    Mercedes-Benz sold over 70,000 GLC models last year making it the 3rd best-selling luxury vehicle in America, do you guys think this car will remain their top-seller or will another Benz model overtake it in the next couple years?

      Not necessarily. The lease customer can return it to any dealer they want to, though customers will typically return it to the selling dealer, or maybe another Mercedes dealer (since we're talking about it here). Dealer that takes the return usually has first right of refusal to buy it before it goes to dealer auction.

  • @aky19832001

    I was going to lease this. For those asking how much payments are on any lease in America. It goes like this. Take the msrp. Divide that 50 to 54% depending on deprecistion value which is determined by milage so for this example let's say 50%. Divide that value over your lease duration and that will give you your payments. This formula works for every car from hyundai to Mercedes. Its important to negotiate the initial msrp.

  • @benjaminkohl342

    I love the GLC but it's annoying how many options you have to get to get the drivers assistance package and how rare it is. That's the most important feature for me, but it's just too hard to find one for a reasonable price with it. Out of the 20 GLC's my local dealership has in stock, only two have them, priced at $59k and $63k where as the other GLC300's start from $45K

    • @OMGWTFLOLSMH

      Mercedes and most of the German manufacturers need to revise their strategies and put out 3 trim levels, with the top being the fully loaded model. It's going to be a nightmare buying one of these used, trying to find one with enough options in the right colour.

      I’ve always thought it must be really frustrating to find the right spec with all the things you want and none that you don’t at an MB dealer. The number of options is dizzying. After configuring a number of vehicles online, it seems that Audi has the simplest trim levels and options structure of the German brands.

      @@OMGWTFLOLSMH I agree. I think the only German manufacturer that does a good job with this is Audi. If you're buying a prestige trim, you're getting a car with almost everything. The rest comes in packages which are easy to look for. Unlike Mercedes or Porsche where everything is a la carte. BMW has shifted to packages as well. At least they're trying.

    I've been with the GLC 2017 since and had tried the 2020 also, it's the same. Suspension is the worst part on this car, it feels like a groceries cart whenever you drive on the slightest bad road (almost the same in the 2020) Transmission and throttle combo: is indeed super jerky when doing stop and go in either traffic jams or making quick stops.Just those 2 things are to the point that it's embarrassing to me whenever I have guests on board "my Mercedes" so I must be be extra careful about my driving to avoid those situations as much. Throttle is artificially slowed in an exaggerate way in comfort mode and very frustrating to me, I find it dangerous at times when you need to insert yourself in traffic from an intersection! this means you will never get the power you want when you need unless you almost floor the gas paddle and takes at least a good 2 secs. The sport mode is way better for that and I would keep it on at all times but 2 problems; 1) the RPM will raise by 1/2x1000more as long as sport mode is on 2) Even if you don't care about gas and pollution in sport you must enable back at every start of the engine. Sound system before 2020 is super bad! no bass, muffled sound no matter how you try to adjust it sound like ass, such insult at this price point, Kia as a way better sound system in my friend's sorento by far. Air suspension already leaking from visit to chalet, and no I have not used the car in any abusive way!! More very annoying things: after a while the center console cracks during driving as well as my driver's side door plastics. They did fixed it at the dealer by tightening the screws but it only lasted for a month! Then you also get the air-vent traps adjusting airflow inside the vents that started making noise every 20 seconds or so. For the 2020 I would also like to point out that they could have refreshed the outdated front grill design. I would also say that the paint is of a poor quality, not durable. the inner lower door steps will get rusty quickly. My recommandation: Don't buy! There are way better built and durable vehicles out there that will give you much better value for your $$ especially if you don't lease. And between the 2, as I also know BMWs, I believe the X3 is a much better car and experience all around.

But the real most terrible of thing with Benzs are the utterly bad - incompetent windshield wipers. All of them on all models old like new is a complete cluster fuck - I wrap my head around this problem I've had them changed 3X in 6 months ( think Canada with winters) it's driving me alright but mostly insane!!! The worst part is that I can't fit a real pair of wipers from an other source - it's an all exclusive MB thing so make sure you don't get a wiper problem on a road trip with no MB dealers around cause you'll be even more screwed!

      Because the operating concept is very very different. Mercedes actually designed theirs to be easy to use and intuitive. It doesn't work like a computer mouse but like a proper selector. In addition, they give options like being able to use the touchscreen as well as great voice commands and even the steering wheel buttons. The user interface is also much more modern and better designed to make use of a selector touch pad versus the stupid Lexus mouse type rubbish with its outdated interface.

      @Jack njones - I test drove the new RDX, and even having 270hp, it was still very sluggish. Probably because it's so heavy. I wasn't impressed with the infotainment system. With what I wanted, A Spec and tech pkg, $50k felt way too much for the car. I ended up getting a fairly loaded XC40 at $44k and utterly love it! Black with red leather.
      Genesis is a beautiful and strong company, not sure where your laughter is coming from. If its because you're thinking "it's a Hyundai", then your bias is stuck in the 90's and 00's and is irrelevant. The GV70 will be a much nicer car at a lower cost than any of it's rivals. Just like the GV80 and the upcoming next gen remodel of the G70 and G80.

At first I was wondering too why MB didn't have it as standard, but then I started to realize that if you're paying for an option as simple as that on a premium brand, you get what you're paying extra for. (Which is a way higher quality product). So if a Lexus pushbutton start is standard, it's made out of plastic, but if you get that feature on a MB, I know that that pushbutton start would be made out of aluminum and feel higher quality.

Currently lease a 2018 and can't wait for it to be up. Wasn't able to get the "one" I wanted so settled for second best. Looking forward for Genesis GV70 to come out. I think it'll be much nicer and the way they package things, I'm sure I'll have a better chance finding the "one" I want at a much better price as well. Great reviews by the way!

    Its the best seller because its a great SUV at a reasonable price. I have driven it as a loner when my car is getting serviced. The ride is very comfortable and well isolated. Its quiet, and has decent acceleration. Handling is impressive for a non sport model. The tech is good, accommodations are excellent, good cargo space too! Its simply a great complete package.

      Mercedes has a model life cycle of 7 years for all their cars. So after 4 years a facelift comes out to keep it fresh. Then after a further 3 years, they introduce an all new model. That only comes late in 2022 probably.

      Manufacturing wise the non luxury competition can do anything luxury brands can do. Stamping, intergrated bumpers, etc.

      I think it looks great. Styling is purely subjective. Some people think Lexus vehicles look great/modern, but I think they are all hideous, with the exception of the LC500.

    • @SimornM

      Yeah theres not much differentiation between their models. Just look at all their cars before the cla, all their sedans had that droopy rear end and now they're going for the slim taillights that go into the trunk lid. Then their SUVs they all have the same rectangular taillights with the small headlights ...idk they don't really look classic and elegant anymore

    That's the problem with all the German vehicles, everything is an option. The top trim of the Santa Fe comes fully loaded with ventilated front seats, the rear seats are even heated, and the side mirror camera when the turn signals are on. Not that the two are comparable class wise at all, but it's just sad that everything is an option on a car that starts near $45k. You're at $60k before you even blink.

    This is the biggest problem I have with MB and BMW, though MB is a lot worse. Every feature is a la carte, I don't understand why they can't group popular things like cooled seats and wireless charging into one group. To me it feels like nickel and diming. To others, people might say well, I can customize my car exactly how I want it. But the majority of MB buyers are not custom ordering cars, they are picking what the dealer has in stock. Not sure why they continue to still do this - very irritating.
