Merc stands on the top of customer service. Driving pleasure is too good makes u feel important and provides luxury. Performance is good, sunblinds could be electric for the rearview passenger. GLC is a low-maintenance car. But yes, the rear passenger may feel a little cramped on long routes.

Awesome car

Best car for me and my family enjoy drive in this car with so much power best car what more should I tell you just go and buy the car and get a ride the comfort and the power is awesome.
