The electrified performance sedan allegedly records 'close to zero' sales in some cases, not being able to keep up against the less powerful but cheaper BMW M3 rival
More Power Is Not Always The Answermakes a combined 671 hp from a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and a rear-mounted electric motor, making it the most powerful C-Class ever made. This number represents a healthy boost compared to its predecessor’s twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that produced 500 hp .
Nevertheless, figures are not the sole consideration, as the V8 undeniably emitted a significantly more appealing sound, while the electric assistance in the PHEV variant tapers off past the 200 km/h threshold. Adding to this, the PHEV is also a lot heavier, tipping the scales at 2,129 kg compared to 1,690 kg of its ICE-only predecessor.
