"The engine is appropriately muted at idle and at highway speeds, but its soundtrack at full throttle is less pleasing than you'd expect." - Car and Driver

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz C-Class gets a 2.0L turbo-4 engine that's good for 255 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. The 9-speed automatic transmission should take care of sending the power to the rear or all four wheels and is without a doubt one of the smoothest transmissions in the business, giving the C-Class the characteristic wafty and seamless thrust that most new Mercedes vehicles are known for. 

The suspension is set primarily towards comfort and is the biggest key difference between the C-class and the BMW 3-series. It rides beautifully and soaks up some of the nastiest bumps without breaking a sweat. It shuts off the outside world completely and the cabin is mostly quiet with the exception of a little wind and tire noise at speeds. 

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sprints from 0-60 mph in just 5.7 seconds and at full wack, it can do 155 mph. As the torque comes in as low as 1800 RPM, you will not have an issue in overtakes and the car will move without any lag. The C300 offers a host of driving modes that alter the engine response, transmission shift ferocity, and fiddles with the chassis too. In the sports+ mode, the C-class reveals its hidden personality and is truly engaging to drive. The 4MATIC further enhances the experience with the added benefit of AWD and added cornering control.

Speaking of the rivals, when it comes to sheer power, the 2021 Audi A4, with its 261 hp 45 TFSI 2.0L Turbo-4 engine rules the charts. The A4 also gets a standard Quattro AWD drivetrain, making it the fastest with a 0-60 mph time of 5.2 seconds. The BMW 3 Series' power output is at par with the Merc, however, the Bimmer gets better torque, helping it shave off a few seconds, from its 0-60 mph time. Meanwhile, the Lexus IS 300's 241 hp 2.0L Turbo-4 engine comes out as the slowest and least powerful.

"Generally speaking, these are relatively conservative sedan, but with more flair and cohesion than you’ll find in most rivals." - TheCarConnection

The 2021 Mercedes Benz C-Class's design is subtle yet intriguing. The front end is characterized by bold creases in the front bumper and all-LED headlamps. Tapering lines flow from the front to the end, giving the sedan a muscular side profile. Things only get interesting at the rear end with a splitter-like design and LED taillamps. The all-new 2021 C-Class Night Edition adds a sinister black trim to the bundle. 

The optional tinted power glass sunroof looks stylish on the outside and should bring in a lot of air and sunlight on the inside. All C-Class models ride on 18-inch AMG alloy wheels which go well with the car. Furthermore, the available AMG line packages adds a lot more sportiness to the C-Class with a redesigned grille and AMG-line alloy wheels. 

The 2021 C-Class is available in a total of 10 exterior color options. While 2 are offered as standard, other color choices cost a premium of $720 over the trim's MSRP. The 2021 Mercedes-Benz C-Class's dimensions are well proportioned and lend this sedan an easy-going look. Amongst the rivals, the Audi A4 weighs the most and is the longest sedan but it is the Bimmer that has the longest wheelbase translating to a bigger cabin on the inside.

2021 Mercedes Benz C-Class Sedan vs. 2021 Lexus IS 300

The Lexus IS 300 is a Japanese luxury sedan that is the least expensive and the most reliable on the list thanks to the engineering know-how from Toyota. The Lexus is underpowered and slow as compared to the Mercedes Benz C-Class sedan. Though being a sporty luxury sedan, the handling feels crispier in the IS 300, but it loses out on the premium appeal of the package.
