The Mercedes-Benz GLC and its Competition around Grandville

At Betten Imports, we like to show you the best we have to offer. Towards that goal, we've chosen some of the features of the Mercedes-Benz GLC that make it an excellent luxury SUV for drivers around Wyoming, MI.

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Versus the Audi Q5

• A lot of fantastic features in luxury SUVs are about ease of use. Take the GLC for example. When you sit down in the driver's seat, you can press a button to have it automatically remember your preferred configuration for seat position and mirror angle. You can even get this feature for the front passenger chair as well, but the Audi Q5 lacks these quality of life improvements.
• Both the Mercedes GLC and the Audi Q5 feature heated front seats and available ventilated front seats. How about the Allendale passengers in the rear? They're out of luck in the Q5, but the GLC offers available heated rear seats as well so they can stay warm in the cold Holland winters.

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Versus the BMW X5

• There's no denying that the BMW X5 is an excellent SUV, but at what cost? Quite a large one, actually, as its starting MSRP is about $15,000 more than that of the GLC and fails to offer anything impressive enough to make that worth it.
• One feature that the X5 doesn't offer that's vital to Grandville drivers who like to stay out late is ATTENTION ASSIST. Standard in the Mercedes GLC, this system monitors for symptoms of drowsiness in the driver and alerts them visually and audibly if it detects any.

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Versus the Lexus RX

• The RX may have a more powerful engine, but the result of that is worse gas mileage and slower acceleration. The GLC can go 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway, while the RX only gets 20 mpg and 27 mpg respectively. That mileage would be understandable if it was a little more spry, but it takes 7.7 seconds to go from 0-60 mph, and the GLC only takes 6.1 seconds.
• The Lexus RX and the Mercedes GLC both have great space for passengers, but when it comes to cargo, the RX can only get up to 32.7 cubic feet. The GLC has a much more respectable maximum 56.5 cubic feet of cargo space.
