Following the 300SL Gullwing's lead a year earlier, the fuel injected Type 300 Sc appeared in 1955. Slightly detuned, its inline-six delivered 175 PS (129 kW; 173 hp) at 5400 rpm. Mercedes-Benz's "low-pivot" independent suspension being fitted in the rear. Visually, only a pair of chrome strips on either side of the hood distinguished the "Sc" from its precursor.
Prices rose to DM 36,500, and 98 Coupés, 49 Cabriolet As, and 53 Roadsters were built through April 1958.
