The new GLC-Class crossover also has a sporty Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 version, sold in 2 configuration levels and 2 different body styles.
 |
| Before being renamed the GLC-Class, Mercedes' D-class luxury crossover, the GLK-Class, never had a high-performance AMG version. With the latest generation of the GLC, Mercedes has changed this with the all-new Mercedes-AMG GLC 63, which is sold in both standard and S versions and in both wagon and coupe body styles. |
 |
| Like other Mercedes-AMGs, the GLC 63 has been equipped with a "cooler" front bumper with large air intakes. Above the front bumper, the car uses a new vertical grille called Panamericana, which has previously only appeared on Mercedes-AMG GT supercars. |
 |
| On the sides, the biggest change to the GLC 63 AMG is the 19-inch wheels with 235/55 and 255/50 front/rear tires on the regular version. Meanwhile, the higher-end S version has 20-inch wheels with 265/45 and 295/40 tires. To fit the larger wheels, the car's wheel arches have been widened a bit. |
 |
| All versions of the new GLC 63 AMG are also equipped by Mercedes with a rear bumper with a diffuser and dual parallelogram exhausts typical of AMG at the back. Located above the rear windshield of the car is a small tailgate, completing the exterior changes of the GLC 63 AMG. |
 |
| Inside, the GLC 63 AMG's decorative trim uses carbon fiber, while the front seats have been replaced with sports seats and the dashboard has a new interface. The car's interior will be covered in MB-Tex artificial leather with DINAMICA velvet fabric, and customers will have to pay extra for genuine leather interiors. |
 |
| Like other Mercedes-AMG lines, including the AMG GT supercar, the GLC 63 AMG is also equipped with a 4.0l V8 twin-turbo engine with a capacity of 469 horsepower/650 Nm on the standard version and 503 horsepower/700 Nm on the GLC 63S version. Combined with the engine is a 9-speed AMG Speedshift gearbox taken from the Mercedes-AMG E63S. |
 |
| Engine power will be transmitted to all 4 wheels via the 4 MATIC drive system, helping the standard GLC 63 AMG take 4 seconds to reach 0-100 km/h and the 63S version only takes 3.8 seconds. All versions have a maximum speed limited to 250 km/h. The car's DYNAMIC SELECT steering system has up to 4 different modes, while the GLC 63 AMG Coupe versions also have an additional Race mode. |
 |
| In addition to the changes in the powertrain, Mercedes also equipped the GLC 63 AMG with a sports air suspension system with multi-chamber airbags and also has 3 different modes. In addition, the car's steering system has also been upgraded with 2 modes and the weight changes according to the speed. |
 |
| In the German market, the GLC 63 AMG version will have a starting price of 96,509 Euros (equivalent to 2.46 billion VND) and the price for the GLC 63 AMG Coupe version is 100,138 Euros (2.55 billion VND). Meanwhile, the 2 versions GLC 63S and GLC 63S Coupe are priced at 103,411 and 107,040 USD (equivalent to 2.63 and 2.73 billion VND) respectively. |
