As for powertrain options, the upcoming 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLC will have all-new units. The base model should be powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces significantly more power than the previous generation. As mentioned earlier, the company will use a 2.0-liter engine in some sort of hybrid configuration.
In addition, Mercedes recently indicated that all versions of the GLC, including the Mercedes-Benz AMG GLC63, will include some form of electrification. PHEV variants could include a larger battery capacity – from 8.7 to 13.5 kWh – and a new 7.5 kWh compact charger. This equates to doubling the electric range to about 30 miles. The current GLC PHEV model produces a combined 315 horsepower and 515 pound-feet of torque.
