2018 Mazda6 Signature vs 2018 Mercedes-Benz C 300

We've heard many questions on whether you should get the top trim of a ‘normal’ vehicle brand, or the lowest trim of a luxury brand. After all, the luxury brand should have better features and specs, right? Actually, the answer might surprise you. Many luxury brands don’t have the technology features that we are all used to seeing as standard in ‘normal’ car brands. Want us to prove it? Take a look at the 2018 Mazda6 Signature, the top trim of the Mazda6. We pit this vehicle against the 2018 Mercedes-Benz C 300, the lowest trim of the popular C-Class models.

You’ll have a lower Starting MSRP for the 2018 Mazda6 Signature. While the Mercedes-Benz C 300 does have the Mazda6 Signature beat in horsepower and transmission, the Mazda6 does have more torque.

No, it’s not a typo. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class models don’t actually have a touchscreen, which comes standard on most of the ‘normal’ makes and models, such as the Mazda6. While all of the other features listed in the table are available on the C 300, you’ll have to pay extra to get them, while they already come standard on the 2018 Mazda6 Signature.
So, you’ll get more features for less money, even when you go with the highest trim of the Mazda6. Of course, it may not have as much prestige as driving a known luxury brand, but you’ll have the knowledge that luxury vehicles aren’t as cracked up as their reputation suggests.
