Overview
- Mercedes, which unveiled the C 400 4MATIC electric on Monday in Seoul, introduced its first battery‑only C‑Class on a new 800‑volt platform.
- The launch model uses a 94.5 kWh usable battery, delivers about 360 kW, does 0–100 km/h in roughly 4.1 seconds, and targets up to about 760–762 km WLTP range.
- Fast charging peaks at up to about 330 kW on 800‑volt stations, while DC charging on common 400‑volt hardware requires an optional converter and AC charging is 11 kW standard or 22 kW optional.
- Inside, the car runs Mercedes’ new MB.OS with large Hyperscreen or Superscreen layouts, a virtual assistant that blends multiple AI models, and an interior option certified vegan by The Vegan Society.
- Orders open in May with deliveries after the summer, outlets report a starting price target below €70,000, and Mercedes will refresh the gasoline C‑Class as it plans a longer‑range rear‑drive variant for 2027 and future AMG versions.
