New C-class TPMS in factory wheels ?

Can someone confirm that the 2018 C class don't have TMPS in the factory wheels ?
I searched but it was confusing because of US / CAN differences

Which model year does MB stop putting TPMS in factory wheels for the Cdn market ? or did they ?

OK, my sales consultant confirmed that there are NO TPMS in my factory wheels. The car uses ABS sensors to measure difference in rolling circumference of each tire to determine low-pressure.

the easiest way to tell is if the tire valve stem is rubber, then no tpms. If it is metal, then it has tpms.

Depends which model C Class.
C300s are Indirect no TPMS needed
C43/C63 are Direct thus each wheel has a sensor.
