Pros & cons

Mercedes-Benz GLC 63 AMG

Very quick: 0–100 km/h in 3.8 s and 280 km/h top speed.
V8 biturbo punch (476 hp, 650 Nm) for confident overtakes and highway cruising.
Five seats and a 550 L trunk support family use and longer trips.
Strong safety ranking signal alongside its performance focus.
High combined fuel use at 12.3 L/100 km if you commute heavily.
Premium price of 73,800 won’t suit budget-focused buyers.
Only five seats; no third row for larger families.
Weak winter-driving signal suggests it’s not the best pick for frequent snow and ice.

Spacious five-seat cabin and 515 L trunk support family travel.
335 hp and 450 Nm deliver relaxed cruising performance.
Combined 8.5 L/100 km is efficient for its class for a large gasoline saloon.
