New design alloy wheels would be there in the GLC facelift. Apart from that, no other major change is likely to be there in the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC. While in terms of design and features, updated GLC SUV will come with the above mentioned changes, powertrain of the car could also receive update.
On the powertrain front, new Mercedes-Benz GLC could come with a new 2.0-litre diesel engine that would be capable of churning out around 195 hp of peak power. However, it is not sure, if the new engine will be available in the Indian market-spec model as well. Mercedes has received pretty good response with GLC in domestic market and expect the updated car to arrive here sometime in 2019 only after the global launch. It is one of the desirable luxury SUVs currently on sale and comes priced between around Rs. 48 lakh and Rs. 52 lakh (ex-showroom).
