The GLC300 grew a couple of inches, and nearly all of it went to the boot.
Mercedes's tweaks to the 2023 GLC formula boost EPA-estimated highway economy to 31 mpg, 3 mpg more than the outgoing model. The GLC300's newfound electrification also sweetens the SUV's on-road demeanor. This stop-start is among the smoothest on the market, reviving the gas engine with nary a shudder. Under deceleration, it's difficult to notice when the engine shuts off for low-speed coasting.
The remaining parts of the Merc's driving experience would be best summed up as "sport-adjacent." The GLC's standard adaptive dampers keep things nice and smooth over mildly uneven parts of the roadway, and body motions are well controlled, but more dramatic humps and bumps transfer a good bit of motion inside.
Chuck the GLC into a corner and, sure, it'll lean more than a C-class, but it stays well sorted and makes a good case for taking the long way back from school drop-off. The four-banger sounds pretty good when you give it the beans too. It's a damn shame about that steering considering how well sorted the rest of this car is.If your commute has more traffic lights than curves, you're in luck, because now you can appreciate just how much better the GLC300's interior is.
