uncle kena buat full range test untuk model ni. Full tank + battery fully charged

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, kalau bolih dapat kereta.

[@nicholasalkaff42]

Uncle Khong can do a arteon R full review+ genting drive

[@YSKhongDriving]

Already done more than a year ago

[@wensiangfong]

Kinda stupid for modern day to have the adjustable seat buttons there so annoying when u only adjust seat once or twice. Now modern car all got memory seat, why make it like you need to keep adjusting your seat non stop...😅

[@W2L5G]

A firm seat on a Mercedes is good, Because its Long Lasting. Haha.

[@lagrangewei]

after driving EV, i conclude the sunroof is shit for Malaysia, the sun come in your car become a greenhouse, you feel like a piece of bread in the oven... especially after parking our car outside for an hour, it doesn't feel good to get back in even if your EV has auto aircon precooling.

[@shazzihansolhi4911]

typo there, 355k**

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha. Actually no.

[@donaldleo3448]

about SGD100k

Plugin Hybrids especially from the Germans is not a smart idea to get in Malaysia

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hmmm, why ah?

[@foxtrot762]

​@@YSKhongDriving German cars are rubbish.

[@richardlai1895]

Hah! Obviously, not a fan here

[@jonathanng138]

@@YSKhongDriving Because generally Hybrids have problems down the line and compared to the normal combustion engine it wouldn't be easy to fix and would cost a fortune. Also Cycle and Carriage has been well known to reject customer's warranty claim cause their suck A holes. Let's not forget about resell value any normal combustion engine model would hold it's value way better than any Hybrid.

@@richardlai1895 Let's take the Porche Tycan for example, I know it's fully electric but it devalues by 50% within 3 years and there's reasons to avoid these cars
