In a
flowing transition, Mercedes-Benz lands the next coupé: the Concept GLC Coupé
is a near-production-standard study that carries the successful GLE Coupé
formula over into a more compact segment.
The dynamically expressive show car
combines typical stylistic features of a coupé with the sensually pure design
idiom of coming SUV generations. This emotively appealing fusion is further
enriched with details that are strong in character. A twin-blade radiator grille,
powerdomes on the bonnet and a four-pipe exhaust system form an aesthetic
contrast to the harmonious, almost organic main body section. On the other
hand, elements from the rugged off-road world, such as enormous 21-inch tyres,
front and rear underbody protection, increased ground clearance and side
running boards, are indicative of the off-road performance potential of the
Concept GLC Coupé.
The same
successful blend of the multifunctional SUV and the emotively appealing coupé
world of Mercedes-Benz that was so enthusiastically welcomed with the GLE Coupé
is now repeated with the Concept GLC Coupé. However, the
near-production-standard show car inhabits a more compact segment, as
demonstrated by the external length of 4.73-metres and the 2.83-metre wheelbase.
These two dimensions, together with the striking and muscular main body
section, elongated greenhouse and large 21-inch wheels, provide an ideal basis
for the typical, almost dramatic proportions of the sportily youthful coupé
generation with the characteristic off-road touch.
