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.
I suspect the oil burning all wheeldrive is just to prove that Americans do not want wagons!!
