After being presented at the New York Motor Show, the new Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé is already on production lines in Bremen, Germany.
Based on the GLC – younger brother of the Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupé -, the compact German crossover features a new front grille, air intakes and chrome accents. With this more dynamic and bold proposal, Mercedes thus completes the GLC range, a model that will rival the BMW X4.
Inside, the star brand tried not to give up the high levels of habitability. Despite this, the smaller dimensions of the cabin and a slight decrease in the luggage capacity (less 59 liters) stand out.
In terms of engines, the new Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé will hit the European market with eight different options. Initially, the brand offers two four-cylinder diesel blocks – GLC 220d with 170hp and GLC 250d 4MATIC with 204hp – and a four-cylinder gasoline engine, the GLC 250 4MATIC with 211hp.

In addition, a hybrid engine – GLC 350e 4MATIC Coupé – with a combined power of 320hp, a bi-turbo V6 block with 367hp and a bi-turbo V8 engine with 510hp will also be available. With the exception of the hybrid engine, which will be equipped with a 7G-Tronic Plus gearbox, all versions benefit from the 9G-Tronic automatic gearbox with nine speeds and sports suspension that includes the “Dynamic Select” system, with five driving modes.
To date, there is no information about the price and arrival of the new Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé in our country.
