Mercedes-Benz has introduced the 2027 C-Class Electric, a new battery-powered sedan. This model represents an advancement in Mercedes' electric vehicle offerings, particularly in terms of range and performance.
The initial powertrain for the C-Class Electric will be the dual-motor, all-wheel-drive C 400 4Matic. This configuration delivers 483 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque, allowing the vehicle to accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 130 mph. This performance surpasses that of the current AMG C43 model.
The C-Class Electric is equipped with a 94-kilowatt-hour battery pack, capable of charging from 10% to 80% in 22 minutes at a maximum rate of 330 kilowatts. The estimated range is 474 miles on the European WLTP cycle, which is expected to translate to approximately 425 miles under the stricter American EPA testing standards.
The new C-Class Electric enters a challenging market, characterized by a softening electric car segment and declining sedan sales in the United States. Despite these headwinds, Mercedes-Benz is positioning the C-Class Electric with competitive range and performance figures.
