The following Mercedes-Benz C-Class W205 was so close to one of our collaborating spy photographers' lens that you can almost feel the new car smell. Either that, or the Mercedes test driver's aftershave.
The fourth generation of the C-Class - of fifth if you're also counting the 190 (W201) - is set to be unveiled in the following months, with our best bet being the North American International Auto Show, in January 2014.
As it was expected, the exterior lines of the new model will follow into Bruno Sacco's design cohesion lineage, with the model having a very mini-S-Class feel to it.
The clearest interior shots of the car yet reveal an interior that looks like a melange between that of the A-Class and the S-Class, with a lot of aluminium buttons, three round air-conditioning vents on the center console and a tablet-inspired screen for the Comand infotainment system.
The quality of the center console seems to have been drastically upgraded, but we're not fans of the steering-wheel based gear shifter for the automatic transmission, but maybe that's just us. We'll know more about that after even more hands-on approach than what is depicted in the adjacent photo gallery. Stay tuned in the upcoming months for more info or even an official reveal of the model.
