Why buy an Approved Used Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé?
The Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupé is a mid-size luxury SUV that prioritises style and sportiness over outright practicality. It has been on sale in the UK since 2016, so there are plenty of used examples available to buy.
Based on the superbly-executed GLC SUV, the Coupé shares that car's powertrains with the 'GLC 220 d' being one of the most popular engine choices. This variant features a 2.1-litre diesel engine on pre-2019 cars, while more recent versions are fitted with a hearty 191bhp 2.0-litre engine. 242bhp GLC 300 d variants are also available, as are petrol and high performance GLC 43 and GLC 63 S AMG models.
Up front, the interior is largely identical to the SUV version. In the back, while leg room remains decent, headroom is compromised by the sloping roof line. The boot is smaller too, although at 470 litres it is still fairly large.
Running costs are in-line with other luxury SUV-coupé rivals like the BMW X4. Fuel economy is not too bad either, at 35 to 45mpg (depending on engine) but tyres and brakes will be more expensive than other more budget-oriented brands.
As a mid-sized Coupé SUV, the GLC Coupé is ideal for those that need a practical vehicle but still desire sharp styling. Furthermore, it offers a range of advanced technology and safety features, as well as impressive performance regardless of the chosen powertrain, making it a great choice for varied lifestyles.
Servicing and maintaining a GLC Coupé will typically be more expensive than other budget-oriented options, due to its premium nature. However, it is not unreasonable - specialist maintenance work can be carried out at your nearest Stratstone Mercedes-Benz retailer.
Much like the majority of Mercedes-Benz models, the GLC Coupé is a very reliable car, often scoring well on customer surveys and long-term tests. Keeping on top of scheduled servicing and maintenance can also help keep your used GLC Coupé in optimal working condition, so make sure to check the service history of any cars that appeal when buying.
Both cars are fairly similar, so which is better will depend on your lifestyle and personal preferences. The GLC Coupé is the more stylish of the two, with a sloping roofline that adds a more sporty look. The GLC SUV is the more practical of the two, with a more versatile shape that offers slightly more interior space. Both models feature very similar powertrain and on-board technology, and are both fantastic options for differing lifestyles.
