Mercedes-Benz GLC

"Handles very well for an SUV. Although a turbo 4 cylinder it has sufficient power. Very quiet on the road particularly with acoustic glass."

"Small engine but outstanding acceleration using all nine gears..."

"Strong acceleration whenever needed, no matter how fast I am going. Nimble, inspires confidence, drives much like a car. Still, it's handling pales in comparison to my 2015 Mazda 6 and the 2008 Infiniti EX35 and 2008 Acura TL I had. It's a jacked up wagon, the jacked up part compromises handling, with the left and right sway that comes with being on stilts. With the 19" run flat tires tires and no air ride suspension, sometimes the front wheels take pot holes and freeway bridge joints surpri..."

"Love the handling of the car. Great acceleration."

"Very fast off the line which is of great assistance when changing lanes or passing. This vehicle is an absolute joy to drive."

"Acceleration and handling ok but find it a very rough ride"

"In the S and S+ mode it is very responsive and stable in the turns."

"The turbo 4 ended up to be a pleasant surprise in terms of performance. The 9 speed auto had much to do with the excellent acceleration and highway performance. Really liked the air suspension that provided excellent handling and multi-mode ride settings."

"The figures ordered make this car outstanding in curvy mountain driving"

"Smooth ride, can dial in sport handling, has great acceleration and good handling for an SUV"

"too many recalls and gas mileage for a 4 cylinder should be better"

"Acceleration is effortless and smooth. accelerates quickly. Handles well which makes maneuverability easy safe."

"When we first purchased our GLC, it had an occasional twitch or shudder in the steering when hitting large bumps in the road. After doing some research online, we found this was a commonly reported issue with these vehicles. We inquired at the dealership and discovered that a software update for the steering was available. WOW...what a difference! The car is much more stable now and drives like a Mercedes should...stable and confident, with great handling. We're now enjoying the GLC more than ever."

"The acceleration leaves me a bit underwhelmed, especially when used during overtaking. Perhaps that's because my other car is a Tesla. But it handles beautifully. One downside is when on automatic cruise control, it doesn't handle sharp corner very well (compared to the Tesla) and brakes very abruptly when approaching slow traffic."

"The handling is very good and stable. The acceleration is quick and responsive."

"The various combinations of gear ratios and engine provide the responsiveness I like."

"Great engine, steering, handling and fantastic breaks"

"acceleration performance"

"Acclerartion good Quick handeling responsive"

"Remarkable acceleration for a 4 cylinder engine, especially in the sports modes. Handling is crisp, accurate and predictable"

"Very fun car to drive. Smooth and extremely fast acceleration. Steering is so precise. Car is very easy to handle. I love driving this car!"

"Quick and powerful acceleration and precise handling. Excellent sterring"

"Mercedes can not resolve a problem with road noise"

"Strong acceleration and fun to drive."

"Run flat tires suck."

"This is an extremely stable vehicle. The cross-wind stabilization system works wonders to keep outside influences from pushing the car around in difficult conditions. While traversing on I-80 in Wyoming last February we had 60 mph cross winds on this mountainous icy road with blowing snow - it was steady as a rock at 50-70 mph."

"Great handling on twisty roads; fun to drive. Good acceleration, including when going uphill. Seems very powerful for a 4 cylinder engine."

"Good visibility & Handling"

"Very good acceleration and handling."

"Fun to drive. Very quick, corners well. Gas mileage could be better but a very nice vehicle."

"When driving, I am able to easily place the car exactly where I want it to be placed. Very powerful and easier to handle than any car I have owned. Makes me feel confident."

"acceleration is remarkable, given the small displacement of the engine. The paddle shifters work well and are used mostly for downhill engine braking. In automatic mode, the car is a little tardy on shifting, say on an uphill switchback. Manual mode solves this issue."

"good, very good a take off from 0 mph to 60 mph and to accelerate a high speed very quick as well as shifting from 2nd to 9th gear. bad, nothing so far."

"Very smooth with large number of gears. Drives like car not a truck. Handles well. Don't like the auto-shut off of engine at each stop... usually forget about it, but driving stop and go through NYC, I always turn it off. It's more annoying for the passengers who feel the on/off than the driver."

"Has power when needed and is very responsive in handling, with good control"

"Powerful acceleration and quick responsive sterring."

"The acceleration is excellent. I suspect this is due to the 9 speed transmission."

"Acceleration is jerky and hesitant"

"Impressive handling, variety of driving modes, good acceleration for a relatively small engine"

"The nimbleness and ease of driving is quite pleasurable. It is precise, quick, fast when I need it to be, all without being losing any comfort or control."

"The acceleration is very good for a 4 cylinder engine. The handling is excellent for an SUV type vehicle."

