Mercedes-Benz finally revealed its 2015 C-Class compact vehicle at the North American International Auto Show this weekend, where the automaker confirmed it would be released sometime this fall.
The vehicle comes with multiple engine options, including a 2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and turbocharged 3-liter V6 mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission, according to the Associated Press.
Mercedes-Benz will offer an all-wheel-drive option at first, but a rear-wheel-drive will follow.
"It's not uncommon for lower-priced models to slowly move upmarket and get replaced by all-new, entry-level models," said Karl Brauer, an analyst at auto information company Kelley Blue Book, according to The Los Angeles Times. "The C-Class was never the sportiest car in that segment, so making the next version larger and more luxurious isn't a major shift for the model's image or role."
The new vehicle is four inches longer and 1.6 inches wider, according to the automaker to make more comfortable for passengers.
The truck also has a towing capacity of 17 cubic feet, an increase from 12.4 feet.
The C-Class is 220 pounds lighter than its predecessor as well.
Mercedes recently announced it would be adding 1,000 brand new jobs in Alabama to make the fourth-generation C-Class. The plant previously only produced crossovers and utility vehicles, according to the automaker.
Fuel economy ratings have not been released by the Environmental Protection Agency yet.
The current C-Class is sold for $35,800, but it usually sells for $37,100. The price for the 2015 model will likely be a little more expensive than its predecessor.
