Mercedes Unveils All‑Electric GLC on New MB.EA Platform With 443‑Mile WLTP Range

The reveal marks Mercedes’ shift to a dedicated MB.EA architecture built for long‑range, ultra‑fast charging.

Overview

  • Two versions launch first: the single‑motor rear‑drive GLC 300+ with roughly 369–374 bhp and the dual‑motor GLC 400 4MATIC with about 483–489 bhp.
  • A 94 kWh usable battery on an 800‑volt system supports up to 330 kW DC fast charging, with 10–80% in about 24 minutes and roughly 188 miles (303 km) added in 10 minutes.
  • Mercedes quotes up to 713 km (443 miles) WLTP range, with U.S. EPA ratings and pricing to be confirmed closer to launch.
  • Cabin tech centers on an optional 39.1‑inch MBUX Hyperscreen running the AI‑enabled MB.OS, and the SUV supports bidirectional charging for V2H and V2G use.
  • Packaging and utility grow with a longer wheelbase, a 570‑liter boot expandable to 1,740 liters plus a 128‑liter frunk, up to 2.4‑tonne towing, and available air suspension and rear‑axle steering.
