Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mercedes-Benz C-Class than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class as you will with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is clearly a better financial choice over the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
Dimensions
Since the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is much slimmer than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot.
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is slightly shorter than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which may make it easier to park.
Handling
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class has about the same turning radius as the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is significantly less powerful than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.
Powertrain
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class has much less torque than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
