Which Mercedes-Benz C-Class is the base model, and what does it cost?

The C 200, from ₹61.20L ex-showroom Delhi, is where the C-Class range starts. Features you get even here: Level 1 ADAS, panoramic sunroof and ventilated seats. What you give up against the top C 300: no blind spot monitor, Bi-LED projector headlamps against Bi-LED + booster lamp and no premium sound system, and 2 more.

Which Mercedes-Benz C-Class is the top model, and what does it cost?

The C 300 tops the range at ₹67.00L ex-showroom Delhi. Over the base C 200 it adds blind spot monitor, headlamps (Bi-LED + booster lamp against Bi-LED projector) and Burmester premium sound system, and 2 more. It is not a straight superset of the range though: it goes without no frequency-selective dampers that the C 200 has.

What do the Mercedes-Benz C-Class trim names mean?

A trim is a level of equipment, and Mercedes-Benz uses 3 names for them on the C-Class: in its own order they run C 200, C 220d and C 300. Between them the 3 variants cost ₹61.20L to ₹67.00L, ex-showroom Delhi.

Is there a petrol Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and what does it cost?

Yes. The cheapest is the C 200 Petrol Mild Hybrid AT at ₹61.20L ex-showroom Delhi, and 2 of the 3 variants are petrol.

Is there a diesel Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and what does it cost?

Yes. The cheapest is the C 220d Diesel Mild Hybrid AT at ₹62.00L ex-showroom Delhi, and 1 of the 3 variants is diesel.

Which cars does the Mercedes-Benz C-Class compete with?

The C-Class runs ₹61.20L to ₹67.00L ex-showroom Delhi, and one other sedan sells in the same money: the BMW 3 Series LWB from ₹62.70L.

Is there a cheaper alternative to the Mercedes-Benz C-Class?

Not among the cars it goes up against. The C-Class is the cheapest of them at ₹61.20L ex-showroom Delhi, so a saving would have to come from a smaller car rather than a rival sedan.

Sorted by price.

High-tech Silver

₹65,62,740 to ₹82,72,008 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the C 200 Petrol Mild Hybrid AT comes to ₹65,62,740 in Ahmedabad and ₹75,42,140 in Kochi, a difference of ₹9,79,400 on the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price it in, Gujarat, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out highest. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.
