2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC Review : International Launch - CarAdvice
This is the Mercedes-Benz GLC, arguably one of the company’s most important new model launches in years. Priced from $64,500, the GLA sits in line with these German rivals, though in atypical fashion the entry variant is powered by a diesel engine. The GLC is based on the C-Class, and it shares the car’s cut-above fit-and-finish and uncluttered layout. Space and comfort in the rear is outstanding for the class. At 580 litres expanding to 1600L with the seats folded flat, cargo space in bang-on for the class. You also get an electric opening and closing tailgate and even a nifty electric folding towball. On road, the GLC feels like a higher-riding C-Class. It’s composed and quiet, with commendable ride compliance on its large 19- and 20-inch wheels, especially when the driving mode is set to comfort. There’s some pitch through corners, and the steering is light and lacking a little feel-and-feedback — though the chassis feels well balanced. Set the mode to Sport or Sport + and the GLC sits flatter mid-corners, and the throttle response gets sharper. Source: www.caradvice.com.au
