A Mercedes-Benz C300 car rental that balances polish and punch
Drive a C300
The C300 is a five-seat luxury sedan with a 255-hp turbo four and a mild-hybrid assist. Its 2.0L inline-four pairs with a nine-speed automatic, so a Mercedes-Benz C300 car rental feels refined on the commute and quick on the on-ramp. If you're weighing a Mercedes-Benz rental, the C300 is the compact sports sedan that brings both.
On Turo, you book your C300 from a local vehicle owner and pick a pickup that fits your plans. Each listing shows the year, rating, and price, so you can compare options at a glance.

Turbocharged power with a hybrid assist
The C300's 2.0L turbo four makes 255 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque — enough to make highway merges feel easy. An Integrated Starter-Generator on a 48-volt system adds up to 20 hp and 148 lb-ft of boost. The 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic handles the shifts, and 0–60 mph takes 6.0 sec.
A cockpit built around screens
The C300 puts tech front and center, starting with an 11.9-in touchscreen and a 12.3-in digital instrument cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto bring your maps, playlists, and messages onto the big screen without a cable. Set your phone on the wireless charging pad, and it tops up while you drive.
Passengers can stay online through the Wi-Fi hot spot — handy when someone in the back seat has a deadline. There's even a fingerprint sensor, a small detail that shows how much thought went into the cabin tech.
Efficiency that goes the distance
The rear-wheel-drive C300 earns an EPA-rated 25 city / 35 hwy mpg, which makes it a strong pick for road trips. A 17.4-gal tank stretches the time between fill-ups, and a slippery 0.24 drag coefficient helps the sedan slice through highway air.
The C300 runs on premium unleaded, so factor that into your fuel budget. Before a long drive, check the distance included on the listing. Some local vehicle owners offer unlimited mileage, and extra miles beyond the included distance bring an added fee.
Stand out with a C300
The C300 suits business trips, date nights, and weekend getaways for up to five. It's also a smart way to try a luxury sedan before you buy one. With an 11.6 cu ft trunk and a choice of rear-wheel drive or available 4MATIC, it's an easy pick among car rentals across the US.
Top C300 features
4MATIC all-wheel drive availability
The C300's top features are available 4MATIC all-wheel drive, premium comfort touches, and driver-assist tech that eases the stress of unfamiliar roads.
The C300 comes standard with rear-wheel drive, and 4MATIC all-wheel drive is available. That choice matters most if your trip might include winter weather, when all-wheel drive adds peace of mind.
The tradeoff is small: the 4MATIC version weighs 3,957 lbs and earns 24 city / 33 hwy mpg. Rear-wheel drive comes in at 3,825 lbs and 25 city / 35 hwy mpg. Check the listing to see which drivetrain your C300 has before you book — it's the first detail to confirm for a ski-season trip.
Premium comfort features
The C300 treats you well on long drives, starting with standard heated front seats. Chilly mornings feel a lot friendlier when the seat warms up before the cabin does.
The Exclusive Trim package takes comfort further with 15-speaker Burmester audio and enhanced ambient lighting. The Burmester system gives your road-trip playlist a serious upgrade, and the ambient lighting sets the mood after dark. Features vary by trim, so check the listing details if a specific comfort feature matters to you.
Driver-assist confidence
The C300 helps you keep tabs on your surroundings with standard blind-spot monitoring and park assist. Blind-spot monitoring keeps watch on the lanes beside you, so lane changes on an unfamiliar highway feel less stressful.
Park assist helps when you're squeezing into a tight downtown spot. Add the Exclusive Trim package, and you get a surround-view camera for an even clearer picture of what's around the car. Not every C300 has it, so check the listing if that view is on your wish list.

Top tips and things to know before renting a C300
Get to know your C300
A little prep goes a long way with a C300 — here's what to know before you book.
The C300 drives like any modern automatic, with a nine-speed transmission that does the shifting for you. If the engine goes quiet at a stoplight, that's start-stop behavior from the Integrated Starter-Generator and 48-volt system. Plan your luggage around the 11.6 cu ft trunk.
Need more room? Look at a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon rental for extra space, or a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental for big groups.
C300 driving tips
The best C300 trips start with a few quick checks:
Fill up with premium unleaded, the fuel the C300 calls for.
Pair your phone wirelessly before you pull away.
Check whether the listing is rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC if you're heading into winter weather.
Take odometer photos at check-in and checkout.
How much does it cost to rent a C300?
The cost to rent a C300 depends on location, dates, year, and trip length, and each listing shows the daily price and trip total. Local vehicle owners can offer discounts for trips of three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and a month. Book a non-refundable trip four or more days ahead, and you'll get 10% off.
Staying 30 days or longer? That counts as a monthly trip, so explore long-term car rental options for extended stays.

What documents do you need to rent a C300 on Turo?
To rent a C300 on Turo, you need a valid driver's license and a payment method. At checkout, you'll add your name, email, a phone number that accepts texts, and your payment method. After you book your C300, you'll verify your phone, upload your license, and add or decline protection.
What type of driver's license do you need to rent a C300?
You need a physical, valid permanent license from the US or your home country to rent a C300. A temporary license works if it's valid for the whole trip and comes with photo ID when it has no photo. Learner's permits, photocopies, digital licenses, and an International Driving Permit used in place of a license don't qualify.
How old do you have to be to rent a C300 on Turo?
The minimum age to rent a C300 on Turo depends on the vehicle's class:
Age 18 or older for standard vehicles
Age 21 or older for vehicles with a market value over $20k
Age 25 or older for Deluxe Class vehicles (US fair market value of $45,000–$85,000)
Age 30 or older for Super Deluxe, Classic, and Specialty vehicles
If you're 18–24, you'll pay a young driver fee on your C300 trip.
Do you need your own insurance to rent a C300?
No — you don't need your own insurance to book a C300 on Turo.
Are there discounts on C300 rentals?
Yes, C300 rentals can come with discounts. Local vehicle owners can offer trip-duration discounts for three-day, one-week, two-week, three-week, and monthly trips. You'll also get 10% off non-refundable C300 trips booked four or more days ahead.
Can you rent a C300 long term?
Yes, you can rent a C300 for 30 days or more, which counts as a monthly trip on Turo. Monthly C300 trips can also qualify for a duration discount when the local vehicle owner offers one.
Do C300 rentals come with unlimited mileage?
It depends on the listing. Each C300 listing shows the distance included, and some offer unlimited mileage or an "Unlimited mileage" Extra. If you drive past the included distance, you'll pay an additional distance fee.
Can other people drive the C300 you book?
Yes, other people can drive your C300 once you add them as additional drivers in the Turo app. As the primary driver, you add them yourself, and each one must meet the age and license requirements.
Can you cancel a C300 trip?
Yes, you can cancel a C300 trip. Check the cancellation policy before you book — it shows whether your trip has a free cancellation period. Non-refundable trips trade that flexibility for 10% off, so pick the option that matches how firm your plans are.
* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
