The Mercedes-Benz GLC 200 (2020) is rated for fast performance (7.4s 0-100 km/h) thanks to its MHEV engine, quiet driving and high quality interior (Phase-II facelift with MBUX). The main downsides are high fuel consumption (8.8 L/100km), high maintenance costs, and common problems reported with GLC X253 models, such as 9G-TRONIC transmission shocks at low speeds, premature brake-pedal wear, and engine valve defects.
