All-wheel drive

Our number one on all four wheels: 4MATIC all-wheel drive.

When starting off, accelerating, cornering at speed, or driving on light off-road terrain, the 4MATIC enhanced permanent all-wheel drive from Mercedes-Benz, available as standard for many of the new GLC model variants, delivers outstanding off-road performance and optimum traction. The all-wheel-drive system is constantly active and does not require any time to react and intervene. In this way it ensures unique directional and driving stability, especially on slippery surfaces due to rain, ice or snow.

Engine technologies

Powerfully into the future with EQ Boost.

Powerfully into the future with EQ Boost.

The electrified petrol engines with EQ Boost in a choice of two power outputs are ready for action. A belt-driven starter generator with 48-volt starter generator and on-board electrical system generates additional torque for dynamic performance. In addition to this, the battery is charged during deceleration, and it is possible to glide almost silently while consuming less fuel in gliding mode.

Safety and assistance

Counters the slightest of risks with immense intelligence.

Whatever happens: the new GLC can protect its occupants more precisely and intelligently than ever before.

This is thanks to a wealth of intelligently networked safety and assistance systems that relieve and assist you, particularly in monotonous or tricky driving conditions such as in traffic jams, on roundabouts, or at junctions. You and your passengers are always in the best of hands.
