Even if you are planning on buying or leasing a luxury sedan, it is still wise to get the most for your money and make sure that your luxury sedan does indeed have the features you want. That’s why we are going to compare two popular luxury vehicles today. We’ll take a look at the 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan and the 2019 Audi A3. However, we are going to be doing it a bit differently than normal. Instead of comparing the base trims, we are going to be comparing the trims that have a similar Starting MSRP*. This means that we will take the base trim of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, also known as the Mercedes-Benz C 300. This trim is compared to one of the top trims of the Audi A3; the Audi A3 Prestige. Both models have a similar Starting MSRP*, so we will be able to see how much you are getting for your money. Let’s begin.
As you can see, even though the Prestige is one of the higher trims of the A3 Sedan, you can still find yourself with more technology features and perks in the base trim of the C-Class. To start off with, you’ll see more power in the C 300 than in the A3 Prestige. You’ll also have the 9G-TRONIC® automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive.
When it comes to safety, you can also find some features standard on your C 300 that you won’t see standard on the A3 Prestige. This includes standard rear seat side airbags, which are only optional on the A3 Prestige. You’ll also have unlimited roadside assistance on the C 300, whereas the A3 Prestige has a 4-year or 50,000-mile cutoff.
Of course, there are also some great luxury features on the C 300 as well, including standard driver’s side seat memory, so you don’t need to continuously adjust your seat whenever someone else drives your vehicle. You’ll also have the option of cooled/ventilated seats, which is something many people desire in the Arizona heat!
