C350e Plug-in Hybrid orderable in US?
Hi,
Does anyone know if the C305e Plug in Hybrid is orderable in the US yet? I've received vague conflicting answers from some local dealers here. Some say yes they can "order" it but in reality they just want me to put a deposit down to be put on the list to actually order it when it becomes available. One dealer also told me that the cars won't be in the US until Feb. Just curious if anyone has heard anything regarding the c350e in the US.
thanks,
Jeff

According the MBUSA, it will be available in the fall of 2015:
Sleek, elegant and ready to drive. It's everything you'd expect from a C‑Class, plus the efficiency of our most advanced hybrid technology yet.
With a four-cylinder gasoline engine in conjunction with a powerful electric motor, the C350 Plug-In Hybrid boasts 275 horsepower while still allowing for emissions-free driving of up to 18.6 miles (estimated). And thanks to an intelligent on-board charging system, the battery can be quickly charged at a wallbox, through a standard domestic socket, or at one of the growing number of charging stations.
On top of all that, it's especially thrilling to drive. Offering five custom transmission modes - Individual, Sport, Sport+, Comfort and Economy - it puts you in control of the driving feel. And with four additional engine modes, you can also adjust the ratio of gas and electric energy, so the range of efficiency is completely up to you.
It's the all-new C350 Plug-In Hybrid, and it arrives in the fall of 2015.
Therefore, a US dealer should be able to order them and most likely already have.

Yes, I've seen the MBUSA press release, that's why I was surprised when a local dealer told me it was delayed until Feb. No other dealers in my area can tell me anything about pricing and they are not taking orders yet.
