The class-leading and award-winning Mercedes-Benz C-Class has been enhanced with the addition of a limited edition model to its popular ranks.

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sports Package is now on sale and offers customers even greater value, and is available in both four-cylinder C-Class models: the supercharged 135kW C 200 KOMPRESSOR and torque-rich but fuel-efficient 400Nm C 220 CDI turbo-diesel.

The C-Class Sports Package is available in both saloon and wagon.

The exterior enhancements include the radiator grille in matt brilliant silver finish with chrome inlays and central integrated three-pointed star in louvres, matching the sporty face of the popular Avantgarde model line.

Further differentiation is provided by the chrome highlights to front and rear bumpers, lower side of the doors between the wheel arches, boot lid handle and fog light surrounds. Further distinguishing this limited edition Sports Package are tail lights that feature a dark grey tint.

The Sports Package also receives unique alloy wheels (front - 225/45 R 17 tyres  on  7.5J x 17 twin spoke alloy wheels  and Rear - 245/40 R 17 tyres on 8.5J x 17 rear wheels).

The interior features a combination of ARTICO/fabric upholstery on both the front and rear seats, and this limited edition also features a double cup holder and stowage compartment in the rear central armrest.

The interior of the C-Class Sports Package is signed off with the inclusion of ambient lighting and aluminium trim.

The limited edition C-Class Sports Package is available in three colours: Obsidian Black metallic, Iridium Silver metallic and Calcite White (non-metallic).

Priced from $59,990 (for the C 200 KOMPRESSOR Sports Package saloon) this limited-run C-Class model delivers a greater-than $5,000 saving over a comparably equipped C-Class saloon.
