GLC Technical Feature Highlights

  • Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX): A completely revolutionary multimedia system featuring innovative technology based on Artificial Intelligence and an intuitive operating system. MBUX is pioneering a new level of in-car experience. The system can be operated by a new generation of Voice Control, the center touchscreen, a new Touchpad, and/or by the Touch Control Buttons on the steering wheel. The system has learning capabilities and intelligent Voice Control with Natural Language Understanding and a verbal cue of "Hey Mercedes."
    • Touchscreen Multimedia Display: Central to the comprehensive MBUX concept is a touchscreen display
  • Driver Assistance Systems: The GLC Coupe receives the latest in driver assistance technology including intelligent hands-off detection. The Driver Assistance Package includes:
    • Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC® is an adaptive cruise control system that is able to automatically adjust your set speed for traffic ahead
      • with Route-Based Speed Adaptation, the vehicle is able to reduce the speed in anticipatory mode by referencing map data ahead of curves, junctions, roundabouts, toll booths and exit roads
    • Active Steering Assist generates steering torque which helps the driver to stay in the center of the lane on straight roads and slight bends, taking its guidance from vehicles ahead and lane markings
      • with Active Emergency Stop Assist, which brakes the vehicle to a stop in a controlled manner when the system recognizes that the driver is distracted for a longer period or cannot intervene in vehicle control
      • and Active Lane Change Assist, which assists the driver in a convenient and cooperative manner when making lane changes
    • Active Brake Assist with Cross-Traffic Function is able to help the driver avoid impending collisions with vehicles ahead, even stationary or crossing vehicles and pedestrians, if the driver fails to take action quickly enough
    • Active Speed Limit Assist automatically adapts the vehicle's speed to identified speed limits in conjunction with the embedded navigation
    • Active Blind Spot Assist is able to provide the driver with a visual alert, plus an audible alarm when a turn indicator is activated, to warn the driver if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot area. It can also help avoid a collision by single-sided braking if a lane change is still attempted with an obstacle in the blind spot
    • Active Lane Keeping Assist is able to warn the driver by means of vibrations of the steering wheel when the vehicle is unintentionally drifting out of its lane. If the vehicle passes over a solid line, or a dashed line when opposing traffic is detected, this system can pull the vehicle back into its lane by applying the brakes on one side
    • PRE-SAFE® Sound omits a short interference signal if an imminent collision is detected, triggering a protective reflex in the human ear referred to as the "stapedius reflex," which can help reduce hearing loss in the event of an accident

Model Positioning

  • The GLC Coupe builds off the successful GLC SUV by skillfully and intricately combining the sportiness of a coupe with the functionality of an SUV. Innovative technologies like the revolutionary infotainment system MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience), intelligent driver assistance systems and a newly enhanced engine make the Coupe a paragon of sportiness, safety and efficiency.
