Mercedes stretched the GLC for China. Dual motors, longer wheelbase, more range.
"Mercedes figured out what Chinese buyers actually value—rear legroom and EV range—before the marketing team could make it a whole thing."
— Revvly Take
Mercedes isn't shy about market-specific variants anymore. The GLC 350 L adds a significant wheelbase stretch and dual-motor setup for the Chinese market, with an extended-range battery that pushes claimed range into the 500+ km territory. It's the kind of pragmatic engineering that happens when you actually care about what a region wants instead of shipping the same car everywhere.
