Car nerd

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.

Best coupe suv in India

Awesome car with luxurious interior and its a rocket on road 0-100 in a flash and great driving dynamics , looks very sporty and no other suv/coupe comes closer in terms of power & look, BMW has done excellence once again.
