The symbol of luxury and prestige in the compact sedan segment


The Mercedes-Benz C-class is tasked with bringing similar levels of luxury and prestige to the compact sedan segment. The interior mostly succeeds, providing high-end materials, modern technology, and the requisite large screens to create an environment that feels a step above its price point. The turbo four and nine-speed automatic transmission follow suit, delivering smooth power to the rear wheels, although all-wheel drive is available.


The new C-Class is available with a 1.5 L / 1496 CC Inline-4L Turbo generating output of 204 hp and a 9G-TRONIC® 9-Speed Automatic transmission. The acceleration from 0 to 100 KM is 7.3 seconds.


The new Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2025 is available at Nasser Bin Khaled Automobiles, the authorized general distributor of Mercedes-Benz in Qatar, in its showroom on Salwa road in Doha.


An expressive exterior

The new C-Class is a sportive incarnation of luxury. It combines dynamic proportions with reduced design lines and sculptural surfaces. The exterior design of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class impresses with its progressive appearance.


The Key features of the equipment line includes bonnet with power domes, LED High Performance headlamps, radiator shell with integrated Mercedes star and a single louvre in matt iridium silver, beltline trim strip in polished aluminum and side window edges in black.


With the Night Package, the expressive black design elements enhance the exterior of your vehicle. These include the exterior mirror housings and trim strips on the front and rear aprons. Tinted windows complete your sporty, individual appearance.


The front is distinguished with diamond grille in star design as well as a single louvre in matt iridium silver. With Digital Light, you experience brilliant lighting conditions. The HD system works like a projector and responds with constantly adapted light to changing traffic, road or weather conditions. The projection features and ULTRA RANGE high beam, among others, can also make your driving experience safer.


With the striking rear end and two-section taillight, the high-quality two-part LED combination rear lamps of the C-Class Saloon captivate onlookers with their day and night design which uses light intensity that automatically adjusts to ambient brightness. The promise of a heightened feeling of quality is effectively emphasized by the precisely designed interior.


With the light-flooded panoramic sliding sunroof, the driver and passengers will experience a fascinating feeling of freedom and a pleasantly bright ambience in the interior. From the outside, your vehicle looks particularly exclusive.


Interior of the C-Class

The design idiom of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2025 was systematically thought through down to every last detail.

The Key features of the Standard equipment line includes seat covers with Tandel black fabric upholstery with contrasting grey stitching, multifunction sports steering wheel in leather with steering wheel cover in black, and stowage Space Package.


The Generous rear compartment concept gives passengers in the rear even more legroom than before.

The head-up display turns your windscreen into a screen. For instance, it shows you all the key information without you having to take your eye off the road. The MBUX multimedia control system adapts to you and your preferences. In this way, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Saloon becomes your digital comfort zone.


With the Burmester® 3D surround sound system, you experience audio performance. The high-quality speakers deliver an impressive surround sound. You can specifically optimise this for the front and rear seats.


Zero Layer simplifies the handling of the MBUX multimedia system even more: with the help of artificial intelligence, this adaptive system displays relevant functions for you on the home screen – without intensive searching.


The Energizing Packages give to priority to your relaxation. Choose from different mood modes, such as "Vitality", "Refresh" or one of the three training programs.


Individual comfort perfectly tailored to you: for the first time, following input from the driver, the C-Class Saloon saves your specific entertainment and comfort preferences. From the temperature to the seat massage function, everything can be optimised and automatically adjusted to personally suit you

 




Equipment highlights - MBUX

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2025 is equipped with several assistant systems that add great value to the driving experience.

MBUX Voice Assistant is your personal assistant. You activate MBUX very easily by saying "Hey Mercedes”. This is how you control lots of functions very intuitively, from the navigation to the entertainment system.


With MBUX touch control concept, you control your new C-Class as intuitively as a tablet. The touch screen is easy to grasp and even easier to operate.

MBUX Augmented Reality shows the road ahead of your C-Class live on the media display. Information and markings then appear that make your journey easy and comfortable. These include road signs, house numbers or information on where to turn off.


Smartphone Integration wirelessly connects the mobile phone to the MBUX multimedia system via Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. This gives you convenient access to the most important apps on your smartphone. You can also use apps from third-party providers such as Spotify quickly and easily.

Assistance packages

Thanks to Driving Assistance Plus Package, you can enjoy the benefits of conditionally automated driving. Systems such as DISTRONIC Active Distance Assist or Active Blind Spot Assist can support you in the right situation, warn you if there is a risk of collision and intervene if necessary. In addition, the PRE-SAFE® Impulse Side protection concept can be used for example, to mitigate the consequences of a side impact. Mitigate the consequences of a side impact.


