 Show Launched in June this year, the X254-generation 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC shares its MRA2 basis with the W206-generation C-Class that made its debut last February. A host of powertrains accompanied the debut of the 2023 GLC, consisting of mild hybrid as well as plug-in hybrid petrol and diesel powertrains, and now the manufacturer has released a sizeable collection of images of the GLC following the initial batch at its debut. In addition to the GLC200 and GLC300e mild hybrid and PHEV variants shown with the debut of the X254 GLC, pictured here are the GLC220d diesel, the GLC300 petrol, as well as the GLC400e and GLC300de plug-in hybrids. Mercedes-Benz GLC400e 4Matic PHEV Leading the petrol PHEV selection is the GLC400e 4Matic, which features a 1,999 cc turbocharged petrol powerplant that produces 252 hp at 5,800 rpm and 400 Nm of torque from 2,000 rpm to 3,200 rpm. Combined with an electric motor producing 136 hp and 440 Nm, total system output for the GLC400e 4Matic is 381 hp and 650 Nm of torque. Top speed for the GLC400e is 237 km/h, and its maximum in electric-only mode is 140 km/h. For the mild-hybrid petrols, the GLC300 4Matic is the more potent of the two from launch, the other being the GLC200 4Matic. For the GLC300 4Matic, motive power comes from a 1,999 cc turbo petrol that makes 258 hp at 5,800 rpm and 400 Nm of torque from 2,000 rpm to 3,200 rpm, while temporary boost from the electric motor brings 23 hp and 200 Nm of torque. Thus equipped, the GLC300 4Matic does 0-100 km/h in 6.2 seconds and maximum of 240 km/h. Mercedes-Benz GLC300 4Matic mild hybrid The diesel PHEV variant, the GLC300de 4Matic packs a 1,993 cc diesel that makes 197 hp at 3,600 rpm and 440 Nm of torque from 1,800 rpm to 2,800 rpm, and combined with a 136 hp/400 Nm electric motor, provides a total system output of 335 hp and 750 Nm of torque. Acceleration through 0-100 km/h is done in 6.4 seconds, while top speed for the GLC300de 4Matic is slightly lower at 217 km/h, though EV mode top speed is the same at 140 km/h. At launch, this was announced to have 117 km of battery range. Joining the diesel range is the GLC220d 4Matic, which packs the same base diesel engine with 197 hp and 440 Nm of torque, albeit in mild-hybrid guise augmented by at electric motor contributing 23 hp and 200 Nm of torque. Here, the GLC220d 4Matic does 0-100 km/h in eight seconds, and a top speed of 219 km/h. The X254-generation Mercedes-Benz GLC packs plenty of technology over its predecessor, the X253, given the equipment upgrades made possible by having lots in common with the W206 C-Class.

New Mercedes GLC designThe new Mercedes GLC’s design is a case of evolution rather than revolution when you compare it to the outgoing model, however, there are plenty of changes to give it a fresh look. The rear sees some LED tail lights similar to those on the new Mercedes C-Class. Sporty AMG-line models get a more aggressive bumper design front and rear. The grille is wider and more imposing and has subtle cutouts at each upper corner where it meets the new headlights. These are slimmer than those on the outgoing Mercedes GLC and come with LED technology as standard. Down the side, you can opt for either 18- to 20-inch alloy wheels (the exact sizes and designs will depend on which version of GLC you go for). New Mercedes GLC interior and infotainmentLooking inside the new Mercedes GLC, it’s clear that the cabin has taken a lot of inspiration from the Mercedes C-Class. You’ll spot the new 11.9-inch touchscreen infotainment screen instantly. It’s angled slightly toward the driver to make it easier to use on the move, but you can control plenty of the car’s features (such as the climate control system) by using the ‘Hey Mercedes’ voice command system instead. You get a set of polished air vents above the two-tiered dashboard with a new square design and gloss black bezels. This trim matches the finish on the new button-less centre console. A 15-speaker Burmester sound system is available on the options list, as are massaging seats, a panoramic sunroof and a head-up display. New Mercedes GLC enginesThe Mercedes GLC is available with a range of mild hybrid and plug-in hybrid engines. The range kicks off with two 2.0-litre petrol mild hybrids: the 204hp GLC 200 and the more powerful 258hp GLC 300. These cars both use a small electric motor to help save fuel when cruising and coasting to a stop. You get a similar system in the diesel-powered GLC 220 d, too. This car comes with a 197hp 2.0-litre engine paired with the same automatic gearbox and four-wheel drive as the petrol-powered GLC 200 and GLC 300. Two plug-in hybrid engines are available from launch in the UK, one petrol and one diesel. The petrol model uses a 2.0-litre engine and puts out a combined 313hp, while also getting a 31kWh battery.

All plug-in hybrid models use the same 31kWh battery, although the electric-only range depends on whether you go for a petrol hybrid (75 miles) or a diesel hybrid (63 miles).
