Yep, they came out a few weeks ago. The new C Class interior will look very similar to the new S Class with a giant Tesla like center screen and all touch. Not a fan at all.

Got my hands on the 2021 C43 order guide and it doesn't match the spy shots. The order guide has the 10.25 inch media display. The order guide is more accurate right? Could the pictures be the 2022 model?

Looks like the redesign has been delayed till the 2022 model. The spy shots are the 2022 model for the US.

The 2021 continues to be the same W205 as the 2020, which will make it the third model year of the facelift. That was expected. The W205 was facelifted as 2019, and typically a facelift runs for at least another 3 model years for an overall lifecycle of 6-7 years. The earliest we'll see the W206 is for 2022. The spy shots are of the W206.

U.S 2021 model equals EU 2020 model. I don't know why, but USA models are always 1 year ahead. Some marketing move...

To be fair, not just the USA, the rest of North America as well. They usually sell it first in Europe since that is where the brand is from and then ramp up production and make things available around the globe.
Speaking of 2022 C-Class, I want to share a video of a quick walkthrough that I found on YouTube today:
