Mercedes-Benz

We're conscionable a fewer days distant from nan unveiling of nan astir important car Mercedes-Benz has travel retired pinch successful a agelong time: nan GLC pinch EQ Technology (which I will henceforth telephone nan GLC EV). But earlier nan Germans officially return nan covers disconnected nan compact crossover astatine nan Munich car show, we're getting a sneak peek astatine its interior. Three things jump retired astatine you immediately: A monolithic screen, much buttons, and a stunning magnitude of attraction to item for a mass-market, tech-focused car for illustration this.

Of course, nan existent pièce de résistance is nan 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen, nan largest seamless show fitted to a Mercedes-Benz to date. The institution says nan ginormous surface has complete 1,000 individual LEDs and features intelligent area dimming, which will let for simultaneous accommodation of 2 different show areas via sliders. This is meant to guarantee nan accusation you request is ever clear and accessible, and nan driver doesn't get excessively distracted pinch superfluous readouts. Mercedes is truthful proud of this tech that it's revenge a patent for it.

As you mightiness expect, astir of nan car's halfway functions will beryllium handled done this monolithic surface that runs pillar to pillar. It'll service arsenic nan gauge cluster, a halfway infotainment surface and a rider display. It's beautiful akin to what we first saw successful nan Mercedes CLA, but without seams betwixt nan individual displays. I'm judge it'll beryllium reasonably easy to navigate and speedy to respond.

Mercedes says nan surface tin show high-resolution ambient styles arsenic inheritance motifs that are meant to connection a wide scope of moods to nan folks successful nan car, "from calm to intense, cool to warm, and method to emotional." The colour of nan gauge cluster, power sheet and ambient lighting tin beryllium adjusted pinch these schemes.

We've only sewage a fewer photos to spell disconnected of, but from what I tin tell, this caller procreation of GLC will bring pinch it much buttons than erstwhile Mercedes-Benz models. We're capable to spot a statement of 7 buttons and a scroll knob (presumably for nan volume) connected nan halfway console betwixt 2 cup holders and a mates of wireless telephone charging pads. Haptic feedback haters will besides rejoice successful nan truth that scroll knobs person made their triumphant return to nan apical said of nan steering instrumentality successful spot of touch-sensitive controls. Overall, it looks for illustration a coagulated operation of some beingness and integer controls, but I'm judge it won't beryllium capable to please everybody.

Like each modern Mercedes-Benz models, nan GLC EV's interior is festooned pinch all of nan ambient lighting you could ever want that tin beryllium changed to 11 trillion different colors and moreover illuminate reddish aliases bluish erstwhile you move up nan ambiance control.

Attention to item besides seems to beryllium a large woody wrong nan caller GLC EV. Mercedes is employing a caller benignant of stitching, which is benignant of reminiscent of the shot mitt stitching you'd find connected Audi TTs successful nan early 2000s (just toned down). There's besides plentifulness of very beautiful metallic inlays successful nan acheronian wood trim and brightwork astir nan trim pieces and aerial vents that propose nan GLC EV is simply a overmuch much premium conveyance than its compact crossover roots would propose — conscionable look really elephantine nan azygous portion of wood is. 

Overall, nan GLC EV's interior looks for illustration a existent winner. Let's conscionable hold to spot if its exterior and capacity tin lucifer what this is bringing to nan table.
