2021 AMG C43 Sedan Exterior
From the outside, nothing has changed for the latest model year and the C43 cuts a distinctive figure for a 4-door sedan with its AMG-specific twin-blade grille, all-LED lighting, and quad exhaust pipes - round instead of trapezoidal to denote the C43's mid-level status in the lineup. Standard alloys measure 18 inches; they are upgradable to a choice of four different 19-inch designs at an added charge of between $850 and $1350. A glass sliding/tilting sunroof is standard.

Dimensions
In terms of its exterior dimensions, the Mercedes-AMG C43 Sedan is a slightly smaller vehicle than the latest 3 Series and Audi S4 sedans, but there's really not much in it. It measures 185 inches long, 79.5 inches wide including the side mirrors, and 56.3 inches tall. Curb weight of the C43 4Matic is 3,825 pounds and it rides on a 111.8-inch wheelbase. The German sedans in this segment have been growing constantly and the W206 is expected to gain another two inches in length on the W205, making the C-Class and 3 Series the same size as the E-Class and 5 Series models of 20 years ago.

Exterior Colors
The US-spec Mercedes-AMG C43 is available in eight colors, with Black and Polar White being the standard colors. The metallic hues cost $720 extra and include Obsidian Black, Iridium Silver, Mojave Silver, Lunar Blue, Brilliant Blue, and Selenite Grey. We think the Selenite Grey looks rather fetching in an understated, Q-car kind of way, but we lament the fact that last year's Cardinal Red is no longer offered for the more extroverted buyer. In fact, all red hues have been deleted from the C43 color palette for the 2021 model year. Brilliant Blue metallic is rather striking though, if you're that way inclined.
