2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC SUV
Overview
Mercedes-Benz created a winning formula with the original GLC, and for 2020, the automaker has revisited this outstanding SUV, with a complete redesign that’s sure to inspire any Mercedes-Benz enthusiast. What hasn’t changed, though, is the GLC’s adventurous spirit and go-anywhere attitude. With impeccable on- and off-road manners, the GLC is the perfect vehicle for drivers who want to push the limits without sacrificing a certain level of luxury.
The Perfect Ride For…
The demanding driver. If you’re the kind of driver that has come to expect a lot from your vehicles, Mercedes-Benz redesigned the GLC with you in mind. Available with the Mercedes-Benz exclusive 4MATIC all-wheel drive system and a 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission, you can expect industry-leading performance. Powertrain options let you choose how much power and performance you get from the GLC, but even the GLC 300 is no slouch.
Drive & Handling
The GLC 300 and GLC 300 4MATIC SUV are both offered with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces up to 255 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. That small displacement engine translates into fantastic fuel economy while the horsepower and torque figures tell the story of an SUV built for performance. Opt for the GLC 350e 4MATIC, you’re getting that same high-performance turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but with an additional 85kW electric motor. That electric motor brings the horsepower up to 315 and the torque up to 413 pound-feet. That means you get even more performance and power, while keeping your carbon footprint and gas costs at a minimum.
For ultimate control in slippery conditions, the available 4MATIC system delivers. This intelligent four-wheel drive system constantly reads the road, and always sends the right amount of power to each wheel. This creates optimal traction and handling, no matter what you face out there. Independent multi-link suspension provides an agile cornering and precision.
To further immerse yourself in the Mercedes-Benz experience, the Dynamic Select system allows the driver to fine-tune the throttle response, shifting, and ECO Start/Stop system, to deliver driving response tailored to your needs.
Key Features
Safety
As one of the leaders in autonomous driving and safety, it’s no surprise that Mercedes-Benz has equipped the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC with the latest in driver assistance technology. Standard and available features like Active Brake Assist, Blind Spot Assist with Exit Warning Assist, Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC, Attention Assist, Crosswind Assist, PRE-SAFE, and adaptive braking technology work to prevent accidents and mitigate damage when possible. A rearview camera combined with LED daytime running lights, LED headlamps, LED taillamps, and rain-sensing windshield wipers give you a clear field of view, no matter where your adventure takes you.
Multimedia
Staying connected is almost as important as staying safe. Sometimes you can’t afford to miss an important call, and it’s hard to enjoy a long drive without your favorite playlist to sing along to. Mercedes-Benz has you covered though because the new GLC comes standard with Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and a 10.25-inch touchscreen multimedia display. That means you can connect seamlessly to a compatible device and have access to all of your favorite apps, music, and contacts, through the infotainment system. Navigate the controls easily with Mercedes-Benz User Experience, which responds to natural speech.
