The new Mercedes-Benz GLC 43 offers an average peak power of 310 kW and a peak torque of 500 Nm, allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds. The GLC 63 S, on the other hand, delivers a whopping 500kW of power and 1020Nm of torque to do the same sprint in just 3.5 seconds. Kia Seltos facelift launched in India.

However, the GLC 63 S has a plug-in hybrid system with a 150kW electric motor and a two-speed transmission on the rear axle, combined with an even larger turbocharger to deliver some notable figures.
