Mercedes-Benz - C Class (2002)
If you’ve ever pondered what is a 2002 Mercedes-Benz C Class worth, you’re not alone. The 2002 C-Class model blends classic Mercedes-Benz engineering with the excitement of a sedan that still carries a strong brand cachet, making it a frequent subject of Mercedes-Benz C Class price inquiries. Whether you’re looking at the basics of a used vehicle or the historical context of early 2000s luxury, the market varies tremendously based on condition, mileage, and geographic region, but the overarching theme is clear: the older luxury sedan retains a steady appeal.

Depreciation is a key factor when you consider a used Mercedes-Benz C Class price. In the first anniversary of the vehicle, owners typically see a loss of 15‑20 % in market value, a common trend across well‑maintained luxury cars. After five years, the depreciation curve tends to flatten, but a 2002 model will normally have depreciated roughly 45‑55 % of its original value. Factors such as mileage under 80 k miles, comprehensive service records, and near‑stock condition can shrink that loss to around 40 % by the seventh anniversary. Mercedes‑Benz C Class depreciation brings unique insights: the brand’s reputation for build quality means the vehicle maintains a sturdier value chain, especially when located in markets with high demand for certified pre‑owned luxury sedans.
