2024 Mercedes-Benz GLC

The redesigned GLC mirrors the C-Class redesign with the same cockpit. It also improves fuel economy and gains some interior room. It also brings an improved suite of standard active safety systems and optional driver assistance features including the ability to change lanes on its own. The standard 255-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine uses 48-volt mild-hybrid setup and we measured a commendable 26 mpg overall. Once past an initial delay, this powertrain wakes up and supplies a decent punch. The ride has an underlying firmness but is steady and the cabin is very quiet. Handling is agile but the brake pedal feels dull. Fit and finish is impeccable and the seats are very comfortable. In typical Mercedes fashion, the controls are distracting. AEB with pedestrian detection, AEB highway, and BSW and RCTW are standard.

Brand context

About Mercedes-Benz

Most Mercedes-Benzes give their owners industry-leading comfort and technology. The cost of that experience is an expensive base price with expensive options and below-average reliability. The brand produces a wide variety of vehicles for the U.S., including coupes, station wagons, sedans, convertibles, and even two-seat sports cars. Its two- and three-row SUVs that we’ve tested have powerful engines and interiors that are roomy and quiet. Generally, Mercedes-Benz fit and finish, inside and out, is exceptional and helps justify prices. Mercedes-Benz’s EVs range from compact to large three-row SUVs. Across the lineup, controls for the complex climate and infotainment systems aren’t as intuitive as we find in other luxury vehicles. Like most European luxury brands, used Mercedes-Benzes can have expensive out-of-warranty repairs, although Consumer Reports has found used models with above-average reliability.
