Review

The Mercedes C-Class Estate isn’t the most practical of estate cars, but it still offers useful extra versatility over the C-Class saloon, plus it’s a very comfortable choice. It’s also worth noting that the C300e and C300de plug-in hybrids qualify for low rates of BIK tax, thanks to their long electric ranges.

This is the entry-level trim for the C300e and our recommended version of that model. It gets plenty of kit, including heated front seats, a power-operated tailgate and a panoramic sunroof.

The C300e plug-in hybrid is the C-Class that makes most sense if you're a company car driver or can charge at home. It can officially travel for up to 68 miles on electric power, with more than 50 miles perfectly realistic in the real world, and performs very strongly when the motor and engine are working together.
