Mercedes-Benz C-Class Plug-in Hybrid Spied Testing
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class family will be growing with a plug-in hybrid variant.
Caught by AutoGuide.com‘s spy photographers, the C-Class plug-in hybrid was recently seen undergoing tests in Germany. Currently, Mercedes only offers hybrid variants of its E- and S-Class sedan models, but that will change in the near future with the new C-Class plug-in hybrid, which will directly compete with BMW‘s 3 Series hybrid model.
