Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

That white interior looks absolutely stunning and would be my choice ahead of the tonka or sienna brown interior.

Light colored interiors are a pain in the ass . They look so good but get dirty within seconds.

It always depends how you take care of them.

Almost all my cars are beige or white inside.

No problems so far.

You have to take care of them, but the lend such an air of quality to them.

That all having been said, they should really do leather to sample interiors. I'm not sure if that is part of Manufaktur, but it should be. At least for the all top-end (63, 45, 65(?)) AMGs and E and S classes.

We always prefer going with either black or dark brown. Since we have pets, they tend to make a lot of mess.
Our only car with a light colored interior was the Volvo XC40, and it was just really hard to keep it stain free. Funny enough, it was actually one of the main reasons why we sold it.

From all leather colors I had owned I like crystal white the most.

That makes sense.

I never had pets, this explains it. And I don’t wear jeans at all.

The GLC and C-Class are family and have always had shared parts.
These vehicles are more closely connected than the GLE and E-Class. I wouldn`t expect any different on the EV side. The upcoming electric C will undoubtedly share parts with this GLC. The headlights, grill and interiors will probably be very close, if not identical like all other past models.
(Edit, I find it interesting the designers did not go with the black grill surround featured on the current E-Class.)

I dont like the Audi style greenhouse, its too long, an unnecessary distinction from the ICE cars, the rest could work.

It appears that M-B has really done it's long overdue homework regarding their interiors. They indeed look very high quality in the film images.

The tech appears immesnsely impressive.

As for the exterior design... Acquired taste. Dedicated M-B fans will like it, I suppose. Not much "WOW ! Factor" though, IMHO. The design affine car fan may find M-B's IAA Mobility presentation anticlimactic. VAG and BMW are offering, IMHO, far more exciting eye candy.

The exterior is going to be an absolute mess IMO.

Where are the memory seat buttons on the GLC? This VLE is an EV only or both EV and ICE?

Just remember, the stains are there whether they're on white, brown or black surfaces... you're just sat in them with blissful ignorance when you can't see them

Its funny you mention your Volvo had light coloured interior, as I used to own a 2013 Volvo S60 T5 with white coloured seats and door panels and the seats had a few marks and stains on them from use over the years and I had to buy seat covers to try and protect the seats. Those seats were the most comfortable of all the cars I owned including my W213.

For me the deciding element to make or break the styling of the new C-class EV is the rear. The shape and length of the boot looks too much like the EQE in the mules, I hope the production car will be different and lean closer to the ICE C-class in its rear design, but with the new tail lights of the GLC, it may look a lot better than we think.
