2008 Mercedes-benz C-class at the New York International Auto Show
DaimlerChrysler maker of Mercedes vehicles and quality Mercedes tail light guard will present its fourth generation Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan in an official North American debut at the upcoming New York International Auto Show which will open to the public starting April 6 to 15, 2007 at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in Manhattan. The next-generation 2008 C-Class sedan is slightly bigger than its successful predecessor and was made even more agile, comfortable and safe.
The appearance of the new mid-size C-Class reveals the latest Mercedes design idiom that is characterized by the edgy interplay of taut lines with wide and rounded surfaces. The revised suspension and steering of the new C-Class makes it more agile along with a new slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission for the C300 Sport model.
For the US market the new C-Class will be launched this fall with three V6-powered models namely the C350 Sport, the C300 Luxury, and the C300 Sport. Both the C300 Sport and Luxury models will be available with an all new 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system that is mated to a seven-speed transmission. Standard equipment includes a power sunroof, eight-way power front seats with lumbar support, two-zone automatic climate control, 17-inch wheels, Bluetooth connectivity and a central controller with a seven-inch display screen.
