CAR magazine's full review of the new 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC with pictures, specs and verdict
It’s awfully tricky to be seen by so many when you’re selling an SUV these days, even if you happen to be the oldest car manufacturer in the world. Even so, the GLC has been a massive hit for Mercedes in the UK and Europe. The latest generation tested here was launched in 2023 and aims to keep that strong momentum going.
Then there’s the trim range, which hilariously is just spin-offs of the AMG Line formula : AMG Line, AMG Line Premium, AMG Line Premium Plus. So, on top of a sportier bodykit, AMG sports suspension and larger wheels as standard over other markets, those additional specifications should be treated like option packs that just add more luxuries and tech on board.The new GLC is slightly less ergonomically complex than S-Class and EQS.
Elsewhere, space is decent in the second row and boot space clocks in at 620 litres – bigger than an X3 or Q5 can offer.Overall, the GLC is not a car for the enthusiast – even if precious little in this class really is. There’s some sweet weighting to the steering, though, which makes the GLC quite satisfying to chuck into a bend. It’s welcomely backed up with fluid accuracy – particularly as you wind back off the lock.
And then we come to the engine range. As mentioned, we’ve tested 300 and 300d models on UK roads, and both deliver their punchy power outputs smoothly. Add to the fact that, from our experience, we’re pretty confident the 300d diesel can deliver its claimed fuel economy and the efficiency of the plug-in hybrids cannot be sniffed at – Mercedes has really delivered here.
