Stylish design and dynamic driving pleasure: where the new GLC Coupé comes into its own. As the sporty sibling of the GLC SUV, it rounds off the best-selling Mercedes-Benz series of vehicles.
Striking proportions, dramatic surfaces and precisely moulded edges define an unmistakeable look, complemented by a clearly laid-out, high-quality interior.
The hardware and software of the latest generation of the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system offer even better user-friendliness. Brilliant images in the driver and central display make it easy to control vehicle and comfort functions.
The two LCD screens present clear and structured information. The full-screen navigation gives the driver the best possible route guidance. MBUX Augmented Reality for navigation is available as an option.
The first impression, before the GLC Coupé even starts: elegance, dynamism and offroad adventure.
The intelligent technology highlights pedestrians in the danger zone with a spotlight function and clarifies their position with projected direction points.
The EASY-PACK tailgate is standard. This opens or closes conveniently at the touch of a button using the ignition key, the switch in the driver's door or the unlocking handle on the tailgate.
Standard equipment includes the AVANTGARDE exterior with 18-inch light alloy wheels and the chrome package.
Accentuating the width of the car is the seamless transition from the headlights to the radiator grille. The Mercedes-Benz pattern is standard on the radiator grille cover.
The track widths are larger, by 6 mm at the front (now 1,627 mm) and 23 mm at the rear (now 1,640 mm). The longer vehicle length benefits the wheelbase and the front and rear overhangs. The width has remained the same at 1,890 mm.
The seat design plays with layers and contoured surfaces, lending them visual lightness. The head restraints and their connection to the backrest with an enclosed cover have been redesigned.
The variable steering ratio is also standard across the board. On request the new GLC Coupé is available with the Tech Package. This includes the AIRMATIC air suspension system and active rear-axle steering with a 4.5° steering angle.
As before, the new Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé is also suitable for off-road driving and has several new features and systems designed for that use.
All models are equipped with electric drive technology, either as a plug-in hybrid with an all-electric range suitable for everyday needs or as a mild hybrid with 48-volt technology and an integrated starter-generator for an extra boost and energy recuperation.
