What should I look for when buying a used Mercedes-Benz GLC?

Key things to evaluate:

• Fuel efficiency: In Canada, the Mercedes 4Matic all-wheel drive (AWD) system is standard on all GLC models. The foundation of the entry-level models is the brand’s 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine situated longitudinally under the hood, and a nine-speed automatic transmission. While it’s no firecracker like in its sibling the Mercedes-AMG GLC 43, this turbo-four produces 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque in the 300, whereas the 350e’s output is a tad lower at 201 hp and 236 lb-ft. These specs might not seem like much upon first glance, especially considering the GLC’s curb weight hovers around 1,900 kilograms (4,200 pounds). However, the 300 receives a 48-volt mild-hybrid system that chips in an additional 23 hp and 148 lb-ft of torque under certain situations — such as pulling away from a stop light with haste — which enables a 6.2 second 0-100 km/h time. At the core of the 350e’s more substantial hybrid system is a 23.3-kilowatt-hour battery pack and single electric motor that contributes an extra 134 hp and 235 lb-ft of torque. Combined output is a very healthy 313 hp and 406 lb-ft. But the 350e has a slower 6.7-second 0-to-100 km/h time as it carries roughly an extra 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds). Power always felt just right when driving around town and on the highway. The GLC may take a little over six seconds to hit 100 km/h in either powertrain configuration, but our 350e felt noticeably more expeditious where it counts: it quickly got up to 60 km/h on city streets, and passed cars with ease on the highway. This is thanks to the substantial added torque provided by either trim’s hybridization. Just right encapsulates the GLC’s ride quality, steering, and overall handling, too. It soaked up all kinds of road imperfections quite well — despite our tester’s massive 20-inch wheels — and felt overall solid, with no floatiness or vagueness. Steering was very light and manageable at low speeds, and it gained reassuring weight once cruising along. Fast movements on the highway and atop winding mountain roads were followed by great overall vehicle composure, indicating that the GLC would serve well for both road trips and reaching distant campsites. For a high-sitting, non-performance SUV, body control was very good, too, and when mixed with its low-end torque it was fun to drive in the twisties. Braking performance was perfectly adequate in any scenario, as was our 350e’s use of regenerative braking. Its intensity can be altered via the steering wheel’s paddles. We typically kept it on its most intense setting to prolong its impressive 87-kilometre electric range as much we could. When in Hybrid mode, it prioritized electricity over internal combustion, and there was even a detent in the gas pedal as easy reference for when the engine would fire up and help out. We liked this a lot. Electric-only was generally adequate, but for steep hills or especially spirited highway merges, we pushed past the detent to ensure we had the whole 313 hp and 406 lb-ft at our disposal.
• Infotainment: As part of the latest third-generation suite of the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system, steering wheel, climate control, and infotainment controls are almost all haptic, the exception being a couple of actual, pressable buttons. Despite our MBUX frustrations at times, we liked that wireless Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth connected quickly and seamlessly. Android Auto is also standard, but we did not test it. Screen resolution was quite good, and we got a kick out of its deep ambient lighting customizability. The latter really added to late night drives with a relaxing ambient/synth soundtrack playing through the GLC’s excellent stereo. A top-notch Burmester 3D surround sound system was included in our tester’s $3,700 Pinnacle Trim.
• Safety package: The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLC comes standard with a few types of advanced safety features, including blind-spot monitoring, active parking assistance, automatic high beams, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and active braking assistance. Our tester was also equipped with the much more extensive $2,500 Driver Assistance Package, which included adaptive cruise control and steering assist with stop-and-go capability, plus lane-change assist with automatic lane change, lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking, evasive maneuvering, and speed limit assist. All of these worked in a smooth and harmonious manner. Automatic emergency braking wasn’t too overzealous, and adaptive cruise control was in no way awkward. Then, combined with steering assist, the latter made for a breezy, easy-going crawl through stop-and-go traffic.
