2 Answers
The switch for the low beam and high beam of the Mercedes-Benz GLC is located at the light control knob on the left side of the driver's seat. The vehicle's dimensions are: length 4764mm, width 1898mm, height 1642mm, with a wheelbase of 2973mm, a minimum ground clearance of 180mm, and a curb weight of 2315kg. The Mercedes-Benz GLC is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 258PS, a maximum power of 190kW at 6100rpm, and a maximum torque of 370Nm between 1800 to 4000rpm. It is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.
I've been driving a Mercedes-Benz GLC for several years, and the light control switch is conveniently located on the left stalk near the steering wheel. The end of the stalk can be rotated—twisting it turns the low beams on or off. Switching between high and low beams is done by pushing or pulling the stalk: push it forward for high beams and pull it back for low beams. When I first used it, I had to get used to the indicator lights on the dashboard—the blue light means the high beams are active. Mercedes' design prioritizes safety; for example, a quick push of the stalk on the highway can flash the high beams to alert the car ahead, avoiding prolonged use that could blind oncoming drivers. Some owners overlook manual control, but even though the smart system is great, manual operation is more reliable in foggy or complex road conditions. The GLC's lighting system is highly integrated, and the stalk has a non-slip texture to prevent accidental touches at night. Familiarity with this setup enhances driving safety, especially during long trips.
