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.

New in C-Class of Mercedes Family
The Mercedes-Benz CLC-Class (codename CL203) is a luxury compact car which has been produced by the Mercedes Car Group division of Daimler AG since 2002, as part of the C-Class, and since 2008 as its own lineup. The first generation was based on the W203 C-Class and sold as the C-Class Sport coupe or Sport Coupe. At the launch of the Sport coupe, a new family of supercharged four cylinder engines, dubbed M271, also debuted for the entire range C-Class range.
The official announcement came in and a new Mercedes Benz CLC (Sport Coupe) is ready to be released. It has the same C-class radiator grille we’re used with and the big Mercedes logo on it, new projection-beam headlamps, a new rear bumper and third brake LED light. It’s obvious that the first thing you look at is the exterior and the new Mercedes Benz CLC has a lot to get your attention, but what about under the hood?

The 193 PS (142 kW/190 hp) C 230K was initially available only in the Sport coupe. When you choose a sports car you need to think how you will drive it, and the sort of power you want. The new CLC will be unveiled to the public for the first time at the fashion event. These completely new designs were developed at CLC in response to a growing constituency of skilled paddlers seeking waterborne sports cars for racing, exercise, or just plain fun.
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.
