For many years, the GLC has been the most popular model from Mercedes-Benz, repeatedly topping the charts as the brand’s bestseller, worldwide. As was the case once again in the first half of 2025. Now, customers can look forward to a fascinating new model: the all-new electric GLC (provisional figures: energy consumption combined: 14.9-18.8 kWh/100 km | CO2 emissions combined: 0 g/km | CO2 class: A) is set to expand the line- up starting in the first half of 2026. Extensive customer feedback from around the world defined the development of the electric GLC from the start. Purposeful, refined and unmistakably a GLC, it further enhances everything Mercedes-Benz customers adore.

The all-new GLC with EQ Technology marks a turning point in the midsize segment. It leads the way with an elevated design language and intelligence powered by the AI-driven MB.OS superbrain. Built electric-first, as the first model in a completely new vehicle family, it excels in performance, range, efficiency and charging speed. At the same time, it sets new standards in its class for design, value, versatility and space: The all-new GLC offers even more legroom and headroom than its conventionally powered siblings as well as an impressive 2.4-tonne towing capacity.

Greeting customers as they step into the all-new GLC is the stunning all-new seamless MBUX HYPERSCREEN. At 99.3 centimetres (39.1 inches), it is the largest screen in a Mercedes-Benz to-date. Combined with warm and inviting ambient light that illuminates even the starry SKY CONTROL panoramic roof, it takes to a new level the unique Mercedes-Benz ‘Welcome Home’ feeling of comfort, safety and being supported. The familiar and intuitive feel of belonging in the all-new electric GLC makes it a welcoming space that seamlessly integrates into the lives of its drivers.

Mercedes-Benz also sets new standards in interior equipment with the optional Vegan Package. This sumptuous suite of interior materials is certified by The Vegan Society. It makes Mercedes-Benz the first car manufacturer worldwide to offer an independently certified vegan interior.

Meanwhile, the all-new GLC’s unparalleled driving experience includes the One-Box braking system. It provides exceptionally smooth, consistent and assured deceleration, whether via energy recovery or friction braking. The MB.DRIVE systems in the all-new GLC take advantage of up to ten external cameras, five radar sensors and twelve ultrasonic sensors to offer first-class advanced driver assistance. And with intelligent air suspension familiar from the S-Class, the all-new GLC guarantees supreme ride comfort. This combines with 4.5-degree rear-axle steering for exceptional agility.

A seamless and intuitive charging experience is also guaranteed with the integrated reservation function for charging stations as part of the MB.CHARGE Public service. Mercedes-Benz is the first manufacturer to offer such a feature. Furthermore, the all-new GLC is equipped with the technology for bidirectional charging.

The all-new electric GLC combines the reliability and elegance of Mercedes-Benz with cutting-edge electric- drive systems and intelligent, intuitive software. Designed to adapt effortlessly to diverse needs and lifestyles, it continues the GLC legacy in electric form – iconic, versatile, intuitive and smooth.

Mercedes-Benz will offer a diverse portfolio of drive systems for every customer requirement. With impressive range, powerful performance and the comfort expected from a Mercedes-Benz, the new GLC defines the future of electric driving. Customers can look forward to the top-of-the-range model at market launch, the GLC 400 4MATIC with 360 kW with up to 713 kilometres of range. Four further impressive models will follow.
