As with most of the GLC Coupe prototypes, the sloping rear end has been covered up to keep the design under wraps. It's likely to look similar to the Mercedes GLC Coupe Concept that the company revealed at the Auto Shanghai 2015. For a better perspective, it will look like a mini-GLE Coupe with the regular GLC’s elements.
The interior is expected to be virtually identical to the Mercedes GLC. It will feature the same design as in the Mercedes GLC. It comes with a freestanding COMAND infotainment system, ARTICO leather seat upholstery with contrast stitching, a Head-Up display and optional Burmester audio system.
