If you read the c300 manual you will find section “for maximum acceleration” … find that it will change your launch. It explains that To engage the rapid rev matched dct shifts first turn tcs off and from the line in sport plus use max brake full gas (no more than 5 sec). The computer now is in launch mode and please do- launch. What this does is engage the dct transmission for high rpm rapid shift as well as take out turbo lag. I found that the transmission shifts much much faster when following the “max acceleration” guide in the cars manual. Perhaps this less known. At track it shaved .4 seconds off 0-60. This is also likely why we see a large range of reported 0-60 times in c300 testing ranging from 5.3 to 5.8 reported.

@@hellcat-707 its not a new trend (for bmw atleast). they have always underrate their cars' performance. they are known to perform better in the real world (under optimal conditions) than what bmw claims. for other manufacturers im not too sure, but im sure some does what bmw does too.
@@zxlrxsyxd I read an article on McLaren understating hp numbers and apparently it was mentioned in the article that a superior fuel would produce more than the claimed numbers and the hp rating was done based on the fuel which gave the worst hp.
As BMW owner this makes me really 😊
Id still go for the merc
So happy that i chose the BMW car and just make a car tour on it too!! The best ever :))
please add the race from 40 km/h to 200 km/h, just like somebody who drive side by side and try to speeding with the ego from each car. BTW, nice video guys, please keep it up...
W205 got 19" wheels while the G20 got 18" wheels. Thats quite a difference. Smaller diameter got smaller radius for a complete turning, which gives slightly benefits on acceleration instead of engine performance itself.
Nah bro the gap was so big! I drive a w205 c200 myself but I have to give BMW all the credits man.
this is a very creative excuse🤣
Lol bmw would still win if it had 20s on it
Genuinely bmw has more torque less weight , and imo transmission always were better
I love BMW but it’s should be C350e not C300
i guess by putting g20 320i also will bend down the merc at the end..
eh...this C300 is one version older then the 330i. Not fair! (Disclaimer: I'm a BMW fan boy too)
The New c class is only 1.5T+48v battery, 0-100 is longer than c300
@@Macabaca-556 There's a new W206 C300 as well.
The old one beats it handedly as well
The newer C300 is even slower.
Pls add in 4 motion Arteon R line for comparison
then these 2 Bs will be seeing the Arteon's tail light
Put m340i vs Arteon R. 330i is low-tier line in Bmw 3 series. VW will eat smoke.
@@user-ke1qj7up3e and a 140k difference

@@mr123undead He must be a Genius to do such comparison
the drag start at 3:19, you are welcome
I'm not sure why people still race a benz against a BMW because the results are always obvious before the race even starts..
Great video 👍👍💪😂
The Honda accord sports 2.0t beat this Bmw in a drag over and over again which is crazy considering the Honda makes less power.
I'm not saying the outcome is wrong, but those 0-60 and 1/4 mile times make no sense for either car. I have a c300 4matic wagon and generally get 5.7-6.2 sec 0-60 times.
wating for this very long time. tks alot
The horsepower is the same but not the weight and that is very important too.
Well. One is geared for performance with its better transmission and aerodynamics, the other is geared more for luxury hence why its interior looks better. BMW has better materials tho but looks boring
Great race, next time the race should be done twice such that drivers exchange cars and race again...
I don’t quite get these numbers I’m convinced they don’t know how to push the c300 thru gears correctly cause I’ve ran 6.1 and 6.2 stock 0-60
Isn't the M a more powerful car than a base C300?
Nice video guys, but you guys should also try doing a rolling start to 40kph and then start the drag race
Hilarious, I just raced a C300 in a 2022 330i on the street today. He had a head start, came flying up from behind and around me, still caught him and passed him lmao
Way to go. Merc fan boy
@@MrBillychin84 he got the full gapplebees menu 🤣🤣🤣
dont cry if you loose to a better car bimmer...nothing to be shameful of...
BMW is the only car that makes Mercedes look bad all the time
Do a drag race between Proton X70 vs X50
They already film it
@@aqilnaufal93 Really when? 🤔
@@jananaathselvan2385 at the intro
I mean the mercs interior isnt outdated and mercs are for luxury and comfort… merc is also considered more prestigious when it comes to being a luxury brand.
BMW is better than Audi or Merc its the class leader.
why is GC Mah's camera not as sharp? looks slightly out of focus too.
Why don’t you all call up S60? I want to see whetter his acceleration time is real or not.
Not accurate as stated in the broucher (4.7seconds). But definitely can do in 5.1 seconds or some certain conditions 4.9 seconds 0-100. So definitely faster than both of these cars here.
I couldn't find the C300 was using DCT coz all article stating it was using 9G-Tronic which is AT rather than DCT. Anyone has source on this C300 is DCT?
Sorry. It is indeed a 9G-Tronic and not a DCT.
