2020 Mercedes GLC Coupe Launch Price Rs 62.7 Lakhs

At an event in Bangalore, Mercedes Benz launched the 2020 GLC Coupe in India today

Mercedes has priced the GLC Coupe at a premium against the standard GLC SUV which was launched late last year. The entry-level variant of the GLC SUV is priced at Rs 53 lakhs while the top of the line version costs Rs 58 lakhs (ex-showroom). In comparison, the GLC Coupe SUV facelift is priced Rs 52.7 lakhs for the petrol variant and Rs 53.7 lakhs for the diesel variant. All prices are ex-sh.

The facelifted GLC Coupe is based upon the standard GLC (which we had tested a few months ago, check out the review here). The updated GLC Coupe had made its global debut around an year ago in March 2019. Interestingly, the GLC Coupe body type isn’t new for the Indian market. Since 2017, Mercedes has been selling the AMG GLC 43 in India, however it is for the first time that the Coupe will be available minus the AMG.

Both the versions come mated to a 9-speed 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission. Mercedes will also be offering All Wheel Drive as a standard feature which is highlighted by the ‘4MATIC’ tag.
