Another knockout interior graces the latest Mercedes—and the GLC has an 11.9-inch touchscreen with dash-cam services and full-screen Apple CarPlay.
The GLC-Class can shuttle with the best of its pack, too. It’s always been on the bigger side of compact; now, with 2.4 inches more in length atop the same 113.1-inch wheelbase as before, the GLC doesn’t just dress its space well, it extracts it well, too.
Synthetic leather feels like a self-own here, but it’s virtually a sure bet the AMG versions to come will have the real stuff. So does the glossy black trim on the console, which lifts fingerprints as well as any FBI agent I’ve interacted with . Functionally the center console has its issues: the smartphone charging pad inside it tucks well up under the console, even with the lid open. Clearly, Mercedes engineers want you to put the phone down.
It can handle any weather, and it can pull itself into and out of most traffic situations with aplomb, thanks to one of the smoothest Mercedes 4-cylinders in memory. It’s a 258-hp 2.0-liter turbo-4 that spins out 295 lb-ft of torque. Its integrated mild-hybrid system makes it even smoother and stronger by adding another 23 hp and 148 lb-ft of torque when needed—like from a stoplight start, where the GLC pulls cleanly and quickly off the stripe. Mercedes promises a 60-mph run in 6.
It’s nowhere near AMG territory in power, for sure, and the GLC’s stock tuning hasn’t gotten the good word yet, either. Still, it’s impossible to fault a vehicle with the GLC’s comfort-driven absolutism. With a four-link front and a five-link rear suspension, the GLC hasn’t yet adopted all the tech wizardry that can cope with a lot more power, things like adaptive damping and air springs. It doesn’t need them.
