    C Class

    Artistic CLC condense fuel cost

    The compact body dimensions and the muscular lines emphasize the sporty appearance of the new CLC. The Mercedes designers have completely redesigned the front and rear so that the Sports Coupe embodies the contemporary Mercedes design idiom with its distinctive coupe radiator grille featuring a large Mercedes star in the centre, and the new projection-beam headlamps. The S-Class, the luxury CL-Class Coupe and the C-Class provided the artistic models. The redesigned large tailgate conceals a variable boot with up to 1100 liters of luggage capacity. The new tail lights, the long row of LEDs which make up the third brake light unit and the rear bumper subdivide the rear and emphasize its width. The standard specification for the sports package includes a new direct-steer system, which further enhances the agile driving experience of the CLC while adding an important boost to safety. This new feature is based on the speed-sensitive power steering and also offers a variable rack ratio which changes as a function of the steering angle so that the driver only has to turn the wheel slightly when cornering; the Sports Coupe therefore responds far more spontaneously to steering commands and offers even sportier handling.

    As a result, the direct-steer system also improves handling safety in critical situations – for instance when taking sudden evasive action – as the field tests conducted by the Mercedes engineers demonstrate. The six-speed manual transmission comes as standard with all engine variants. Mercedes-Benz can also supply a five-speed automatic transmission for the four?cylinder units, and the 7G-TRONIC seven-speed automatic transmission for the V6 models. In combination with the sports package, the driver can use gearshift paddles on the steering wheel to select the gears of the automatic transmission manually and make optimum use of the engines’ high power reserves when the driving situation calls for it. Mercedes-Benz offers four four-cylinder and two six-cylinder engines with power outputs ranging from 90 kW/122 hp to 200 kW/272 hp for the new CLC. The 135 kW/184 hp power plant in the CLC 200 KOMPRESSOR now develops an extra 15 kW/20 hp while consuming just 7.8 to 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers in the NEDC cycle – the equivalent of up to 0.7 liters less than before. In consumption terms, with its advanced turbo diesel engines, the CLC falls into the five-liter category: the CLC 200 CDI returns a consumption of 5.8 to 6.1 liters per 100 kilometers in the NEDC cycle, up to 10.8 percent less than the outgoing model. The CDI models boast operating ranges of over 1000 kilometers with a full tank (62 liters). High-quality equipment and appointments, and enhanced technology, the new Mercedes-Benz CLC offers even more conquest potential than its predecessor, Thanks to all designers.

    The public will get the chance to take a close look at the Sports Coupe for the first time at the European Mercedes sales and service outlets and authorized dealerships in June 2008.

     

    Comfort Comes with Luxury In Benz.

    A brand new model of Mercedes-Benz is released in 2008 as CLC entry-level coupe. Mercedes-Benz has announced details of its CLC entry-level coupe.. Developed from the former C-Class sports coupe – over 1,100 components are said to have been changed or updated – it is compact yet powerful, higher-tech yet more economical than its predecessor. The German automaker says the updated engines (especially the four-cylinder 1.8-liter that pushes the C200 Compressor and now delivers 184 bhp) and a direct-steer system will provide a much sportier behavior. Sales have started from May 2008. The CLC will be produced in Brazil, in the Juiz de Fora plant which Mercedes-Benz built to produce the A-Class. At the end of its production, this facility almost closed its doors before the company managed to find out what to do with it. The solution was the production of the C-Class Sport Coupe, what in part explains why the company has decided to keep the previous platform structure for the CLC. The Mercedes Benz CLC-Class model range lies within the price bracket of £19,920 – £27,240. The CLC range includes two diesel-engines models. Both are 2148 cc, but differ in power and torque outputs.

    The CLC 200 CDI engine delivers 122 bhp and 270 Nm, and the CLC 220 CDI, 150 bhp and 340 Nm. The car with the more powerful engine is naturally the quicker of the two, but both consume the same amount of juice: a theoretical 42.8 mpg on the combined cycle. This is for 5-speed automatic models; the stick-box cars are both around 48 mpg. But two pedals or three, the CLC CDI clearly represents the greener side of sports car motoring.

