Mercedes C-Class facelift spied

Mercedes-Benz is going all out in updating its car range and the relatively new C-Class is no exception.

The executive model is getting a minor refresh, as seen in these images of the prototype doing the rounds in Northern Sweden. The makeover will incorporate new rear lamps and revised bumpers both ends.

The facelift will also get new headlights and a new layout of the single lights in the lamp units. While we expect it to be powered by the existing engine options, Mercedes will update the interior for sure. The update cabin will include a new steering wheel with yet more controls as well as a new touchpad. 

We expect the facelifted C-Class to hit the showrooms in Europe later this year. It will compete with the Jaguar XE, Audi A4 and the BMW 3 Series.
