Mercedes-Benz India drives in 2021 GLC with Mercedes Me Connect
Mercedes-Benz India on Wednesday introduced the updated 2021 GLC SUV priced from ₹57.40 lakh up to ₹63.15 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom India). The car has been introduced with Mercedes Me Connect and a slew of new features.
The 2021 GLC is the latest car in Mercedes' portfolio to be updated with its connected car tech which has made its way in most of the newly launched Mercedes products. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class has also received the same connected car tech earlier this month. What's to be noted is that the new GLC is independent of the 15 product launches announced by the carmaker for 2021.
