The upcoming 2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class incorporates revised LED headlamps inspired by E-Class, reworked front bumper
Mercedes-Benz is working on a facelift version of the C-Class luxury sedan. A test mule of the car has been spied in Germany, which hints mild design tweaks to be available in the luxury sedan. With the design tweaks, it is expected to come more stylish and sharper compared to the outgoing model, while the basic silhouette of the car remains same. The latest iteration of C-Class could launch in India in 2018 and upon its launch, the car will take on Audi A4, BMW 3-Series and Jaguar XE.
The 2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class comes with revised LED headlamps, which take inspiration from the E-Class sedan. Apart from that, the front bumper is also likely to come revised, incorporating new air intakes. The spyshots show chrome embellishment on the side skirts, which enhances the luxury sedan’s style quotient further.
