Orders open for new Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet

The convertible's fully automatic fabric soft top can be opened and closed in 20 seconds at speeds of up to 50 km/h and is available in four colours. The Aircap electric draught stop system and the Airscarf neck-level heating extend the open-air driving season to the entire year.
