You’ve seen the official photos and videos of the all-new 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class and now it’s time to watch the first review of the car.

While some may argue it’s not really a review if the car isn’t driven, AutoExpress calls it one, as tester Paul Bond had the opportunity to touch the car and check out its interior in a photographic studio in Germany.

While the exterior is obviously influenced by the styling of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class (not that there’s anything wrong with that, it looks elegant and fluent), the interior is described as a “quantum leap” compared to the previous generation model.

The reviewer was impressed by the quality of the materials, the minimalist layout and the fine details, all reminding of the fit and finish of the S-Class.

Thanks to the increase in size, the C-Class is also roomier, especially in the back. As expected, it features a massive amount of technology as well, even adding air suspension as an option – a first in the segment. But you can find out more about the car by watching the video posted below.
