What is the fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz GLC?
2 Answers
According to the fuel consumption data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the fuel consumption of the Mercedes-Benz GLC is 7.2-8.1L/100km. How to calculate car fuel consumption: Fill up the car's fuel tank completely and reset the car's odometer to zero. After driving for a period of time, refill the tank and note the amount of fuel added. Then, divide the amount of fuel added by the distance traveled to get the fuel consumption per kilometer. Reasons for high fuel consumption: The driver's skill level, improper gear shifting, and excessive braking during driving can artificially increase engine power loss. Additionally, frequent braking leads to more starts, as the fuel consumption rate is very high during starting. Driving at low temperatures: cars require the engine to operate at normal temperatures. If the car is driven without preheating after starting, the engine remains at a low temperature, resulting in poor fuel atomization and incomplete combustion.
I often drive a Mercedes-Benz GLC, and fuel consumption depends on the specific model and driving habits. For example, the GLC 200 typically consumes 11-13L/100km in the city and can drop to 8-9L on the highway; the GLC 300, with more power, consumes 12-14L in the city and 9-10L on the highway. As a 4MATIC owner, my daily commute averages around 11L. Many factors affect this: engine displacement, transmission (the 9-speed automatic is well-optimized), traffic congestion, etc. To save fuel, I use Eco mode, avoid sudden acceleration, and perform regular maintenance like oil changes. The GLC's fuel consumption is moderate among luxury SUVs—higher than some compact SUVs but offers comfort and safety. Official data for new cars shows 7-8L, but real-world usage often exceeds this. I recommend checking owner forums for actual reports and adjusting habits accordingly.
