Mercedez-Benz has been out of the compact convertible party for a few years now, but the German luxury automobile brand is back with the C-Class Cabriolet. Available in both a basic C300 model as well as a C43 AMG, the car is a welcome addition to Mercedes-Benz’s lineup. The C43 AMG boasts a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 with 362 horsepower and 384 pound-feet of torque that will allow the car to hit 60 in just 4.7 seconds. The less potent C300 features a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder that results in 241 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. The C300 will hit the market late summer while the C43 will arrive in the fall. Learn more at AutoBlog here.
