Mercedes C-Class

Mercedes C300 BlueTEC Hybrid front action

Our pick: C300 BlueTEC Hybrid SEPrice: £34,630

The Mercedes C-Class makes headlines with S-Class-inspired comfort and excellent efficiency. The 94g/km C300 BlueTEC uses diesel-electric drive to deliver low emissions and a 0-62mph time of 6.4 seconds.

The new C-Class is a real step up over the old car, boasting the kind of relaxing drive and high-quality cabin that we’ve become accustomed to from cars boasting a far higher price tag.

The Mercedes C300 BlueTEC Hybrid model may not be the smoothest or the sharpest of the bunch but the margins are fine and company car buyers will certainly see the appeal.

If you buying for personal use, though, we’d say go for the C250 BlueTEC - but if emissions are really a priority then there’s always the 99g/km C200 BlueTEC.
