Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz GLC

Pros

  • The highly futuristic portrait touchscreen
  • 620 litres of usable boot space
  • Effortless suspension for broken Indian roads
  • Identical pricing for both petrol and diesel engines
  • The transparent bonnet feature

Cons

  • No physical climate control buttons

Verdict

The Mercedes-Benz GLC does not try to be a sharp sports car. Instead, it focuses entirely on keeping its passengers comfortable and isolated from outside noise. The heavy updates to the cabin technology keep it ahead of older rivals, and the 15-speaker Burmester audio system is a major highlight for daily commuters. While you have to accept the learning curve of a buttonless dashboard, the exceptional ride comfort and refined engine options from this vehicle make it a very practical option in the luxury SUV space.

Jaiveer summarises,

“The GLC is no slouch off the line, though its comfort-oriented nature will make it the vehicle of choice for the chauffeur-driven.”
