Advantages of the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC

Even though the GLC gives you more power and a faster acceleration time, the Macan S does have a faster track speed. Even if you go with the 21-inch summer tires of the AMG® GLC 43, that will still only get you 155 mph, which is just a bit lower than the 157 mph of the Macan S. Even though power is important in a luxury SUV, there’s still the fact that you’re looking for an SUV as opposed to a coupe or sedan. So, how much can you fit in the GLC? You’ll have a max cargo space of 56.9 cubic feet when all the seats are folded down. This is 4 cu. ft. more than what the Macan S offers.
