After giving us an amazing rendering of the Mercedes-Benz GLT, the new pickup of the three-pointed star brand, TopSpeed shared to us another one of their vehicle concept arts. This time, the subject is the upcoming Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe, which can be seen in the picture above.
It’s just amazing how these guys can breath life from a mere sketch released by Mercedes earlier. According to the source, they came up with this rendering by taking into consideration the design of the Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe in addition to the sketch of the GLC Coupe revealed by its automaker. Quoting their report, they just made a “shrunken version of the GLE Coupe”.
The article also estimated that the measurements of the GLC Coupe. It said it would likely be 183 inches long, 74 inches wide, and 63 inches tall. For short, it would be very much alike the BMW X4.
It should be noted that the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe will be competing with the X4. The source considered the Porsche Macan as another rival of the GLC Coupe too.
The standard version of the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe, the GLC300, will possibly carry a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Its output is expected to be around 241 hp. On the other hand, the GLC400 version, might be fitted with a 3.0-liter biturbo V6 engine with 329 hp.
A diesel variant, AMG Sport and a full-fledged AMG model will surely make it into production as well.
