2017 Mercedes C350e Full Review – Video

 

The C 350 e’s powertrain mixes a four-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor and battery pack, all driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed automatic gearbox.

It’s a combination that results in the typically impressive on-paper figures we’re used to seeing for plug-in hybrids. Combined system outputs of 275bhp and 442lb ft help propel the C 350 e from 0-62mph in just 5.9sec and onto a 155mph top speed.
