The W206 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is Available in Fully Imported C200 Avantgarde and C300 AMG-Line Forms for the Moment - The C-Class Gets Larger...and larger.

This news is a little late due to the fact that I actually had some things to do and that my kid is finally sitting for her SPM papers. Being a somewhat dedicated father, as well as other commitments, this has taken priority. And the fact that I am essentially semi-retired these days.... Anyway, yes, Mercedes-Benz has launched the all new W206 generation of C-Class sedans in fully imported form for the moment with the locally assembled variants coming in later. We now get the C200 AV or Avantgarde and the C300 AMG-Line for now at around RM288K and RM330K respectively. Still quite decent prices for what is offered, although the C200 is now back to a 1.5liter turbocharged engine (with some electric motor boost) and the C300 comes with the 2.0liter turbocharged engine.

Mercedes-Benz C 200 AMG Line Launched for the Malaysian Market - Offered with the 2.0liter Turbocharged Engine Again

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has introduced the new C 200 AMG Line and compared to the current C 200 Avantgarde which was essentially the entry level C-Class here, this is what most of us would want. And it is priced slightly cheaper too - RM251,587.39 over RM259,000 when the C 200 AV was launched in February of 2019. Most likely due to the lack of sales tax due to the tax holiday but I'll take it as a drop nonetheless.

Test Drive: The Facelifted W205 Mercedes-Benz C 200 Avantgarde is Definitely Improved, Not Sporty, But Refinement Comes in Buckets

Today is the day where I finally write about the facelifted W205 Mercedes-Benz C 200 Avantgarde variant which I managed to try out last November during the media drive in conjunction with its Malaysian launch. This is the current entry level model in the Malaysian C-Class range, which goes up to the C300 AMG-Line, the AMG C43 and the AMG C63 S. No C180 variant in the current line-up for now but usually the C180 has been sold here in small numbers annually on a batch by batch basis.

Below is our first impressions vlog on the Facelifted W205 Mercedes-Benz C-Class - C200 Avantgarde & C300 AMG-Line. It isn't a review per se as we had covered the launch earlier here with this article. This was something I've decided to put together with some of the footage that I had shot during the media drive in November of last year. Kind of unique actually as this was mainly for my personal record of the drive. So it's just bits and pieces here for your viewing pleasure.

The New, Facelifted, Very Much Improved Mercedes-Benz C-Class Has Been Launched - C200 Avantgarde, C300 AMG-Line & C43 AMG Locally Assembled Variants Now On Sale

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia had introduced the new facelifted Mercedes-Benz C-Class on the 1st of November 2018. It essentially updates the already very competent, and polished premium sedan with a little bit more and adds some design tweaks, state-of-the-art safety and assistance systems, superior technology and also adds tweaks for better driving dynamics than the pre-facelifted one. At the launch, Malaysia will have three variants which are all locally assembled - the C200 Avantgarde Line (seen below), C300 AMG-Line and the Mercedes-AMG C43.
