A driving environment which allows you to concentrate on the task in hand is not just a luxury, it is also a major safety feature. It all starts with the well-designed driver's area: the new dashboard provides you with all the necessary information at a glance. The instrument cluster with three round displays is situated in the driver's immediate field of vision and provides information about key operating parameters. The optional COMAND system also includes an electric retractable screen.

Depending on the equipment version, you can use the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel to control various comfort features while keeping both hands on the steering wheel. And with the optional KEYLESS-GO function, you can drive off without even having to turn an ignition key.

A comfortable travelling environment comes courtesy of the THERMATIC two-zone automatic climate control which is fitted as standard in the new C-Class. As an option, you can specify the THERMOTRONIC 3-zone luxury automatic climate control which allows the temperature in the rear section of the passenger cabin to be set independently as well.
