The new Mercedes-Benz C-Class is the first car in this market segment to have an Environmental Certificate. The certification body of TÜV Süd Management Service GmbH has confirmed the saloon’s environmentally focused development, which results in further advances over the entire vehicle lifecycle in important areas such as fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and selection of materials. Mercedes-Benz is the only automotive brand worldwide to possess this hard-to-obtain certificate.
After careful assessment the experts of the German technical inspection authority TÜV determined that the development process of the new C-Class accords with the requirements of the internationally recognised ISO standard 14062. Applying the concept of “Design for Environment”, this standard governs the integration of environmental aspects into product design and development. In addition, TÜV checked and confirmed the data and statements contained in the environmental product information provided for the new C-Class. Mercedes-Benz has summarised this information in a brochure which will be available on the internet as of January 19, 2007 at
