2025 MERCEDES GLC 350E PHEV - 15 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLC 350e is presented as a top-tier plug-in hybrid, potentially the best available. The reviewer highlights its impressive 54-mile EPA estimated electric range, with real-world tests achieving nearly 75 miles. Key strengths include a refined and quiet driving experience, excellent ride quality thanks to standard rear air suspension, and a luxurious, opulent cabin with high-quality materials and impressive fit and finish. The new MBUX infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and 360-degree cameras are lauded. Downsides are minimal, with the primary drawback being the raised trunk floor due to the battery, slightly reducing cargo space compared to non-PHEV models. The absence of a physical volume knob and the hidden wireless charger are minor inconveniences. Overall, the reviewer is highly impressed, suggesting this PHEV variant might be the best GLC offered, excelling in quietness, refinement, and ride sophistication.
