Design
The muscular body of the GLC is wind-tunnel-honed and track-toned. A long wheelbase, big wheels and wide track add up to space, stability and sportiness. Crisp proportions and chrome details reflect its ideal balance of athleticism and elegance.
Space, style and substance: The standards of the GLC.
Go ahead, touch the materials, stitching, and flowing shapes. Feel the precision in its controls and aircraft-style vents. Venture through wide rear doors to the 40/20/40-split rear seats. Even your luggage rides in luxury, with a standard power liftgate.
Fashion that functions: The richly equipped cabin.
There's something for everyone to enjoy in the GLC's menu of innovative options, from handcrafted designo Nappa leather to heated front and rear seats, multicolor ambient lighting, new 3-zone climate control, and a giant Panorama roof.
Performance
The turbo GLC 300 and plug-in hybrid GLC 350e with EQ Power are both energetic and energy-conscious. They embrace the road and your passion for driving with composed comfort and a feeling of confident control. And they reassert the "sport" in SUV.
Rides with refinement. Corners with confidence.
With racing-bred design, the 4-wheel multilink suspension clings to curves yet glides over bumps and is rugged in the rough. Innovative selective damping offers refined comfort, yet firms up instantly in sharp turns.
Sips the fuel. Pours on the power and torque.
With 241 hp and a 9-speed, a turbo GLC 300 can rush to 60 in just 6.3 seconds. Its Direct Injection and multispark ignition can self-tune in milliseconds. The even quicker GLC 350e teams turbo and plug-in power for 320 hp (combined) and 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. [1]
4MATIC: All-wheel drive. For all kinds of drivers.
4MATIC® continually sends the engine's torque to the wheels that can put it to the best use. On slippery roads, it elevates driving confidence. It's lightweight, nimble, and fuel-efficient, to enhance handling and fun year-round. [2]
Nine speeds and five modes. Shifts that suit you.
The GLC 300's 9G-TRONIC automatic is smooth, sporty and smart. DYNAMIC SELECT lets you dial in the GLC's driving character, from enthusiastic Sport mode to easygoing ECO. There's even a mode you can set up as you like.
Innovation
Sensuous shapes deliver sensible benefits for all your senses, from crisp displays to available voice control. Advanced safety systems and driver assists use radar, cameras and more to help make any journey more comfortable, and more comforting.
Intuitive innovation. In tune with your nature.
Clarity comes from its vivid screen to its available Burmester® audio, touchpad COMAND® navigation, or Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto. Intuitive controls, hands-free Bluetooth® and easy-to-personalize settings make technology feel like second nature. [3] [4]
Watches the road. And the driver.
GLC safety keeps an eye on your future. Radar helps spot hazards in your path. A team of standard and optional systems can monitor all around you, alert you, help you brake, and even respond on your behalf to help reduce collisions. [5]
Helpful connections. To set you free.
From the everyday to the unexpected, the new Mercedes me connect helps ease your way. You can control vehicle features from your smartphone. Get help in an emergency. Set up a service appointment. And more, all at no charge for three years, or even longer for many services. You can also add unlimited-data WiFi for a low monthly rate. [6] [7] [8]

Advanced assists. For smoother sailing.
A high-tech suite of systems is available to help make every move easier. Some can make traffic less stressful, from cruising to changing lanes. Others can help you find a parking space, then find your way in hands-free. [5]
A hybrid with an edge. And a plug for your future.
The GLC 350e is the only plug-in hybrid that's also a GLC. So it outperforms and out-innovates: Its 74 combined MPGe is unbeaten by any hybrid SUV. Radar helps it recoup energy as you brake. GPS map data can better its highway efficiency and in-town range, even when you're not navigating. Its gas pedal can even help you drive smarter, sometimes using no gas at all. [9] [10] [11] [12]
