Default 2022 Mercedes C Class W206

Surprised nobody here has mentioned the new C class yet. There are multiple vids on YouTube where it looks like MB invited some youtubers to check out the car. Im surprised how uncamo-ed the interior and exterior are. From what I can see, I like the exterior, and the interior looks baby S class. They upped the ambient lighting even more! World premier next week on the 24th.

regarding first video, I didn't know Arnold Schwarzenegger did car reviews!

those screens look cheap and tacky to me... otherwise looks nice

good timing on this post, i just recently made some good use of the outgoing c-class and some icy pavement lol


overall not a very impressive car but it does do this very well, although it's 4matic it's a rwd platform so it loves to kick the tail out in the snow

There's no real excitement for a all 4 cyl C class including AMG with a interior full of a big screens that look like they have been tacked on to try to copy Tesla. This trend is really a shame especially for Mercedes.

Unfortunately BMW is heading the same way.
They will have the idiotic rectangle tablets for Gauges and NAV display on all new cars. The 3series will get this as well at mid-cycle refresh.

Zero originality with all these automakers- just copy Tesla and try to be “cool”

To be fair, the current BMW 3-Series showed some "originality" with its digital dash configuration ... and most reviews hate it.

Digital dash on BMW is horrendous as you can’t customize the layout and it doesn’t offer a different display when you put it in Sport or Sport+ modes.

Even a Mustang gives you these options.

Its one of the benefits of digital that you can have various layouts for the gauges.

I think the new screens is the wrong direction. The speedometer screen is way too small

Im not sure I like the screens either, in this or the S class, but I dont agree that they are too small. They look like the same 12.3 inch screens in the current generation E class (and previous S class), but they just look small next to the new, larger center stack screen.
