Recently, Mercedes-Benz has opened an interest registration section for the GLC EV on its official website.
This SUV, which applies the latest EQ Technology, was globally unveiled in September. This move signals that the launch of the Mercedes-Benz GLC EV in the Southeast Asian market is imminent.
Compared to its gasoline-powered counterpart, the Mercedes-Benz GLC EV boasts significantly larger dimensions, measuring 4,845 mm in length, 1,913 mm in width, and 1,644 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,972 mm.
Its overall design is instantly recognizable thanks to the illuminated matrix grille featuring 942 LED dots, creating a unique lighting effect upon startup.
The Digital Light headlamps incorporate three-pointed star-shaped daytime running lights, harmonizing with the rear LED taillights—a signature of Mercedes-Benz’s new design language. The large air intakes and sporty rear bumper ensure this electric SUV retains the robust character of the traditional GLC lineup.
Inside, the GLC EV impresses with its 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen, spanning nearly the entire width of the dashboard. It features an electronic gear selector behind the steering wheel, dual wireless charging pads, and premium white leather upholstery, exuding modernity and luxury.
In addition to the main cargo area with a standard capacity of 570 liters, the GLC EQ offers a 128-liter front storage compartment, ideal for flexible luggage arrangement. Folding the rear seats expands the total cargo volume to 1,740 liters.
Powering the GLC EV are two electric motors delivering a combined 489 horsepower and 808 Nm of torque, paired with a full-time all-wheel-drive system. This setup enables a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.3 seconds.
The 94 kWh battery pack provides a maximum range of 713 km on a single charge, one of the most impressive figures in the luxury electric SUV segment. Thanks to its 800V architecture, the vehicle supports rapid charging at 320-330 kW, allowing the battery to charge from 10% to 80% in just 22 minutes.
The early introduction of the GLC EV in Malaysia suggests its Vietnamese debut is also on the horizon. In Vietnam, the midsize SUV segment is fiercely competitive, with the new-generation BMW X3 and Audi Q5 already available. The arrival of the GLC EV will further intensify the luxury electric vehicle race, offering consumers more sustainable options.
