2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C 300 Luxury

The 2010 C-Class is Mercedes' compact luxury sedan, the entry point to the brand for many buyers. It's a comfortable cruiser with a smooth ride, and the available sport-tuned models add a bit of agility without losing that Mercedes composure. Inside, you get a well-built cabin with supportive seats, though the back seat is snug for adults and the trunk lacks a hatchback opening. Expect premium fuel and maintenance costs that run higher than a typical compact sedan, but owners often say the comfort and dependability justify it. Burl walnut wood trim and the stand-up hood star set the C 300 Luxury apart from the standard C 300, giving it a more traditional Mercedes look. Its 3.0L V6 makes 228 horsepower and routes through a seven-speed automatic to all-wheel drive, which gives you sure-footed traction in rain or snow without feeling heavy. The Agility Control suspension lets you toggle between Comfort and Sport modes, so you can soften the ride for highway cruising or firm it up for back roads.
