 After 8 months, and 9K miles, I’m pleased to share that the GLC300 does most things very well.   It is clearly a well-engineered machine that translates into an easy and satisfying driving experience.  The 2.0, 4 cylinder turbo provides plenty of scoot when needed yet is refined in daily use, although MPG falls a bit short of expectations.  While the ride is firmer with the standard suspension and 18” wheels than my personal preference, it certainly is not harsh, and holds the road well for more aggressive driving.   The interior is a nice place to spend time, and exudes simple elegance with very comfortable front seats, great visibility, and a quiet cabin.  The rear seats are very firm, and offer no adjustments, but with generous leg and head room, it is fine for occasional passengers.  The rear storage with the seats up is on the small side for its class, however there is a large under floor rear compartment that compensates, providing usable and convenient storage.   The misses with this vehicle for me relate to some of the technology.  The MB “infotainment/navigation” system feels quite dated, and is awkward to use, although the audio quality from the upgraded sound system is very good.  It is unimaginable that Apple Car Play and Android Auto are missing in a 2017 vehicle, yet it is not available.  The MB app offers limited functionality compared to the competition, and seems to have about a 50% success rate in connecting to the vehicle.   Finally, the optional “parktronic” parking assist system seldom successfully identifies an available parking space, and when it does, the system is difficult to use…save your money on this one.   On the positive side, the optional “distronic plus” cruise control with steering assist is wonderful in stop and go traffic for semi-autonomous driving, and is convenient on the open highway as well.  This is truly a game changer for those with frequent commutes in heavy traffic!  The other safety related technology features (brake hold, blind spot warning, lane keeping assist, emergency braking) all seem to work well.   This all said, the styling, performance, comfort and overall driving experience make the GLC a joy to own, and I look forward to driving it every day.
