New Mercedes GLC images give hint of firm's future SUV design
Mercedes has released a look into its future design language with a teaser shot of the upcoming electric GLC SUV. Although details on the car are limited at this stage, the picture shows the car's new front end which features a chrome-framed radiator grille that also has a smoked-glass-look and integrated lighting. Gordon Wagener, chief design officer at Mercedes Group, said: 'Our new iconic grille is not just a new front for the GLC, it redefines the face of our brand. It is the perfect fusion of lasting design codes reinterpreted for the future, making our cars instantly recognisable.' Details of the car's interior will be revealed soon, however it will feature the firm's MBUX Hyperscreen that runs the width of the dashboard. It's a system which is already found on many current Mercedes cars. In terms of powertrains, no details have been revealed at this stage, but it's likely that the car will sit on the Mercedes' ' platform that includes 800-volt architecture, which should allow for ultra-rapid charging times from a DC plug. The car will also be rivalling the likes of the BMW IX3 and Audi Q4 e-tron when it goes on sale next year. The new electric GLC will make its world debut at this year's Munich Motor Show, which takes place from September 7 to September 14.

Electric Mercedes GLC to debut new glowing grille in September
The Mercedes‑Benz chrome grille, the iconic feature with a shiny central star, is ready to evolve. For more than 100 years the grille has exhibited the prestige and status of the German brand, and it enters a new age through reduction, clean lines and technology debuting on the new electric GLC to be shown on September 7 at the IAA Mobility show in Munich, Germany. It features a wide and chromed frame, smoked-glass-effect lattice structure and integrated contour lighting. An illuminated version is available as an option, featuring 942 backlit dots and integrated with surrounding contour. The company said the new iteration with hi-tech pixel graphic is optionally available with animation. 'Our new iconic grille is not only a new front for the GLC, it redefines the face of our brand. It is the perfect fusion of lasting design codes reinterpreted for the future, making our cars instantly recognisable,' said Gorden Wagener, chief design officer at Mercedes‑Benz Group. The new GLC with EQ technology is also the first Mercedes-Benz model in a completely new family of vehicles featuring the new in-house operating system with high-performance artificial intelligence designed to adapt to diverse needs and lifestyles. An all-new, seamless MBUX Hyperscreen is another new development in the electric GLC.
