MERCEDES-BENZ C-Class Station Wagon

Exterior refined with the latest design language

Looking at the exterior of the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class Station Wagon, two major changes can be seen. One is that it is equipped with three-star-shaped LED daytime running lights, just like the recently released CLA.

The other change is the front grille. The current model’s grille has no prominent frame and is embedded in the bumper. The new model will have a chrome outline to emphasize the three-pointed star, giving it a more luxurious feel similar to the E-Class.

The rear of the car remains unchanged on this prototype, but some modifications are likely to be made in the future, likely including the placement of three LED stars inside the taillights.

Coming this year and next year

According to the photographer, there were no major changes to the interior specifications, such as the display. However, since the current C-Class is scheduled to be sold for a long time to come, it is likely that the latest screens will be installed at some point. We will be keeping a close eye on future developments in the infotainment area.

The current C-Class was released in 2021. A mid-life update will likely be implemented for the sedan first, between spring and summer 2025. The station wagon is expected to be released in 2026.
