All-Electric Mercedes C-Class Enters Production, Long-Wheelbase Version Coming to China This Year
The all-new all-electric Mercedes-Benz C-Class has officially rolled off the production line at the brand’s Hungarian plant, the first core all-electric model produced at the facility. The launch marks Mercedes-Benz’s electrification push into the high-volume premium mid-size sedan segment. Built on Mercedes’ dedicated MB.EA electric architecture and equipped with an 800V high-voltage platform, the model delivers a qualitative leap in charging efficiency and electrical performance over previous converted models, serving as a key volume driver for the brand’s electrification transition.

For the Chinese market, the long-wheelbase version of the all-electric C-Class has already been filed with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and is scheduled to launch in 2026. As a long-time benchmark in the premium mid-size sedan segment, the electrification of the Mercedes C-Class has drawn widespread industry attention. The tight timeline of overseas production followed by domestic launch underscores Mercedes’ determination to defend its market share in the premium electric vehicle segment, setting the stage for more intense competition in China’s all-electric mid-size luxury car market.
