Mercedes-Benz has introduced the highly anticipated C 200 Night Edition in New Zealand.
This limited special edition elevates the C 200 model with an array of premium features, enhancing both its aesthetic appeal and driving experience.
A distinctive look

Premium interior
The interior of the Night Edition is as impressive as its exterior. A premium Burmester 3D surround sound system ensures an immersive audio experience.
Combined with newly added heat and noise-insulating acoustic glass for the windscreen and front side windows, the spacious cabin offers a serene environment.
The luxurious standard appointments of the C 200 are complemented by ARTICO upholstery, dual-zone climate control and ambient lighting.
The dashboard features an anthracite line structure lime wood trim and an 11.9-inch portrait-style centre screen.
This is the core of the MBUX multimedia system, which allows touch or voice control over navigation, entertainment, climate control and telephony and vehicle systems.
The driver benefits from a 12.3-inch LCD colour display, a head-up display (HUD) and a multifunction steering wheel. Front seat passengers enjoy heated, electrically adjustable seats with memory function.

Additional conveniences include LED headlights with Headlamp Assist, automatic wipers, a tyre pressure loss warning system, a 360° camera, keyless entry and start and a power-closing boot lid.
Powerful and efficient drivetrain
Under the bonnet, the C 200 Night Edition is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine, producing 150kW and 300 Nm of torque.
