Following the arrival of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class into our domestic market, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia now introduces the C 250 with AMG line, offering its customers a wider range of choice of its progressive design and equipment lines in addition to the Avantgarde and Exclusive line.
As the name suggests, the AMG line offers AMG body styling, 18-inch 5-spoke AMG alloy wheels and a sports suspension lowered by 15mm. Other AMG design includes the AMG front apron in A-wing design with front splitter and A-wing trim strip in matt iridium silver, AMG side sill panels and AMG rear apron with three diffusor fins. The sports suspension is combined with a more direct steering ratio to achieve maximum sportiness.
The new C 250 AMG also comes with the LED Intelligent Light System with Adaptive Highbeam Assist, which makes driving with permanent high-beam possible by masking detected road users in the cone of light for the first time. As a result, the best possible headlamp range is always available to the driver. The function is active from a speed of 30 km/h on roads with no road lighting.
In addition, the C 250 AMG will also feature Comand Online, a control and display system with DVD player, radio and 10 GB memory for compressed audio files (mp3, wma, aac, wav) and video files (mpeg, avi up to 720p.) With Comand Online, information is shown on a 8.4 inch high-resolution colour display with its easy and intuitive touchpad.
Audiophiles will also have their C 250 AMG delivered equipped with Burmester surround sound system that drives 13 high-performance speakers configured specifically for this vehicle with a total system output of 590 watts. It brings a concert hall atmosphere to the sedan.
With electric panoramic sliding sunroof, even more light shines into the interior for customers who love the sun. Its large total transparent area creates a near open-air feeling, complemented by a system of practical roller sun blinds. The panoramic sliding sunroof has numerous useful functions for a high level of travelling comfort. In the raised position, the glass roof automatically adjusts in three stages to suit the current vehicle speed. The glass roof is lowered at high speeds, reducing the noise level and air circulation in the interior. Conversely, it raises itself again at low speeds. The panoramic sliding sunroof also responds automatically to rain: If it is open, it automatically moves to the raised position to prevent rain from entering the interior.
Powertrain remains the same as the standard C250, the 2.0-litre direct-injection turbocharged engine is capable of producing 211hp and 350Nm of torque mated to Mercedes’ 7G-Tronic Plus seven-speed automatic gearbox. As a result, the C250 is capable of accelerating from 0-100km/h in 6.6 seconds with top speed limited to 250km/h.
The new C 250 AMG is now available for order at RM 339,888.00 on-the-road without insurance (an additional RM25k from the standard C 250) For more information about the C 250 AMG Line, visit their official website here.
