2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet spy photo / Automedia
Getting a soft top
A fully camouflaged Mercedes-Benz
C-Class Cabriolet prototype has been caught on camera by our spy
photographers.
The defunct CLK is about to get a spiritual successor in the
form of a C-Class Cabriolet equipped with a multi-layered soft top and according
to several reports it will be cheaper than the SLK (soon to be SLC).
The prototype spotted here is still dressed in a heavy amount of disguise but
it's not that hard how to imagine how the car will look like after looking at
the sedan.
Mercedes-Benz provided a sneak preview of the interior cabin
through a mockup
which was displayed last summer in Stuttgart at the firm's museum.
Unsurprisingly, the cabin was largely carried over from the sedan and wagon
C-Class but with different power tilt & slide seats and additional buttons
for the roof. The production car will most likely get the AIRSCARF (neck-level
heating) and AIRCAP (air deflector) systems as seen on other open-top
Mercedes models.
Chances are the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet will be
introduced in 2016, following the release of the C-Class
Coupe set for later this year. Both cars will most likely get C63 AMG versions
equipped with a twin-turbo V8 4.0-liter engine delivering 476 HP & 650 Nm
and 510 HP & 700 Nm in S specification.
