Mercedes C Class wheel fitment — C204/205 Phev
Overview
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W206) is a compact executive car introduced in 2021 as the fifth generation of the model line. It was unveiled on February 23, 2021, and production commenced shortly after at various global plants including Bremen, East London, Iracemápolis, and Tuscaloosa. The W206 features a lighter structure with extensive use of aluminum and high-strength steel, resulting in significant weight reduction compared to its predecessor. All models are equipped with four-cylinder engines paired with an integrated starter generator and a 48-volt electrical system for improved efficiency. Notably, the C-Class All-Terrain (X206) was released as an off-road focused variant.
