Mercedes-Benz
has unveiled the Concept Style Coupé (CSC). As the first and last “c”
in CSC indicate, the new car is a concept of a 4-door coupe design.
The new CSC is powered by a direct-injected 2.0-liter 4-cylinder. With turbocharging, the engine will produce 208 bhp, according to Mercedes. A 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive system are packaged in the drivetrain.
With its 4-door coupe configuration, strong curves and pronounced center grille, the CSC’s styling bears strong resemblance to the F800 concept Mercedes first showed at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show. The diamond-look grille on the vents of the front and rear fascia is striking against the shimmer of the exterior’s company-named Alubeam paint, and is a cue from the more recent Concept A-Class displayed at the 2011 New York Auto Show. Note the profile styling details such as the lack of B-pillars and window frames, and the 20-in. wheels. Measurements for the CSC are as follows: 182.6-in. length, 74.4-in. width and 55.0-in. height.
Underneath the panoramic roof, the cabin is a color mix of light grey and anthracite with neon green and black chrome accents. Carbon fiber, Alcantara, suede and nubuck leather are some of the premium materials used to wrap the surfaces. Similar to the Concept A-Class, the jet engine-inspired air vents are backlit, changing color to reflect the temperature set by the user (blue for cold, yellow for medium and red for hot). Take away the exotic materials and colors the cabin of the CSC appears to be close to a production version—read into that as you may.
The multimedia system on the CSC utilizes the latest in COMAND Online. Taking advantage of Internet connection via a data-enabled mobile phone, applications on the new concept are operated and stored in the cloud—meaning updates to the software can be made without taking the car into dealership. Something owners of all future Mercedes will be able to appreciate.
