Handcrafted AMG Engine
Inside the 2024 AMG GLC 43 Coupe is a groundbreaking 2.0L inline-4 turbo engine with hybrid assist. This isn't just any engine; it's the first "43" series engine handcrafted in the prestigious AMG "One man, one engine" tradition. Inspired by Formula 1® technology, this powertrain combines advanced fuel injection, friction reduction, and multi-level engine cooling to deliver an astonishing 416 hp and 369 lb.-ft. of torque. Despite its compact size, this engine produces V8-worthy power, ensuring a thrilling drive every time you get behind the wheel.
Racing-Inspired Innovations
The AMG GLC 43 Coupe features an electric exhaust-gas turbocharger derived from the race-winning Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1® team. This innovative technology uses a thin 48-volt electric motor to accelerate the compressor, maintaining boost pressure and enhancing engine response even at low RPMs. It means you get immediate power delivery, making your drive as responsive as it is exhilarating.
Adding to this technological prowess is the Hybrid Starter-Generator. This innovative component provides an additional 13 hp boost and supports the vehicle's 48-volt electrical system. It enhances efficiency through gliding, recovery, and stop/start, ensuring that your drive is powerful and eco-friendly.
Striking Design: The Soul of a Sports Coupe
The AMG GLC 43 Coupe is not just about performance; its design is equally impressive. Its exterior showcases the vehicle's athletic and dynamic nature. The AMG grille, twin-power-dome hood, and deep front apron exude power and agility. Its sculpted side sills and rear valance with a diffuser insert and four round tailpipes enhance its sporty stance. With its tensely arched roof and color-keyed fender flares, the AMG GLC 43 Coupe asserts a confident and stylish presence on the road.
High-Tech Interior with a Human Touch
Step inside, and you're greeted by a cabin designed for the modern driver. Its spacious interior combines high-tech features with luxurious materials, creating a multisensory experience. The slightly squared-off round vents punctuate the flowing dashboard, which is dominated by a large, portrait-style central multimedia touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. This digital cockpit offers customizable instrumentation, including AMG-specific styles like Supersport, which displays performance data such as a G-force meter and engine output.
Comfort and Convenience at Your Fingertips
The AMG GLC 43 Coupe equally focuses on performance and comfort. Its power front seats with memory ensure you find your perfect driving position, while heated front seats quickly warm you up on chilly mornings. The intuitive Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) takes in-car control to the next level. This intelligent system integrates digital displays, touch-sensitive controls, and voice recognition that learns your habits and preferences over time, allowing for a highly personalized driving experience.
