Mercedes-Benz GLC 250d Coupe Review
The Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe combines its maker’s successful design language of its coupe cars and SUV. The result is a sensual piece of art with pretty decent specs.

Recently, Top Gear reviewed the Mercedes-Benz GLC 250d Coupe, the diesel model of the SUV. Here are their thoughts about it:

Extra Stylish
For a price tag of around £41,000, the Mercedes GLC Coupe boasts a sexier design for an SUV. Top Gear praised the SUV coupe to be extra stylish inside and out. It is definitely a worthy adversary to the BMW X4 and Porsche Macan in the market.

The interior of the auto is excellently laid out. Despite touchscreen of the SUV sticking out of its dashboard, it is positioned exactly in the line of vision of the driver. Then its navigation, communication and entertainment features are user-friendly

In addition, the seats give that feeling of comfort and the quality is great, thanks to its use of meticulously-laid out fine materials. The floral perfume oozing from the vents of the GLC Coupe as it starts up is also a plus.

Agile
The GLC Coupe nearly matches the Macan in agility. The source was impressed of its cornering ability despite its 1,845 kg frame. Driving and parking are made easier too because of its onboard cameras and sensors.

Decent Engine
The GLC 250d Coupe is equipped with a 2.1-liter four-cylinder diesel engine. This particular model’s starting output is at 170 bhp, but Top Gear used the 204 bhp version of the auto, which is capable of accelerating from zero to 62 mph in around 7.6 seconds.

The engine of the GLC 250d Coupe is quiet, especially in the cabin of the vehicle. The report noted that the SUV consumes 56.5 mpg.

Saw my first GLC Coupé today. Actually, was smitten at how cohesive it looks. Much, much better than the GLE coupé, which is one the ugliest thing to ever came out of Germany (so are the present X6 and X4) What strikes me the most, is the major part of the GLE I see are the full blown AMG.

Hot Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 Coupe spied in the cold
The 'Panamericana' grille might be hiding behind that grid pattern camouflage.
The exact same prototype was caught on camera in the first half of December and now it’s back to pose for the spy camera once again. The shape of its quad exhaust tips is a telltale sign we’re looking at the range-topping "63" model, which compared to the warm "43" will also bring some changes at the front. The disguise applied on the front grille is probably an indicator the folks from Affalterbach have plans to install the "Panamericana" grille with vertical slats as seen recently in the refreshed AMG GT family and in the A-Class Sedan teaser.

More aggressive front and rear bumpers are also on the agenda, along with larger alloy wheels and a rear diffuser, which as you can see this test vehicle did not have. Mercedes-AMG is going to install beefier brakes to match the extra punch coming from underneath the hood where the GLC 63 Coupe will have a biturbo 4.0-liter V8 engine.

Details about how much power it will deliver in this new application are not available at this point, but it will likely have at least the 503 hp (375 kW) and 516 lb-ft (698 Nm) offered by the C63 S models. As you would expect from a "63" model, the high-performance crossover will be sold exclusively with an all-wheel-drive 4Matic setup.

If you’re not too fond of the crossover-coupe niche, you’ll be happy to hear there’s going to be a regular GLC 63 as demonstrated several times in spy shots. Both of them are expected to see the light of production day later this year, but most likely the two are not going to be revealed at the same time.

Besides the GLC 63 dynamic duo, Mercedes’ performance arm will host another (and much more exciting) premiere in 2017. We are talking about the F1-engined Project One already confirmed for the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.

When do we get to see the "63" twins?

M

Could Geneva be too early? :)
Sources expect the GLC 63 to arrive first at this year's Geneva motor show.

It appears the GLC 63 may get MB's vertical "Hannibal Lecter" grille.

I wonder which Asian brand will be first to copy.

Daimler found some inspiration recently. :)
