Why you should buy a Mercedes Benz GLC ?

The GLC is one of our favorite small luxury SUVs. It offers smooth and efficient power, a classy interior, and plenty of helpful technology features. The latest GLC has also gotten more expensive, however, and some other competing SUVs provide better value. Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class will cost about $14,421 for maintenance and repairs during its first 10 years of service. The service maintenance cost of the Mercedes-Benz GLC costs an approximate value of Rs 17,500 for 5 years. The first service after 10,000 kms and the second service after 20,000 kms is free of cost. Service cost of a car basically means the cost incurred in the regular maintenance of the car.
