Mercedes-Benz GLC-CLASS 2017
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The AMG GLC 43 goes like a rocket, rides astonishingly well and looks the business. It's a serious car, not like the fast SUVs before the SQ5 changed the game. Like the Audi, it's flying out the door all over the world and it's easy to see why. It's Porsche Macan quick, Porsche Macan capable, but a better car for you and your family and their things. And has fewer buttons.

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2500 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

Australian towing capacity for GLC 250d?
We asked Mercedes-Benz for an explanation and a spokesman told us that the GLC SUV tow rating has always been 2000kg, which is what is reflected in the company's technical documentation delivered with the car, and on the Australian website.
The overseas rating is 2500kg, which is what you may have seen on the German site.
The company doesn't adopt these numbers due to our local towing rules. As a result the towing rating for Australian-delivered cars is less.
