The familiar trim levels will remain, with SE, Elegance and Sport on offer.
There are subtle changes to what's on offer at the higher levels, however.
The Elegance has a radiator grille with a high-gloss paint finish, while, for the first time on a Mercedes estate, the badge on the front of the estate is enlarged.
Prices haven't been released, but it's likely that the new C-Class Estate will cost around £2000 more than the saloon.