If you unintentionally leave your lane or get dangerously close to other road users, the Active Lane Keeping Assist can bring you back into your lane with the aid of a steering intervention. If you still leave the lane, however, an additional warning will follow in the form of a steering wheel vibration

Active Parking Assist with PARKTRONIC and 360° camera detects free parking spaces and marked parking spaces as you drive past. After selecting a parking space, you can park with confidence thanks to dynamic visualization and acoustic feedback - or have it assisted.


The convenience of Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC in heavy flowing and stop-and-go traffic is something you won’t ever want to do without again. The system relieves strain by automatically adapting your speed to that of slower-moving vehicles travelling ahead. The desired specified distance can be set in several increments.


Adaptive High beam Assist automatically switches on the high beams if it does not detect any illuminated vehicles ahead or in oncoming traffic. The high luminous range allows you to better see the road and hazards. Press the steering wheel control lever to the high beam position to activate the function.

With Active Stop-and-Go Assist, you enjoy more comfort even in traffic jams. Active Stop-and-Go Assist automatically moves off, keeps to the lane and maintains a distance to the vehicle in front up to a speed of 60 km/h.


With the Memory Package, you can conveniently store and select up to 3 different seat positions. In addition, the positions of the steering column, exterior mirrors and the optional head-up display are stored. If you have created a user profile, you must activate this on the central display in order to call up your setting.


Via THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control, four climate zones enable an individual feel-good climate on board. Driver, front and rear passengers can regulate the climate comfort to suit their personal needs. You can set the temperature, air distribution and air volume separately in 4 zones.


The AIR-BALANCE Package individually scents the interior - matching your personal preference and depending on your mood. Thanks to refreshing ionization and purifying filtration of the outside and inside air, it contributes to improved air quality on board and an increased sense of well-being.

Maximum comfort for your everyday driving: with the KEYLESS-GO Comfort Package[1], you can unlock, start and lock your vehicle simply by carrying the key. The HANDS-FREE ACCESS function allows contactless, fully automatic opening and closing of the tailgate.


The PRE-SAFE® system makes use, on your behalf, of the time prior to an impending accident. A host of measures are able to reduce the stress and strain to which you are exposed. The innovative PRE-SAFE® Sound generates a noise from the speakers which triggers a natural protective reflex that can prepare your hearing for accident noises.


The suspension with adaptive damping adapts to you: select from Comfort, Sport or individually according to your wishes very easily via the DYNAMIC SELECT switch. The sports suspension with selective damping increases the fun factor during fast cornering. The firmer setting of the springs, dampers and the sports direct steering, together with the lowering by 15 millimeters, ensure more direct handling.


The AGILITY CONTROL suspension with vehicle lowering provides you with optimum road holding without compromising on comfort. The Selective Damping System ensures a superior driving experience because it automatically optimizes damping effect and stabilization.





TRILOBE, THE EXQUISITE HOUR


We are watchmakers of poetry, and Trilobe is a craftsman who shapes time. In

a deliberately composite approach, the Maison is renewing itself by exploring

for the first time the world of lyrical horological complications, with a timepiece

adorned with a moon phase.


Reinventing time and breaking away from preconceived ideas requires not just

audacity, but true poetry. Trilobe watches are a reminder that time is a treasure,

and that the hour is exquisite!





TRILOBE ENTERS THE WORLD OF WATCH COMPLICATIONS


With this new edition belonging to its first collection, "Les

Matinaux", Trilobe wants to push poetry to a higher level, by

linking time with its most ancient element: the sky.


In this new temporal setting, an enchanting celestial door opens

at the heart of the dial, within a polished and satin-finished

flange. It reveals a ballet of stars dancing on a sapphire crystal

to the rhythm of the seconds. Beneath this celestial waltz, two

moons intertwine in a rhythmic you-and-me. They face each

other in the night sky of the sunray disc, metamorphosing to

the rhythm of this new X-Centric calibre.





A WALTZ OF CELESTIAL WONDERS, LYRICAL AND ENCHANTING


On a sand-blasted dial, Trilobe takes its eccentric complication one

step further with a waltz of moons. A gear wheel with 59 cogs evokes

the orbit of the Moon around the Earth, completing a full cycle of

29.5 days.


Through this mechanism, the moons quietly reveal their

age. For the first time, the moon phase is co-axially linked to the

seconds wheel, under a dynamic and mesmerizing starry sky. Les

Matinaux are thus honored: three rotating rings bear the Maison’s

first complication.





