Mercedes-Benz GLC 220d and GLC 300 Review : Sinewy Sophistication - Motoroids (blog)
The interiors, with its C-Class like architecture, evoke familiar feelings at first, but then you notice the finer details that make it feel more premium than its sedan sibling. Like the hand-made leather clad dashboard and door beltlines with contrast stitching, or the high-gloss “brown line structure” wood trim on the large, one-piece console panel water falling its way from the centre air vents to the armrest. You sit higher up than you do in the C-Class, which befits an SUV’s seating position, and get a commanding view of the road ahead. Finding your desired seating position is just a few taps on the ergonomically placed buttons on the door that electronically adjust the front seats with 4-way lumbar support. Space and comfort at the back, especially headroom, is significantly more than the C-Class, while 57 mm more rear leg room, along with 28 mm more rear shoulder room is now available as compared to the erstwhile GLK. The load capacity behind the rear bench is rated at 550 litres, with space increasing to a cavernous 1600 litres with the rear seats folded flat. In-cabin storage is taken care of by a spacious glove-box in the dashboard, two hidden cup holders in the water fall center console, and a massive, covered storage area between the front seats.
