Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • Mercedes-Benz GLC200 and GLC300: Are the Australian engines mild-hybrids?

    You’ve hit the nail on the head Alan. The 48-volt mild-hybrids weren’t taken up by M-B Australia, purely because the plug-in hybrid GLC300e will have a bigger battery than before (for more range) and is a better fit with where the brand is going in this country. Watch out for the plug-in GLC in showrooms in the second quarter of this year.

  • What's the towing capacity of a Mercedes GLC with a 100kg ball down load?

    All Mercedes vehicles are tested in Europe and issued Type Approval certificates for each regulation. The relevant Type Approval certificate for GLC states that the maximum download is 100 kg.  The masses and capacities in this certificate are used for the Australian certification to GCM, towing capacity, dimensions, etc. Without local testing facilities or engineering department, the company must use the European figures, and cannot rerate vehicles locally.

  • Australian towing capacity for GLC 250d?

    We asked Mercedes-Benz for an explanation and a spokesman told us that the GLC SUV tow rating has always been 2000kg, which is what is reflected in the company's technical documentation delivered with the car, and on the Australian website.

    The overseas rating is 2500kg, which is what you may have seen on the German site.

    The company doesn't adopt these numbers due to our local towing rules. As a result the towing rating for Australian-delivered cars is less.

  • Best towing equipment for a GLC?

    Start by asking your Mercedes-Benz dealer for their assistance. Explain to them that you want to tow a caravan and that the factory towbar is not suitable. If they cannot help seek the help of towbar companies, such as Hayman-Reece. If might be a case of modifying an existing towbar to suit.
