Ever wondered what is like to drive a brand new Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W205) and haven't yet gotten the chance to actually drive one?
Most likely, as even though it was unveiled at the 2014 North American International Auto Show back in January, there is only a handful of places where you can actually see one on the road, let alone drive it.
Among those places there is of course Germany, with the C-Class being – you know – German.
Car-spotter and YouTube use 93lchbinich recently had a chance to actually test drive an all-new Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W205) and was nice enough to film part of his experience with a GoPro camera somehow attached on top of his head.
The model testes is apparently the C 200, which is currently available only in Europe and is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 184 hp and 300 Nm (221 lb ft) of torque.
Paired with the again Europe-only manual transmission with six speeds, this C-Class also uses a different design for the center console compared with the automatic version for reasons of interior space.
The footage is short and highly uneventful, but it can give you an idea about what is like to drive the new C-Class.
