2019 C Class Facelift

Is starting delivery from july 2018. Steering wheel will be as E-class, widescreen option confirmed, multibeam (not US per today). There will be new battery packages for the plug in hybrid and diesel will also be available as plug in, in addition to the excisting 350e. This is all I know, there have been words about carplay, but not confirmed.

Interesting. Won't be for me though, mine goes end of lease early next year and they can keep it.

well at least you can rest the palm of your hand on the center console now.

hopefully it comes with mobile tethering option. we are in 2017 and mercedes benz still does not allow us to use our own cell data. instead they give us an archaic 3g connection. in 2017...........by mercedes. the best or nothing. get tha F outta here.

It woulda been great if they they made just a wheel and short cut buttons next to it, and that the cruise control where controlled on the steering wheel.

Yes, very bad english

I don't think it's getting a widescreen. If it is, I haven't found anything to support it. Does somebody have an order guide?

My dealer has just ordered three cars, Daimler has confirmed widescreen, just not public. As I know my salesman at the dealership he doesn't throw around assumptions.

I'm skeptical. The new E and the S both have a dash built specifically for the dual widescreen with one continuous space spanning the driver's half of the dash. In the E, it can also accommodate an analog gauge set in the same space. But in the 205, where the analog gauges have their own separate binnacle it would require a completely different upper dash configuration (or possibly two).

Short version, salesman are among the least informed people on the planet when it comes to the cars they sell, much less what some future feature might become available. If you can't find it in an order guide, it probably ain't happening.

+1. Salesmen rarely know much about upcoming models prior to official announcements. I wouldn't trust any "confirmed" info very far.

.. so the actual size of the screen will be larger but the whole unit stays the same..in other words the bezel black frame gets much smaller so more screen area

I think he's referring to the all-glass dash currently in the 222 and optional in the new E, with a digital gauge set plus widescreen COMAND. At least that's what I think he's referring to.

Here are some spy shots of the 2019 W205 interior. New steering wheel controls with touch pads like the E, and redesigned main touchpad. Same analog gauge cluster with some cosmetic tweaks. In line with the typical facelift stuff.
