 | Monday, October 29, 2012 |  |  | New on Autos.ca |  |  |  |  |  | Test Drive: 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 300 4Matic Though it was given a mid-cycle refresh last year, the compact Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan offers a few more changes for 2013, notably in the C 300 model, which now features a bigger, more powerful, yet more fuel-efficient V6 engine, new rear side airbags, and a substantial drop in its base price: 2013 C 300 4Matic models now start at $39,990, reduced from $45,200 in 2012. The C 300's new 3.5L V6 engine, which replaces the previous 3.0L V6, is a de-tuned version of the 302-hp direct injection 3.5L DOHC V6 found in the C 350 (and other Mercedes models). In the C 300, it puts out 248 horsepower and 251 lb-ft of torque compared to 228 horsepower and 221 lb-ft in last year's 3.0L V6 engine.  TEST DRIVE: 2012 MITSUBISHI RVR GT
