the mercedes benz c class wagon is coming to north america

* But not the U.S. — at least, not yet.

Add the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Wagon to the list of vehicles available in Canada and not the United States. Mercedes-Benz Canada announced Thursday it would begin selling the long-roof version of the C-Class this year. To add insult to injury, it will be a diesel with all-wheel drive — and that’s it.

Mercedes did not disclose what shades of brown will be available.

The previous-generation C-Class wagon was not available in Canada or the United States.

When the C-Class Wagon goes on sale later this year, it will be powered by a 2.1-liter four-cylinder turbodiesel engine producing 200 horsepower and 369 lbs-ft of torque sending power to all four wheels through the automaker’s 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system. While not detailed, the C-Class Wagon will likely receive the same seven-speed automatic as the E 250 BlueTec.

MSRP and exact on-sale date were not disclosed.

So, who’s going to be visiting The Great White North this year?

Those E-wagons, and I assume all E-class are pretty discounted with the all new replacement on the horizon. I'm going to have to replace my 2000 E-wagon some day and was kicking around a local dealer. The salesman started at 8k under sticker, even though I told him I'm not in the market. Lightly optioned, you can probably get near $50k. It ain't cheap, but a lot of car for the money. The AMG version is still 6 figures though.

Jkross22 Had the first Hornet siting yesterday. It's a good looking rig in a hot category that's priced as though it's an appreciating asset.
Jkross22 This and the Oldsmobile Aurora proved that American car companies could design really interesting cars. Cost cutting torpedoed them and lazy, incompetent leadership ensured their lifespan would be cut short. 10 years earlier, Ford did the same with the original Taurus. Great design eventually trashed.
28-Cars-Later Glorious.
Bd2 The one thing I really do like about this NA is that the headlamps aren't permanently propped open. It honest looks like a lot of fun and maybe $20K isn't so steep to the right buyer.
28-Cars-Later So this is the new Land Cruiser, which is a cousin of 4Runner now since they are both effectively Land Cruiser Prados?
