I wonder if M-B will bring in a gas version as well if the customers ask.

The C300 4Matic (sedan) starts at $43,800. Wonder if the diesel wagon will start around $45K? Looking forward to checking one of these out.

So a fully loaded Golf Wagon 4-motion or base MB?

It is always nice to welcome another wagon to our shores and great to see Mercedes recognizes Canada as
distinct market with different tastes.

Mass market manufacturers would do well to take the hint.

If the price you provided is correct, the Wagon will start at the same price as the sedan - and that's awesome news!

Ugh! $43k for a Golf Wagon is too much money for a VW!

This is obviously MB's response to the BMW 320d which is nigh-on impossible to find here.  When we went looking, Montreal dealerships had their next 9 months' allocations already spoken for.

Wagons are more than sedans.  Plus the diesel is usually more (but with the previous GLK, it was cheaper).  I suspect somewhere closer to $48k, especially with the dollar.

What they recognize is that the 3 series is offered in wagon form and Mercedes wants those sales.

Exactly. I don't see this undercutting the 328d wagon by much.

Video walk around and inside...

Interesting that in this video it shows the price stand with a starting price of ONLY $43,000?

That depends.  MB has shown they will under-price their diesels in comparison to the gas models while BMW treats their diesels with a more premium approach by including more baseline features than the gas models. 

Some examples: 

GLE 350d = $63,200
GLE 400 = $63,800

GL 350 BT = $79,700
GL 400 = $80,800

E 250 BT = $64,500
E 300 = $65,500

If the upcharge between the E-Class sedan and wagon is any indication percentage-wise I would estimate a $3K premium for the C-Class wagon.