"Performance vs mileage is very good. Turbo kicks in smoothly and quickly for merging and passing"

"The car is very fast from 0-45. I know because when I am on Scottsdale city streets, I am the first one to hit the speed limit. It is so fast, that I dislike being behind other cars. While driving the Phoenix freeways, the car has excellent freeway merging speed."

"Just about perfect."

"The ride and handling are excellent and this auto is quietest ever owned. Seats feature heating and cooling and are very comfortable with firm support."

"My ears are super sensitive to wind and road noise, painfully so. This is the first auto I have ridden in that I don't have to wear ear plugs on urban high traction freeways to be comfortable, which is why I bought it! The seats are great for long road trips, better than any auto I have ridden in on long road trips!"

"The car seats are outstanding in comfort with many possible adjustments. Low noise level with a smooth ride."

"Very comfortable on long trips (over 200 miles)"

"This is a surprisingly quiet car."

"Very comfortable seating for longer drives"

"Long road trips in this vehicle are a pure joy. Goodby stiff and achy knees, thighs, etc. Love this car!"

"Ride could be more supple. Back seat should be more comfortable. Noise, however, is adequately suppressed."

"Very comfortable seats both front and back. Comfortable ride. Low noise levels."

"Seats are very comfortable- has lumbar support. Ride is smooth and noiseless"

"Multi positions on driver seat, very smooth ride on co fort mode or can be switched to sporty ride. Very little road noise."

"This vehicle is an excellent long distance tourer."

"The multiple adjustments for comfort and the memory buttons."

"positions well for comfort and has lumbar support"

"Could be softer."

"Exceptionally quiet interior while driving. Muliple seating options to suit each driver's seating and positioning preferences. Driving is responsive and accurate."

"good, the lumbar seats and way to mold to your body of the seats. bad, does not have any, so far."

"confident stance of the vehicle. Great feel and acceleration"

"Very comfortable seating, smooth, controlled ride"

"Comfortable seats, adjustable for other members of the family. Very quiet ride."

"Exceptional comfort and ride for an SUV type vehicle."

"Very quiet"

"Difficult getting comfortable seating position for a short person. Seat cannot be adjusted to make use of left leg rest."

"Excellent back support"

"A/C system MBZ has a major issue with the mold/vinegar smell coming from A/C system in most of their newer vehicles, this one included! They don’t have a drain system so it builds up mold in system and smells or even worst contaminates the air! Everything else about this car is great, except navigation."

"I have had problems with the seats in several previous cars, and even traded them in because of them. The GLC's seats are so good that they are actually therapeutic. After driving 2-3+ hours I actually feel better and my back pains go away. I also greatly appreciate the low overall noise level. It reduces stress and I can hear the full range of the sound system."

"I think it’s a very rough ride. I feel Every bump in road. Also don’t like the self seal tires that have to be replaced at 10000 mikes. Tires expensive and very short life span. Did not calculate replacing all tires 8 months before lease up"

"Seats are firm and I can sit in them for a long ride. Noise is low, but tire noise on a rough pavement is considerable. Ride is exceptional. Steering is precise and there is little sway or tendency to over or under steer."

"The seats and all the controls are very comfortable."

"Easy to enter the vehicle & seat is very supportive for daily driving"

"Comfortable car, nice seats, enjoyable ride; not as agile as the BMW."

"Very good: expandable lower drivers seat cushion. Low noise levels and comforable ride"

"Does not have optional LED headlights, no fog lights, A bit noisy, but extremely comfortable. Run flat tires suck, replaced after 20,000 miles."

"Wonderful touring car. Great for long trips. Very quiet and smooth on the road except original tires has become noisy after 18,000 miles."

"The GLC has overall been a great car, but if I could change one thing it would be to get rid of the run-flat tires. They compromise ride quality and transmit more impact noise than I find acceptable. When I purchase my next car run-flats will probably be a deal breaker."

"Excellent, comfortable, supportive front seats, hard ride in the back."

"It is a very comfortable car to get in and out of. The ride is very smooth but not floaty."

"The GLC is so comfortable and quiet. It is just a wonderful place to spend time."

"We purchased this vehicle to make long driving trips. The seats are firm but perfect for long trips. The sound deadening features of the vehicle make for a quiet ride in which you can appreciate the quality of the audio system in comfort regardless of outside conditions or travel speed."

"Seats are very comfortable especially since I am a big guy with long legs."

"I bought the vehicle for the excellent sound proofing of the most annoying sounds, because others make my ears ring. It has been so quiet my ears have healed and hardly ring anymore."

"Great ride, good leg room good handling"

"This has been a great experience (despite numerous but minor recalls). Drives and rides great. Excellent performance, smooth as silk ride, and good mileage. Looks good, has great utility, and tremendous safety and driver-assistance equipment."