@@autobuzzmy No worry
you can just hold the brake in the c300 and it'd build boost just like any how any launch control system would work
You can do exactly the same on Bmw but Bmw makes better engines now everyone knows
@@ardiniko1 mercedes’ makes more robust engines
@@am63ne on Amg’s are quite good 4L and 2L amazing. But the smaller the engine the shittier the quality and definitely far from Robust
@@am63ne unless you’re talking about the Renault ones lol 😂 the Mercedes quality is so far from what people like you think. If you look at the big picture. There’s too many Mercedes owners like myself that agree on this fact, it also depends on the experience because I’m driving them and testing them due to my work
@@ardiniko1 i own two mercedes, a c300 and a c63 i also work on them. i’ve also owned bmws. trust me when i tell you i know what i’m talking about. in the 3 years of owning my c300 not one issue has risen, neither my 63 and i’ve driven them both well into 100k. mercedes’ don’t suffer the same as bmw engines, bmw used cheap plastics everywhere in their engine bays. i also worked at bmw, the new g80 m3 and m4 are already coming back for drive malfunctions- nothing new to bmw.
Malaysian version of carwow 😍
I thought those are Pre premium sedans
They compact executive this is like d segment but not as feel comfortable than d segment & as well executive.
I don’t think the C300 comes with a DCT transmission, it has mercs 9G-Tronic 9 speed auto
The BMW 330i doesn’t have DCT either 😂 what point are you trying to make
Nice video keep it coming
You should do M sport vs amg
Should include rolling race lah.. Copy je matt Watson punya style.
See your mechanic everyday BMW owner 🤣🤣
The Merc might have lost the drag but it wins by miles in terms of looks
the bmw looks much better
@@tanumanhas4264 good for you, but I still prefer the Merc overall. The rear of the BMW just doesn't look as premium to me.
Well can’t argue that the C class looks premium in the rear since it’s just a mini me S class. I want my sports sedan to look like a sports sedan, not a mini me of a luxury barge. That’s why we have choices.
@@avaxis so damn true mate, the Mercedes design is so poor lately I have no Idea how people still like the way Mercedes is designing all cars look the same
@@ardiniko1 heh ? The c300 looks so damm good interior and exterior, its so lux while the bmw looks more sporty. How does a mini s class look bad xd
If with sports mode & launch control 😍
Now do the g80 M3 competition vs the amg c63s
Would like to see a rematch with 45 mph and 65 mph roll starts
car wow??
It’s supposed to be a w206 vs the G20
I had both the bmw blew and engine going 120 constantly on the highway.
Started to burn oil.
C300 Run at hight speed with out an issue
Even without launch control it smoked that C300. I'm glad I chose BMW over Mercedes 😌
Mercedes-Benz C300 0-100 7.74 seconds and 1/4 mile 15.6 seconds? What a lie? My C300 2016 stock 0-100 6.3 - 6.6 seconds and 1/4 mile 14.3 - 14.5 seconds.
What do you expect from those guys. I've got a '18 c300 base, 0-60 5.4" timed on a strip. Those dumb bchs don't know how to setup the Benz. Fucking plebs.
Its kind of doesnt apple to apple isnt it? Since its g20 vs w205?
Everyone sees the cars then smile
Me seeing the Malaysian retired a380 made me smile
Can try 330i with the VW Arteon Rline??
Adrian Chia is back 👀👀 Was waiting for this
Hahaha race of the year! im gonna get the 3 series next year! finger cross xx
Hi Eu Jin, now I’m trying to afford myself a BMW, I want to afford myself this type of 330i BMW, how much is this 330i cost in Malaysia? It costs between $38000-47000 in USA
Should do a roll race, at 50km/h in 3 third gear that would be interesting.
Can you guys do 330i vs 330e?
Still waiting for video iriz vs ativa vs almera. When that video can be released?
22 September
Should have done the race again, but see how much difference launch control makes
Next f80 m3 vs w215 c63 😂
Mercedes came with panorama roof and lager rims. BMW not? The pano roof weighs around 40kg. Do it the other way round and also give some 19" wheels to the BMW and the Merc gets the little ones.
They're so close, it's all about weight and the car-config.
Maybe also the better driving skills of the BMW driver :>
Other tests put the c300 0.2sec slower, so you really have to wonder wtf these bell-ends are doing. It's clearly faked.
dude thats part of the car you can also remove the doors from the car 😅
REAL 0-100 IS 5.7 S (YOURS IS 7.7 WOWWW 😂😂 YOU RE EXTREMELY TALENTED
C300 drive on ECO/Comfort mode ?. 7,74 s to 100km/h is stil 1,7s worst than say in specification.
Nice to see real road test. Official brochure figures can be taken with a grain of salt
@@royalprince5878 i got E300 4matic from 2020, with 258 hp and easly make 0-100 in 6.4s (in sport mode).
@@qikthebesciak With launch control?
@@royalprince5878in c238 there is no lounch control procedure. Just normal start. But you can choose settings betwen Eco, Comfort, Sport and Sport+. In eco, comfort mode, car responds poorly to gas pedal. In sport mod car is much more aggressive.
mercedes is using 9g tronic not dct
Why even race these cars. Would be more interesting to see their interior than racing
Arteon ???
The singaporian accent makes it so much better
KLIA runway?
Able to rent it for this purpose?
C300 7.7 sec something wrong ....and also not using dual clutch transmission. Wrong info.
