Mercedes-Benz India has launched the AMG GLC 43 4MATIC Coupe in India at a price tag of Rs 1.11 crore. Having made its global debut back in September last year, the new GLC 43 ditches its 3.0-litre bi-turbo, six-cylinder engine for a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder unit.

Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 4MATIC Coupe: exterior, interior design
Apart from the sloping roofline, the new AMG GLC 43 gets an AMG-specific grille, sportier front and rear bumpers, new alloy wheels that go up to 21-inches in size, AMG-specific side skirting and a prominent rear diffuser with quad exhausts – two on each side.
The interior is largely shared with the regular GLC, but it gets an AMG-spec steering wheel, sporty seats with Nappa leather with AMG branded pedals and floor mats, and illuminated door sills. There are also unique AMG graphics on the digital instrument cluster and the touchscreen infotainment system. It is equipped with a 710W, 15-speaker Burmester system, a 12.3-inch driver display and an 11.9-inch infotainment touchscreen, among other features.

The GLC 43 uses a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine with 48V mild-hybrid tech. This engine puts out 421hp and 500Nm for a 0 to 100kph sprint in 4.7 seconds, and the electronically limited top speed is 250kph. The engine is mated to a 9-speed automatic gearbox and sends power to all four wheels. It also has rear-wheel steering, high-performance brakes, speed-sensing steering and adjustable suspension dampers as standard.
The Mercedes GLC 43 4Matic Coupe rivals the BMW X3 M40i, which is priced at Rs 87.70 lakh.
