Coming on sale to the UK in autumn is the new Mercedes-Benz
GLC 220d 4Matic. Big Motoring
World reviews the German manufacturer’s answer to the
BMW X6M.
The five-seat SUV comes with a 2.1-litre diesel engine, with
models producing 168bhp and 201bhp. It will match the X6M both in length and
boot size, and is equipped with the new nine-speed automatic transmission and
full-time four-wheel drive. They each now come as standard with Mercedes, and
as with the company’s larger models, a height-adjustable air suspension system
is an optional add-on, which means that you can venture off-road.
Interior
The GLC’s interior is succinctly similar with the C-Class.
The dashboard is smart and fashionable, whilst the front seats give good thigh
support, even for taller individuals, with headroom and legroom in abundance. It’s
easy to fold the backrests, and the boot is well proportioned while offering
lots of under-floor storage.
Power
The GLC’s pulling power is extraordinary, and the engine
sounds sublime on any surface. The nine-speed auto gearbox shifts with smooth
precision and keeps the engine in its sweet spot with the right ratios. In the
cabin, wind noise is well suppressed too which makes for pleasant motorway
driving. The GLC comes with steel-sprung suspension and adaptive damping
as standard.
Verdict
Overall, an exhilarating and comfortable ride fit for
families and individuals looking to have fun on the road. It’s great on any
surface, particularly long motorways where it is able to excel in comfort,
convenience, style and speed.
