This runabout is already available in the petrol mill option in the country, which is powered by a 2.0 litre turbocharged inline four cylinder engine and produces an appreciable power of 184 PS at 5500 rpm as well as a transcendent torque of 300Nm between 1200 to 1400 rpm. The existing car is currently selling out via CBU around INR 40.90 Lacs.

On the other hand, the upcoming diesel version is expected to get more luxurious cosmetic components and additional features as compared to its outgoing variant to obtain tremendous profit over the investments. The Mercedes C220 CDI will be machined with a 2.2 litre diesel engine to churn out an impressive power of 170 bhp alongside a rattling torque of 400 Nm.
