Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC personifies the Mercedes-AMG brand’s hallmark emotive appeal and enticing performance for enthusiasts and technology aficionados, who are in pursuit of excellent driving performance, for all day use. The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC complements the C-Class range by another sports build of Mercedes-AMG origin. The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC was launched by Michael Jopp, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Mercedes-Benz India.

Michael Jopp, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Mercedes-Benz India said,

The introduction of the AMG C43 follows our successful product strategy, which emphasizes on gradually building up the ‘AMG 43’ portfolio in India. With this sportscar, Mercedes-Benz India now extends the AMG brand promise of ‘Driving Performance’ and the typical AMG character traits, to an even broader target group.

With the launch of this performance saloon, Mercedes-Benz India continues to offer the widest range of performance and specialty cars in the luxury car segment.

Mr. Jopp further added,

The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC is fascination of motor racing in everyday life. Its exterior beauty is further amplified by the immersive and sporty interiors. In 2016, we have already introduced a diverse range of never seen before cars for the Indian market, which has been fascinating and delighting our customers. The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC is the 6th car launched in India this year without a predecessor. This further underscores our strategy of continuously innovating and indulging our patrons with world-class products and services.

AMG Performance 4MATIC

The performance-oriented all-wheel drive developed by Mercedes-AMG combines optimum traction, hallmark AMG driving dynamics and maximum driving pleasure.

The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC finalizes its sporty look at the rear end with the signature AMG twin-tailpipe design, giving a first taste of what to expect as soon as the engine starts. The model plates decorating the boot lid on its left and right manifest the Saloon’s racing origin.

Sporty Interior

The interior greets the driver with an authentic sports car atmosphere, created by the synergy of the multifunction sports steering wheel, sports seats in ARTICO man- made leather with enhanced lateral support and an AMG instrument cluster. The 43- series typical red topstitching stresses the exclusivity of the AMG brand. 3-spoke multifunction sports steering wheel in black nappa leather with red topstitching, flattened bottom section, heavily embossed in grip area, with DIRECT SELECT steering wheel shift paddles and steering wheel bezel in silver chrome. Red topstitching on the upper part of the dashboard, beltline, door centre panels and armrests in ARTICO man-made leather is a typical feature of the 43-series models.
