We have detailed pictures of the latest Mercedes coupe and it looks stunning. The new Benz coupe will arrive with two engine options: The Mercedes-Benz C250 coupe gets the 1.8-liter direct-injected turbo four with 201 horsepower, while the C350 coupe is equipped with the 304-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6. Both are mated exclusively to Mercedes’ 7-speed automatic transmission, which drives the rear wheels. 4Matic all-wheel drive will not be offered on the C-Class coupe. So what else separates the 2012 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe from the sedan it’s based on? Two fewer doors and a slightly lower roofline. That’s about it. The C-Class coupe’s wheelbase is the same, the front end is the same, the luxury touches and the cutting-edge electronic wizzardry… it’s all the C-Class we know, only sexier and more muscular.
Will that be enough to steal sales away from the likes of the Audi A5 coupe and the VW Scirocco? Well the Benz brand in malaysia is still very powerful and still on the wish list of many ‘A’ list Malaysians.
