近日谍照记者拍到了2016款奔驰C级敞篷车进行潮湿气候测试的照片。奔驰近日发布了C级旅行车，因此开始对其他衍生车型进行最后阶段测试，这些车将于明年发布。首先是轿跑车，随后就是这辆敞篷车。虽然奔驰最初决定采用金属顶蓬，但这辆原型车采用的却是多层软顶，其设计类似E级敞篷车。新车动力系统与C级其他车共享，也将包括C63 AMG，该车将搭载新开发的V8双涡轮增压引擎，同时将提供4MATIC全轮驱动以及AIRSCARF颈部热风系统及AIRCAP导流板。这款车很可能会选择在明年的法兰克福车展发布，随后将于年底或2016年发布。预计该车价格将低于SLK，成为奔驰旗下价格最低的敞篷车。

 

2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet spied up close

A prototype of the 2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Cabriolet has been spied undergoing testing on a wet day.

 

Mercedes-Benz recently unveiled the C-Class Estate so now they are putting the finishing touches on other derivatives set to arrive next year. The first of the bunch will be a coupe variant which will be followed by this, a C-Class Cabriolet. Although at first Mercedes-Benz were thinking about installing a metal roof, the model will adopt a multi-layered soft top with a design closely echoing the one on the larger E-Class Cabriolet.

 

Engine lineup will be taken over from the other body styles and will be topped by a C63 AMG variant powered by a newly developed twin-turbo V8 engine. A 4MATIC all-wheel drive arrangement will likely be offered as well along with the AIRSCARF neck-level heating and AIRCAP air-deflection systems.

 

An official launch of the four-seater open-top C-Class will likely occur in September 2015 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, with sales to commence before the end of that year or in 2016. Chances are it will end up being more affordable than the SLK which will make it the cheapest Mercedes-Benz convertible.
