From July 2023 the GLC was available in Coupé form; within months the 429bhp GLC 43 AMG and 671bhp GLC 63 AMG had joined the range, and within another few weeks these were also available in coupé form.
Fast forward to 2026 and the first electric GLC 400s will be delivered this summer, followed by the first GLC 53 AMGs, with a 443bhp 3.0-litre motor.
Which one should I buy?
We’d opt for the more prosaic models, because the AMG editions don’t feel special enough compared with the rest of the range, and they’re too expensive for what they offer. Whether you go for an SUV or a Coupé is down to personal preference; both offer decent practicality and values aren’t very far apart.
As for trim levels, AMG Line is the entry-level model and this has 19-inch alloy wheels, fake leather trim, an electric tailgate, ambient cabin lighting, electrically adjustable heated front seats with memory, dual-zone climate control, front and rear parking sensors plus a rear camera, and navigation.
AMG Line Premium adds digital headlights, acoustic glass, 20-inch wheels, keyless go and four extra USB-C ports. The range-topping AMG Premium Plus also has an opening panoramic glass roof, four-zone climate plus real leather.
On the road
The engines and transmissions are superb; the hybrid tech smooths things out and the nine-speed transmission provides silky-smooth gearchanges. Refinement is also excellent; on the motorway the cabin is hushed, with little in the way of wind or road noise.
Other aspects of the way the GLC drives are less impressive, with vague steering marring the experience. The other problem if you buy a GLC with big wheels (and most examples have larger alloys) is a harsh ride over broken road surfaces; the optional air suspension really improves things in this regard.
Prices
There’s plenty of choice in the classifieds. About one in five GLCs is a coupé, and there’s an even spread of plug-in petrols, diesel engines and mild-hybrid petrols; plug-in diesels are few and far between. There are also quite a few AMG editions to choose from (GLC 43 and GLC 63, from £53k and £68k respectively).