AN INVITATION TO CONTEMPLATION AND ENCHANTMENT


Through its dreamlike essence, the moon phase resonates with Trilobe’s

guiding principle: to re-enchant our relationship with time.


"Être dans la lune" * is to surrender to the magic of the present moment, to

savor the "exquisite hour". It’s letting yourself be carried away by the emotion

of a starry sky from your window, by the palpable excitement of a bright full

moon in the darkness. Let’s take the time to adore the stars, to marvel at the

heavens, far from the immediacy of our daily lives. It’s a welcome break in the

whirlwind of life, an opportunity to connect with something greater than us.

It’s also to understand that time is but a value of Earth, that it is not absolute.

Additional updates include an updated Auto Blocker, added Maximum Restrictions settings, enhanced Theft Protection, and a new Knox Matrix dashboard to monitor the security status across a connected device ecosystem.


Galaxy’s Most Powerful Performance Ever

The Galaxy S25 series is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy. As the most powerful chipset ever[4], customized for Galaxy, it delivers a performance boost of 40% in NPU, 37% in CPU and 30% in GPU. This power fuels the Galaxy S25 Series’ ability to process more AI experiences on-device without compromises, including previously cloud-based AI tasks such as Generative Edit[5].


For the first time, Samsung has integrated proprietary innovations into the chipset. ProScaler uses advanced, efficient AI image processing to achieve a 40% improvement[6] in image accuracy, while Samsung’s mobile Digital Natural Image engine (mDNIe) enables greater display power efficiency.


The chipset also provides sustained usage thanks to a 40% larger vapor chamber and a tailored thermal interface material (TIM) that delivers a 20% improvement in thermal efficiency.


Unleashing Truly Pro Creation

The Galaxy S25 delivers ultra-detailed shots at every range, setting a new standard for mobile photography.

It also unlocks four times the detail in macro photography, revealing intricate textures like never before.


Low-light videos have never been clearer than with Galaxy S25[7]. A Spatio-Temporal Filter, which analyzes movement and time to reduce noise more effectively, is built directly into the chipset for the first time. This integration allows the ProVisual Engine to detect moving and static objects with greater precision, ensuring sharper, cleaner footage in any scenario. Plus, 10-bit HDR recording offers four times richer color expression compared to 8-bit.


Galaxy S25 also introduces a range of tools once limited to specialized software, making advanced editing accessible for all. Now anyone can be a pro at editing photos and videos. Audio Eraser simplifies the removal of unwanted noise in videos. By isolating categories of sounds – including voices, crowds, wind, music, nature and background noise – you can control what to tone down or eliminate entirely.


For a DSLR-like experience on mobile, Galaxy S25 introduces depth-of-field control with Virtual Aperture, integrated into the popular Expert RAW mode. Galaxy S25 also elevates cinematic creativity with Galaxy Log, enabling precise color grading options for more professional video production.

 

Durable Design Embracing a More Circular Approach

The Galaxy S25 Series builds upon a heritage of iconic design with an approach grounded in simplicity, emotion and impact. Galaxy S25 Ultra boldly refines the essence of Galaxy design as the slimmest, lightest and most durable Galaxy S Series ever, with a rounded design for improved grip and a premium look – and a 15% reduction in thickness[8].


Galaxy S25 Ultra features durable titanium and the new Corning® Gorilla® Armor 2, a first-of-its-kind material that is more durable than glass. It incorporates ceramic helping to ensure advanced drop protection alongside next-gen DX anti-reflection surface treatment and scratch resistance.[9] 


Every external component of Galaxy S25+ and S25 now includes at least one recycled material[10], as their metal frame incorporates recycled armor aluminum for the first time[11].

For the first time, Galaxy S25 Series will use batteries made with recycled cobalt sourced from previously used Galaxy devices or batteries discarded during their manufacturing process. Every Galaxy S25 Series device uses a minimum of 50% recycled cobalt for its battery, Galaxy S25 will be the first Galaxy smartphone to feature batteries made with recycled cobalt sourced from old Galaxy devices or the batteries discarded during their manufacturing process. Samsung goes through multiple stages with its like-minded partners, from extracting cobalt from used batteries to re-using the recycled cobalt for the batteries of Galaxy S25.


Combined with seven generations of OS upgrades and seven years of security updates[12], the Galaxy S25 series ensures a reliable and optimized performance over a longer lifespan.  


For greater peace of mind, Samsung Care+ offers comprehensive coverage for accidental damage, repairs, and replacements, ensuring peace of mind for Galaxy users. Plus, Samsung is introducing the New Galaxy Club[13]. This flexible subscription model is designed to make owning and upgrading Galaxy devices more convenient than ever. Regional details and availability will be announced at a later date.
