Available in SUV and Coupe body styles, the GLC is offered with two different personalities. The more sensible variants rely on a 255-horsepower, four-cylinder engine or a plug-in hybrid system, but Canadian customers will likely be attracted to the AMG versions, which feature a 385-hp twin-turbo V6 or a 503-hp V8. For 2020, the GLC receives cosmetic enhancements, a longer list of standard features and a new MBUX infotainment system.
