  • First drive: Mercedes-Benz C200 CGI and C250 CGI









    A switch from supercharging to turbocharging brings more performance and lower fuel use for the better equipped new C200 CGI and C250 CGI.


    Mercedes-Benz has improved the breed of its C-Class volume-seller with the addition of two new four-cylinder petrol models to its line-up.

    Replacing the aged C200 Kompressor’s 1.8-litre supercharged four-cylinder is the C200 CGI and its higher-output C250 CGI sibling for a double-pronged attack.

    Both are available in sedan and wagon body styles (the wagon costs $1890 more) and come under the company’s “BlueEfficiency” marketing label of reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

    Priced from $57,900 (plus on-road and dealer costs), the C200 CGI sedan opens the range with an all-new direct-injection (hence the CGI acronym, which means charged gasoline injection) 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 135kW and 250Nm.
