Someone has managed to snatch a number of spy images of an upcoming convertible model from the luxury German marquee, Mercedes-Benz. We are talking about an open top variant of the German company’s C-Class model here. What makes the car in question even more appealing is that the car wears the AMG badging on it.
This is really interesting, considering that it was only a couple of days ago that the 2016 model year C-Class Coupe from Mercedes-Benz was also caught on camera. Now, nonetheless, we can already lay our eyes on the open top variant of the model. It is believed that this upcoming cabriolet version of the 2016 C-Class will bear a sticker price that is lower when compared to that of the successor to the German marquee’s SLK model, the SLC.
Judging by the look of the car in the spy images, it seems that the upcoming 2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet is going to have massive alloy wheels in addition to huge air intakes on the front fascia. Yet, if we take a close look at the exhaust pipes, it seems that this car will most likely slot under the Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG Sport. The latter benefits from a pair of trapezoidal exhaust pipes.
This upcoming open top variant of the C-Class from the luxury German marquee is reportedly going to benefit from Mercedes’ typical AIRCAP and AIRSCARF components. The former is an air deflector whereas the latter is a heating component installed at the neck level to provide maximum comfort for owners of premium Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
Speaking of the 2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet, it has been reported that customers can even expect the C63 AMG variant. This one is meant to take the competition to the BMW M4 Convertible. For that, Mercedes-Benz has equipped the 2016 C-Class AMG Cabriolet with a 4.0L V8 twin-turbo engine. This engine develops 476 HP and 650 Nm of power and torque in standard trim. Yet, in the range topping S trim, it develops 510 HP and 700 Nm of power and torque.
The 2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet is expected to make its debut during the first half of the oncoming 2016.