    The CLC 220 CDI delivers a really pleasant drive. With wide-ranging adjustment for the driver’s seat and steering wheel, it is possible to achieve the precise point of ergonomic balance, in which the driver feels in perfect pitch with the car. This synergy adds to the sense of its being a sports car, as does the new direct steering, which is worth an explanation. In terms of length, the CLC is shorter than a Mondeo but longer than a Focus, which, in turn, is longer that a Golf. It is very hard to position this car in the market place, and, given that it is slightly more a sports car than a coupe, I suppose the nearest equivalent is perhaps the Mazda RX-8. CLC Sport additives include an aluminium gear-shift, with a leather-trimmed gaiter, and stainless-steel inserts for the pedals. Standard features naturally include such things as ESP, ASR (Acceleration Skid Control), Artico man-made leather, dual-zone climate control, and park control. But the Merc touch is also evident in the smaller details, such as a first-aid kit, and monogrammed kick plates. Currently the CLC-Class has not been tested and therefore it is going to be rated by NCAP. Base models are above average to insure, whilst the higher specification cars are expensive (group 20 being the highest rating) to insure.

    The interior of the new Mercedes-Benz CLC is akin to a contemporary tailor-made suit – custom-fit and comfortable.

    I first thought it was ugly but the more I look at it, the more I like it than another old Mercedes Benz. The rear end looks significantly better than the old model. Furthermore, the design is also more appealing than the ugly B-class and R-class. We’re not sure U S consumers would take the bait a second time anyway. But there reportedly were other designs being considered. A host of new and/or revised features will be included with the car, which retains the same basic platform of the original Sports Coupe.

    One typical feature of the contemporary Mercedes design idiom is the arrow shape of the front end – a styling touch with a symbolic character that emphasizes typical attributes such as forward motion and agility.

    After an exceptionally hectic weekend – one that involved a quick flight to the frigid Midwest, followed by a round of inclement weather, and followed by our return flight then being cancelled – we have finally arrived back in the office, ready to bring you your daily dose of Mercedes-flavored goodness.

    A choice of seat covers in black, alpaca grey and a particularly stylish combination of black and red are available to give the interior its individual colour scheme.

    No word on which variants if any will be making it to the U S market, but it’s a safe bet that the smaller petrol and diesel models won’t be among the first shipments if they come at all.

    The entertainment, communications and nave systems can all be operated by voice command, too.

    The four-link independent front suspension and multilink independent rear suspension get new tuning to give better feel, but remember, it’s still the old C-class under the skin, so don’t expect any miracles.

    Newest coupe of C-Class Mercedes Benz

    Mercedes has finally showed pictures with the newest coupe from its models, the one based on C-Class, named CLC. After the teaser presented few weeks ago, Mercedes offered pictures with its completely new coupe, the most accessible from the series.
    Named CLC, according to the new politics of choosing names on Mercedes, that say that every coupe must start with “CL”, the model wants to be a dynamic version for C-Class.

    The front designs don’t offer many changes, because we already know the “C”, but the back is completely new. Big lights, moved on wings, too are a perfect match for the coupe; but it is a shame that Mercedes didn’t offered a special design, because everything looks to traditional. Maybe this is the only bad thing about this model. Another good looking element for CLC is the third brake light, formed by LED’s and integrated in the rear boot. The smallest engine available on CLC is a gas one that develops 122 hp and the much powerful one is a V6 of 272 hp.
    There are also available CDI engines. CLC200 consumes something between 5.8 and 6.1 l/100 km that mean that you can make over 1,000 km with one full gas tank, because the tank has a 62 liters capacity.

    The model shown s equipped with Mercedes-Benz’s sport package, which adds 18 inch wheels, headlights with black painted inner frames, a sports suspension with lowered bodywork and chrome trim. The basic CLC180 Compressor and CLC200 Compressor are powered by four-cylinder engines, delivering 143 horsepower and 184 horsepower, respectively. The more powerful CLC230 delivers 204 horsepower from a 2.4-liter V6, and the range-topping CLC350 offers 272 horsepower from a larger 3.5-liter V6. The 350 model will sprint to 62 mph in 6.3 seconds. Diesel variants include the CLC200 CDI and CLC220 CDI, which deliver 122 horsepower and 150 horsepower, respectively. Basic transmission choices include a five-speed automatic or six-speed manual. The V6 models are available with a seven-speed automatic, featuring paddle shifting.

    The side view of the Mercedes CLC is unmistakable with its muscular lines. The dominant upper edge of the wings underscores the wedge shape of the downward-slanting shoulder line, which combines at the rear with the upper edge of the tail lights. Taken in conjunction with the gently sloping bonnet, the sweeping silhouette of the roof and the obliquely angled rear windscreen give rise to the wedge-shaped side view which harmonizes perfectly with the car’s racy temperament. The all-round chrome trim strips, which are an additional eye-catcher, particularly when combined with dark exterior paint finishes, provide the finishing touches to the coherent lines.

    In 1996, Mercedes-Benz was the first car maker to offer this kind of voice-operated control system in a car. This first-generation LINGUATRONIC required a computer with a mere 512 kilobytes of storage capacity; today that figure is well over ten megabytes that are on CLC.
