~$100,000
Engine: 2.0L inline-4 turbo (M139l) + rear-mounted electric motor (plug-in hybrid layout)
Torque: 1,020 Nm
0–100 km/h: ~3.5 s
In its latest and most radical form, the AMG GLC 63 S E Performance represents a seismic shift in how Mercedes-AMG defines compact SUV performance. Gone is the thunderous V8 of its predecessor; in its place, a compact but ferocious 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine—currently the most powerful series-production four-cylinder in the world—paired with a sophisticated rear-mounted electric motor. Together, they generate a combined 680 horsepower and over 1000 Nm of torque, launching this family SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds. The responsiveness is instantaneous, the acceleration addictive, and the integration of combustion and electric power seamless and deliberate.
At the heart of this transformation is AMG's performance hybrid architecture, derived from Formula 1 expertise. The electric motor delivers torque directly to the rear wheels, enabling pure-electric short-distance driving and torque fill during aggressive acceleration. Meanwhile, the AMG-specific suspension, adaptive damping, and rear-axle steering ensure that the GLC handles corners like a much lower, lighter sports coupe. It doesn’t just feel quick—it feels purpose-built for performance, with braking and cornering precision that rival many sedans. The AMG SOUND EXPERIENCE synthesizer even recreates the emotional intensity of combustion through cabin speakers, allowing the driver to remain immersed despite the hybrid silence.
This GLC is more than a fast SUV—it’s a declaration that AMG performance doesn’t require V8s to thrill. It harnesses cutting-edge electrification not to comply, but to dominate, offering a driving experience that’s emotionally charged, technically groundbreaking, and unmistakably AMG in character. It's a blueprint for the future of performance SUVs—and one that sacrifices nothing in the pursuit of evolution.
Body Styles
“GLC” is short for Geländewagen (off-road) + “C” (referring to the C-Class base platform). This positions it as the luxury compact SUV in Mercedes’ range — above the GLA/GLB and below the GLE.
The GLC has evolved from a comfortable, family-friendly SUV into a technologically advanced, electrified luxury vehicle, capable of everything from daily commuting to high-performance AMG thrills — and even zero-emission driving in its latest PHEV versions.

Model Name Meaning (Languages)
Exterior paints span classics like Polar White, Obsidian Black, Mojave Silver, Selenite Grey, and Graphite Grey, to more expressive hues like MANUFAKTUR Alpine Grey, Spectral Blue, and Patagonia Red. Matte finishes and two-tone options are available on AMG variants. Interior trims have evolved from MB-Tex and ARTICO leather to rich Nappa hides, wood, carbon fiber, and gloss black accents. Color schemes include Saddle Brown, Cranberry Red, AMG Black/Red, and new ambient-light-infused surfaces via the “MBUX Interaction Bar” (from 2023). Wheels range from 18” twin-spoke alloys to 21” forged AMG wheels, in polished, matte black, or multi-spoke finishes. AMG trims include quad exhausts, rear diffusers, and sport brakes with optional colored calipers.
Body & Interior Colors and Rims
The GLC-Class offered a refined color palette including Polar White, Obsidian Black, Mojave Silver, Brilliant Blue, Iridium Silver, and Selenite Grey. Later models introduced designo options like Cardinal Red and Diamond White Metallic.
Inside, the GLC was available with MB-Tex or genuine leather in Black, Saddle Brown, Silk Beige, or Cranberry Red (Coupe only), and trim choices ranged from Natural Grain Walnut or Ash Wood to Aluminum with linear grain. Sport packages added flat-bottom steering wheels, AMG-style pedals, and contrast stitching. Ambient LED lighting and ARTICO dash covering enhanced the premium ambiance.
Wheels ranged from 18" five-spoke alloys on base models to 20" multispoke or twin-spoke AMG designs on higher trims and Coupe variants.
