Unlike the cheaper GLA and GLB, which are based on a front-wheel-drive platform, the GLC uses a rear-drive platform that marks it as a more premium product. In the entry-level GLC 300's case, it's actually a rear-wheel-drive vehicle — Benz's 4MATIC AWD system will cost you extra.
All-wheel drive does take a bite out of the GLC 300's fuel economy, but the cost is reasonable and the acceleration remains the same, so it's a pretty good deal if AWD makes sense for your climate.
The GLC 43 uses a highly complex turbocharged four-cylinder engine with hybrid assist to achieve its eye-popping output numbers. If you ask us, we miss the days when the AMG variant of the GLC featured a twin-turbo V6 engine or even (in the GLC 63) a truly awesome twin-turbo V8.
