To switch driving modes in GLC: 1. Keep the vehicle in a started state; 2. Use the multifunction buttons on the steering wheel to locate the driving mode in the onboard computer; 3. Switch directly. Taking the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4764mm, width 1898mm, height 1642mm, wheelbase 2947mm, fuel tank capacity 66l, and curb weight 2315kg. The 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC is equipped with a 2.0l turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 197ps, maximum power of 145kw, maximum torque of 320nm, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

I have a habit when driving my Mercedes-Benz GLC, and switching driving modes is super practical. Normally, there's a driving mode icon on the center console touchscreen. Tap it, and you'll see options like Comfort, Sport, and Eco—just pick the one you want. If your model has a steering wheel dial, you can also quickly switch modes by turning it. I prefer using Comfort for city commuting—the power delivery is smooth, the suspension is soft, and the car feels stable even on bumpy roads. Sometimes, I switch to Sport mode on the highway—throttle response becomes sharper, the power feels more aggressive, and acceleration is thrilling, but remember to operate it only after the car is started for safety. There's also an Individual custom mode, where I can adjust steering weight or transmission response separately to suit my preferences. Switching isn’t hard; try it a few times while parked, and you’ll get the hang of it quickly—plus, it can extend component lifespan. Mastering this in the GLC takes driving enjoyment to the next level.

Switching GLC driving modes is super easy. There's a physical dial near the steering wheel—just turn it to select a mode or tap the icon on the central control screen. I often drive in Sport mode for quicker power bursts and a more thrilling engine sound during acceleration, making overtaking and cornering much more agile. Different modes affect suspension stiffness and transmission response, with Sport being ideal for spirited driving. Using Eco mode in the city saves a lot of fuel, making it economical and eco-friendly. Remember, you can only switch modes after the vehicle is started. I recommend getting familiar with quick shifts to enhance the experience. After driving for so long, mode selection turns an ordinary SUV into a fun ride, adapting confidently to various road conditions.

When I first drove the GLC, I didn't understand how to switch driving modes, but I quickly learned to operate it on the center touchscreen. Just tap the driving mode icon and choose between Comfort, Eco, or Sport. Comfort mode offers the smoothest ride with softer suspension and less noise for stable seating; Eco saves fuel and is ideal for traffic jams. Switching is simple—just try it a few times after starting the car to get the hang of it, safe and convenient. Experiment with different modes while driving to improve adaptability.
