Mercedes AMG GLC63: War Declared In The Mid-Sized SUV Faction
The Bavarian three-pointed star could not rest witnessing Macan and F-Pace sharing the cake and so counters with two models ready to satisfy those who do not intend to give up the convenience of an SUV with classic lines (GLC), and those who want a more modern look close to be a large coupe (GLC Coupe). What changes are the emotions that now you can experience at the wheel of the mid-size Mercedes SUV, as they are for the first time available in AMG version with the most generous engine of them all. The powerful twin turbo V8-cylinder is a great leap forward in respect to the engine that equips the step immediately before represented by the AMG GLC43 and from 469hp you arrive at 476hp, while the Coupe can also be optioned in S version grounding the like of 503hp and 699Nm of torque.
All coupled to permanent all-wheel drive and the MCT-9 speed automatic transmission, becoming the only SUV in this segment to have a 4-liter twin-turbo V8 and able to take from 0 to 100 in less than 4 seconds (3.8 seconds for the AMG GLC63 S Coupe). All this combined with the fantastic capabilities of comfort and entertainment for driver and passengers turns into reality the fact that there’s a new sheriff in town – a sheriff with a three-pointed star.
