The new 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC brings added versatility and improved efficiency
June 02 2022,
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC introduced this week brings improved functionality and versatility as well as more technology and more features. It has everything buyers want from a compact luxury SUV, and it delivers impressive off-road capability and efficiency as well. It all starts under the hood where a new mild-hybrid powertrain promises to offer better efficiency with improved performance.
A new mild-hybrid powertrain for the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC will be powered by a 2.0-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder engine that offers 255 hp and 295 pound-feet of torque. This is a significant improvement over the previous GLC in terms of torque, but the largest and most significant improvement can be found in the efficiency department. There, you will find a mild-hybrid 48-volt system which not only delivers added performance thanks to available boost when needed, but the new system also dramatically reduces fuel consumption.
Other improvements made to the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC include a larger interior with more passenger space as well as 50 L of extra cargo space. New advanced driver assistance technologies are also added and the GLC will also feature improved towing capability.
The Mercedes-Benz GLC has always been a very capable off-road vehicle and this is further enhanced in the new GLC. Every model will get a standard off-road driving mode as well as off-road screen that provides important information such as gradient and inclination. This screen will be housed in a new 11.9-inch centre display with a portrait orientation like in the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Moreover, the 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC will be offered with a new 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a new MBUX system. And back to off-road capability, the GLC 300 will add a new “transparent hood” system in 2023 which provides added visibility in close quarters to make driving the GLC off-road even easier.
