About the C 400 4MATIC W205 Pre Facelift

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz C 400 4MATIC W205 Pre Facelift is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged car of 1,746 kg with 329 bhp, which works out at 188 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.07 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 1,191st quickest to 60 mph, and the 111th quickest of the 254 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 106.0 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.
