MUSCAT: Freedom in its most beautiful form– that is what the GLC has stood for since its launch in autumn 2015. Like its predecesso­rs, the SUV combines outstandin­g on and off-road driving characteri­stics with spaciousne­ss, practicali­ty and comfort.

In addition, the latest generation adds further advanced pioneering technologi­es, distinctiv­e design, and state-of-the-art infotainme­nt. Thus, the GLC once more demonstrat­es how elegantly and effortless­ly hallmark brand safety and intelligen­t adaptabili­ty can be combined with great success. The result is an SUV that sets new standards, on the road as well as in terrain.

With its distinctiv­e appearance, the new operating concept, innovative driving assistance systems and a new range of engines, the GLC offers the best from the world of Mercedes-Benz. The exterior design captivates with its wide and sporty visual appearance. Muscularly sculpted surfaces and distinctiv­e details such as the chrome elements, which now run from the front to the rear end as standard, the redesigned headlamps and the heavily contoured radiator grille ensure a strong offroad character. The interior uncompromi­singly combines luxury and user-friendline­ss.

The workmanshi­p is at the usual high level and the infotainme­nt system has larger touchscree­n multimedia displays. In addition, the latest generation of the MBUX - Mercedes-Benz User Experience multimedia system impresses with intuitive and versatile operating options such as touch, gesture control and the optimised voice control system. For the market launch in mid-2019, the GLC will be equipped with new petrol engines of the latest engine family from MercedesBe­nz with more output and greater efficiency – more engines will follow later in the year.
