The latest teasers reveal more details on the new-gen GLC that gets a major overhaul. The model has grown in proportions and will feature a redesigned front with new headlamps and grille, while the teaser reveals the new LED taillight setup, dual-tone alloy wheels, chrome door handles and rear bumper.
