Mercedes-Benz C 250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY Prime Edition
Still, the competition (Audi, BMW) better keep up lest they leave Mercedes alone to become the go-to brand for consumption-conscious premium brand customers."
Case in point is the new C220 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY engine now available on the C-Class (with 170 hp/125kW and 400 Nm of torque). That 2.1 liter (2143cc) diesel achieves a fuel economy rating of 4.8 liters/100 km (58.85 UK mpg) - quite a leap from the 6.1 liters/100 km (46.31 UK mpg) of its previous, non-BlueEFFICIENCY iteration. It even fares better than the 5.1 liters/100 km (55.38 UK mpg) of the C200 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY (136 hp /100 kW), an engine launched just a year ago.
Also newly available in the C-Class is the C250 CGI BlueEFFICIENCY, a direct injection petrol/gasoline engine. The C250 CGI comes with 204 hp/150kW and 310 Nm of torque while achieving an impressive 7.2 liters/100 km (39.23 UK mpg) fuel rating.
All figures cited above are for the new engines available on C-Class sedan models, fuel consumption is slightly (by very little) higher on the estate/wagon. Still, the competition (Audi, BMW) better keep up lest they leave Mercedes alone to become the go-to brand for consumption-conscious premium brand customers
