The 4.0-litre V8 biturbo returns published combined figures of 10.7-10.3 l/100 km under NEDC or higher WLTP values near 12 l/100 km. Real-world use with the powerful engine and all-wheel drive will vary with driving mode and load. A 66-litre tank is fitted.
Servicing follows the ASSYST PLUS system that calculates remaining distance or time based on actual use such as short trips or cold starts. Oil and filter changes plus checks form the core A/B services. Brake fluid is renewed every two years. Higher loads call for more frequent air filter and fluid attention.
The model inherits the GLC platform’s five-star Euro NCAP result with high adult occupant protection near 95 percent and solid child scores. Standard kit covers dual-stage front airbags, knee bag, side and window bags, ESP with curve and crosswind functions, Collision Prevention Assist Plus with autonomous partial braking, and PRE-SAFE. Optional Driving Assistance package adds further active systems.
Keeping the car centres on following the flexible service schedule at a qualified workshop and using approved fluids. Air suspension and high-performance brakes need regular inspection under hard use. The variable 4MATIC+ and limited-slip differential contribute to confident all-weather traction when maintained.
