Weclcome back to EV News Daily, and welcome to our new series where we go deep into one particular EV, called The Spec Sheet. And today it’s the turn of the Mercedes-Benz GLC with EQ Technology—a vehicle that represents a significant jump forward for Stuttgart's approach to electric mobility.

Unlike previous EQ models that carried distinct names and styling, this GLC shares its nameplate with the combustion-powered version while riding on an entirely different platform purpose-built for electric drive. 

This marks Mercedes' previously announced departure from the standalone EQ brand identity toward a unified approach where electric and internal combustion variants coexist under familiar model names.

Stay tuned to discover:

·       How Mercedes' new MB.EA platform architecture delivers both efficiency and performance

·       The technical innovations behind the GLC's 443-mile WLTP range capability

·       Why this model represents the centerpiece of Mercedes' largest product offensive in company history

The GLC holds particular significance as Mercedes-Benz's global best-selling model. By electrifying this cornerstone SUV, the company is making a clear statement about its electric future while maintaining design continuity that existing customers will instantly recognize. And more importantly for a brand which saw pushback from S-Class and E-Class buyers towards the change in direction with the EQS and EQE respectively, Mercedes-Benz will hope this is an easier sell to their fans.
