Mercedes-Benz Msia previews C350e Plug-In Hybrid priced at RM299k!


A full eight weeks ahead of schedule, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) has just unveiled the latest model in its 2016 line-up, the locally-assembled C350e Plug-In Hybrid! Set to be launched by the end of September and deliveries beginning a couple of weeks later, let’s take a closer look…


The numbers are mighty impressive to say the least; how does a combined horsepower and torque output of 279bhp and 600Nm sound? Add to that a pure-electric speed of 130kmh and a range of 31km on just electric power. There’s more too, the C350e does the 0-100kmh century sprint in just 5.9sec!



Pre-conditioning that cools the interior before you get in can be set manually via the remote key fob, or preset via the instrument cluster anytime, for example if you’re parked in the open and you’re leaving for a meeting at 1pm, you can set the system to pre-condition the car starting at 12.30pm, so the car is cool and ready for you. Quite literally, how cool is that?


Airmatic suspension, a Burmester sound system and 360-degree camera are just some of the upmarket enhancements available as standard. Of course the best number of all is the on-the-road price of RM299k. Stay tuned for more details on AF closer to the launch!
