AutoExec Summary
James reviews the Mercedes-Benz C300e Hybrid, highlighting its usability and performance. Pros include its prestige, electric-only range, and driving dynamics. However, some cabin elements feel subpar, and effective use requires a home charger. The C300e combines a 2.0L turbo petrol engine with an electric motor, offering 245kW combined power. Priced at $84,000 (before options), it offers generous equipment but suggests adding the Comand package for a complete experience. The car shines as a commuter but is heavy and less dynamic in spirited driving. It’s ideal for those who can regularly charge it and don’t need extensive boot space.
Brands mentioned: Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Continental, Burmester, Commodore
