Mercedes GLC EV: Powertrain And Performance

Mercedes GLC EV:The Hyperscreen Experience
The highlight of the interior is the 39.1-inch Hyperscreen, a single display that gracefully arches from pillar to pillar and thus forms a considerable departure from the multi-display setup of previous models. More than 1,000 LEDs with “intelligent zone dimming” allow the car to dim infotainment areas separately from crucial driver information so that it’s safer to view while driving.Also Read: Yamaha R15 V4 To Bajaj Pulsar RS200: How Much These Sports Bikes May Cost After GST Cut?
Mercedes GLC EV: Design, Space, And Features
Mercedes brings an electric GLC to the EQ lineup with the classic silhouette preserved but dramatic new details added at the front of the car with a grille that is, in fact, its light show illuminated by 942 tiny LEDs. Inside the headlights, star patterned DRLs further enhance the look; rear ends display a very slim lighting bar carrying similar motifs recalling CLA EV. A very subtle roof spoiler seamlessly integrated so optimised flow helps achieve a drag coefficient of just 0.26. Standard wheels are already pretty big at 20 inches but you can go even bigger with 21-inch alloy wheels for an even more commanding look.The GLC EV rides on a stretched wheelbase—95 mm longer than the ICE GLC—boosting interior and cargo space. It introduces a fully illuminated grille with 942 LEDs and offers tech like ambient lighting, wireless charging, and an S-Class-style air suspension as optional extras. You can also spot physical controls on the steering wheel and the console. Other cabin highlights include a digital instrument cluster, Artico/Nappa leather upholstery, and carbon fibre touches.
