A new special-edition C–Class has been introduced by Mercedes’Benz, this time based on the top-spec C300 but with a sportier look for lowered price.
The Mercedes-Benz C300 AMG Line Plus Edition is priced at $95,400 before on-road costs, but until June 30 (2026) it’s being offered for $94,900 drive-away.
On its own, the C300 it’s based on (in contrast) is now $99,500 before going to cost for off-road or $107,107 plus ORCs according to a New South Wales postcode.
Mercedes-Benz says the special edition will be offered in “limited” numbers.

The launch of this special edition follows a tweaking of the C300, the flagship of the non-AMG C-Class lineup, in 2025.
It was lowered by $100, but received a swag of other standard equipment including the already mentioned Digital Light LED headlights and Burmester sound system.
Earlier in 2025, Mercedes-Benz also slashed the price of the entry-level C200 by $4800 to $87,800 before on-road costs.
The AMG Line Plus Edition is the latest C-Class in this generation and first based on the C300, following the current C200 Night Edition of 2024 and the new C100 Sport Edition from 2025.
A new generation of C-Class (W206) arrived here in 2022, first in C200 and the latter in guise of “C300”, which cost $90,400 before on-road costs.
The W206 is offered here only as a sedan, though a wagon is available overseas; the previous C-Class coupe and convertible were replaced by the CLE.
Mercedes-Benz delivered 3566 C-Class sedans in Australia in 2022, down 26.4 per cent.
And it’s been a gradual decline since then, with 2625 sold in 2023, 1943 in 2024, and 1425 in 2025.
The German brand has expanded the C-Class lineup, however, not just with special editions but also with last year’s introduction of the plug-in hybrid C350e, priced identically to the C300.
