Is the GLC compliant with China VI emission standards?

[DeBraxton]

glc is compliant with China VI emission standards. The GLC, also known as the Mercedes-Benz GLC, offers three powertrain options: a 1.8T, a 2.0T, and a 3.0-liter V6 engine. These engines are paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, delivering maximum output power of 135 kW, 155 kW, and 180 kW respectively, and peak torque of 300 Nm, 350 Nm, and 370 Nm. The dimensions of the Mercedes-Benz GLC are 4729 mm in length, 1890 mm in width, and 1602 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2873 mm. In terms of safety, the vehicle features multi-link independent suspension at both the front and rear, along with tire pressure monitoring, seatbelt reminder, brake force distribution, brake assist, and traction control.

I remember the China VI emission standards were implemented in phases, with many cities starting enforcement in July 2019. As a best-selling model, the Mercedes-Benz GLC had a particularly swift response from the manufacturer. Last year, I accompanied a friend to pick up a GLC260, and we specifically checked the environmental information—the car manufactured in 2021 clearly stated it met the China VI B standard. Nowadays, new cars are mostly China VI compliant, but you need to be cautious when buying used cars, especially pre-2018 inventory vehicles which might still be China V. Checking the emission standard is actually quite simple—just look at the vehicle conformity certificate or the environmental label, where it's clearly marked.

Speaking of this reminds me of the dilemma I faced when buying a car. The salesperson confidently guaranteed it was a China 6 compliant vehicle, and it turned out to be true. Nowadays, you don't need to worry about emission standards with the new GLC models—the entire lineup from the 300L to the coupe version meets China 6 standards. However, there are two points to note: some parallel-imported GLC43 models might comply with Euro standards but not necessarily China 6, and there's also a distinction between China 6A and China 6B across different model years. My advice is to check the nameplate on the door frame directly—vehicles manufactured after July 2020 definitely meet the strictest China 6B standard.

According to official information, all Beijing-Benz GLC models currently in production and on sale meet the China 6 emission standards. This model upgraded its emission system during its 2019 generation change, with even the low-power 2.0T version complying with requirements. Regional variations exist - for instance, Hainan required China 6B standards last year, but the manufacturer directly produces vehicles to the highest standards. During recent trade-ins for existing customers, I noticed the certificates of conformity for current 4S store vehicles clearly bear the China VI logo. Some car enthusiasts have reported irregular emission labeling on certain American-spec vehicles, so it's advisable to verify the environmental information sheet during purchase.
