Powering the C 300 is a 2.0-litre, inline 4-cylinder petrol motor which produces 258PS of power and 370Nm of peak torque. Mercedes-Benz is this engine in the C-Class sedan sometime next year. The petrol motor comes mated to a 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission which lets the car reach 100kmph in just 6.2 seconds. Compared to the C 300 d AMG Line (which puts out 13 less horses), the 100kmph sprint in the C 300 Cabriolet takes 0.3 seconds more, while the top speed for both is limited to 250kmph.

Inside the C 300 Cabriolet, you get a lot of premium features like a 10.25-inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, touchpad controls on the steering wheel to navigate the menus, a 64-colour ambient lighting and open-pore walnut wood trim for the dashboard. Being a convertible, it also gets Mercedes' AIRCAP system which reduces turbulence inside the cabin when the roof is folded.

Outside, you get three new colours to choose from - Mojave Silver, Selenite Grey and a 'special' Designo Selenite Grey Magno. Apart from this, you also get MULTIBEAM LED headlamps with pixel-specific beam range and coverage control (claimed to be the most innovative light and sight system in Mercedes-Benz' current lineup) and new 17-inch, 5-spoke, lightweight alloy wheels.

Mercedes claims that the cost of ownership of the new C-Class Cabriolet starts from Rs 67,000 for a period of 2 years, which sounds pretty impressive. The C 300 Cabriolet will rival the Audi A5 Cabriolet, which is priced at Rs 67.51 lakh (ex-showroom), in the Indian market.
