Introducing the 2024 Mercedes AMG GLC 43, a beastly crossover that packs a punch with nearly 420 horsepower and a sprint from 0 to 60 in under 5 seconds. This high-performance version of the GLC series comes at a relatively reasonable starting price of around $66,000, making it a tempting option for those seeking power without breaking the bank. Doug DeMuro takes us through a detailed review of the AMG GLC 43, showcasing its impressive 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that churns out a whopping 416 horsepower - a remarkable feat for a turbo 4-cylinder.
But wait, there's more to this AMG GLC lineup. The top-of-the-line GLC 63 model takes things up a notch with an additional electric motor, pushing the power output to a mind-boggling 671 horsepower and a jaw-dropping 0 to 60 time in the 2-second range. While the 63 model may steal the spotlight with its sheer power, the GLC 43 offers a compelling high-performance alternative that doesn't skimp on speed and luxury. Mercedes-Benz has strategically positioned the GLC 43 as a rational choice for performance enthusiasts, evident in the subtle yet distinctive AMG branding throughout the vehicle.
Inside the AMG GLC 43, the sporty touches continue with AMG badging, red stitching, and bolstered sport seats that scream performance. The infotainment system impresses with its responsiveness and intuitive interface, complemented by a high-quality camera system that aids in parking and maneuvering. The interior controls, while mostly straightforward, feature some quirky elements like a sunroof control slider and passenger-side volume slider. Overall, the AMG GLC 43 strikes a balance between power, luxury, and practicality, making it a compelling option in the high-performance crossover segment.
