AMG GLC 43 and GLC 63 S
Mix the substance of a Mercedes-Benz SUV with the style of a freshly emboldened coupe, and then infuse it with the pedigreed performance of AMG. The result? Poise and presence in bold proportions. And power served in two strengths: spicy or molten.
A race that knows no finish line.
In an old mill in 1967, two automotive engineers with a passion for motorsports began turning Mercedes-Benz sedans into winning racecars. Today, as the performance division of Mercedes-Benz, AMG continues to create victory on the track and desire on the streets of the world. Every Mercedes-AMG vehicle is the product of craftsmen, designers and engineers who live to test limits, and for a singular goal: Driving Performance.
Born to perform, developed to outperform
A Mercedes-AMG engine only starts with the state of the art. From there, everything from fuel pressure to exhaust routing is developed to quicken, heighten and intensify its response, and yours. Developed for AMG's racecars, patented NANOSLIDE cylinder walls cut friction, raising endurance and power.
Choose your power: enhanced or epic
With higher boost and lower friction, the fortified biturbo V6 in the GLC 43 puts out 385 hp, good for 0-100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds. A handcrafted biturbo V8 gives the GLC 63 S an earth-rumbling 503 hp, for 0-100 in a 3.8-second flash. [1]
More speeds, quicker shifts, and smoother moves
A quick-thinking paddle-shifted AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9-speed keeps you in charge of the GLC 43's 384 lb-ft of torque. In the GLC 63 S, the multiclutch AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9-speed is masterful at keeping you on top on top of its 516-lb-ft torque peak. Both setups offer multiple modes and can downshift multiple gears.
Power to the pavement, precision in the moment
AMG Performance 4MATIC turns torque into traction and agility. The GLC 43's 31:69 rear bias quickens takeoffs and clings to corners. Variable-torque 4MATIC+ in the GLC 63 S can send up to 100% of the engine's torque to the rear axle . [2]
A chassis that's not just tuned, it's tunable
Based on self-lowering, multimode AIR BODY CONTROL, the AMG Sport Suspension is just one of the performance parameters you can set up to your liking via AMG DYNAMIC SELECT. Its five driving programs also let you dial in the shifting, exhaust sound and more.
Track-tuned brakes, to stop you in your tracks
Subtantially sized brake discs are cast with their perforations in place, not drilled later, to better manage the stress of hard braking. Multipiston fixed front calipers apply their powerful force more evenly. Ceramic compound front brakes are a GLC 63 S option. [3]
Multiple modes, for all your driving moods
AMG DYNAMIC SELECT lets you alter the shifting behavior, throttle and steering feel, suspension damping and more via a console paddle. Drive modes range from Comfort to Slippery to Sport+, plus an Individual mode you can customize. The GLC 63 S adds a track-focused RACE mode. [4]
Fingertip close, clear at a glance
The available new AMG DRIVE UNIT puts key performance controls directly on the steering wheel. DYNAMIC SELECT modes and other features are easy to set on the fly, with color graphical displays integrated into each control.
Turn it up, or tone it down
The available AMG Performance Exhaust features internal flaps and multiple modes. So you can unleash a grin-inducing symphony of torque-rich rumble at the touch of a button. Or bring it down to a mellow growl to keep your neighbors happy.
A front-row seat for a command performance
Deeply bolstered sport seats, exclusive AMG gauges and performance readouts, and a thick flat-bottom steering wheel reward your every driving maneuver. True coupe luxury and design meet AMG personality and personalization, with a wide selection of rich finishes and racing-rooted upgrades.
Your personal point of contact
The new AMG Performance steering wheel includes Touch Control Buttons and comes trimmed in any of four finishes from Nappa leather to carbon fibre and DINAMICA microsuede. The available AMG DRIVE UNIT places performance controls right on the wheel.
A handful of 20s, and 21s too
Legendary for quality and style, AMG wheels are available in multiple designs for each AMG GLC SUV. Both models feature standard 20-inch wheels. Options include black finishes and 21-inch sizes, plus two forged wheels for the GLC 63 S.
Buffed muscle, for polished performance
The chiseled muscle of AMG bodywork further tones the GLC physique. Each model underscores its recontoured vertical-bar AMG grille with distinctive lower bodywork. Styling packages add accents in gloss black or carbon fibre, aero elements for the GLC 63 S, and an AMG Optics Package for the GLC 43.
