On 07/25, Mercedes-Benz announced that the production of the long-wheel-base C class officially starts production in the capital city of China – Bejing, and they have a ceremony to celebrate that.

Mercedes-Benz’s China branch – the Beijing Benz Automotive Company, is formerly the Beijing Jeep Corporation, a joint venture with Chrysler. The corporation is the first foreign automotive company in China.

The LWB C-class is 3.15-in longer in the wheel base, total wheel base is 115 inch. The extended C-class has total length of 187.6-in, and will be on sale in mid-August. Models offered are the C200L and C260L.

While the US market will not receive the LWB version of the W205 C class, it is still good for us to check out the 2015 C260L.

The W205 LWB has a wheelbase of 115 inches, and will start to arrive in dealership lots this July, for the Chinese market. US dealerships will receive the new 2015 C class sedan two months later.
