These times are all about looks and this is certainly more of a looker since by the looks of it, rear passengers are going to have a crawl through the doors and carry handbags instead of suitcases as a compromise for the beautiful sloping roofline on this coupe. The rival to BMW X4 is the impractical version of the existing GLC or should we say the ideal 4th car in the garage.
Mechanically Mercedes Benz GLC Coupe Concept is expected to come with the same powertrain and specifications as its more sober sibling. Aa 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol mill with 241 horsepower and 370 Nm would make it ‘Delhi proof’ when brought to India. It will come with different engine options across the globe. For Europe GLC Coupe will be equipped with 2.1-litre diesel motor producing 170 PS for the 220 d or 204 PS for the 250 d. The American market will mostly get the same engine as India though it will be launched earlier than in India. Then, it will have powerful variants like the AMG version with 4.0-litre turbo engine for those who crave for gas guzzlers.
