Exact U.S. 2004 C 320 4MATIC Wagon, 5-speed automatic, AWD configuration. Specifications do not apply to every year or trim in the generation.
Manufacturer-published inch and millimeter dimensions are retained separately. Current adjusted EPA ratings supersede the original 2004 brochure estimates.
The S203 wagon is offered as a body configuration in the W203 generation group. Its U.S. model-year span is 2002–2005, shorter than the 2001–2007 sedan generation.
The brochure does not separate the 4MATIC wagon curb weight; its listed rear-wheel-drive weight is not substituted. Maximum folded-seat cargo is omitted because narrative and specification-table figures conflict (63.3 versus 63.6 cubic feet).
