2023 Mercedes GLC Six-Cylinder Model Planned, But Not The Exciting Kind

In the words of Bob Dylan, "the times they are a-changin'." It's been confirmed repeatedly the upcoming AMG C63 will lose half of its cylinders to go from a V8 to a hybrid four-pot with an electric turbo. All variations of the C-Class (W206) have been downsized to four-cylinder engines, including the yet-to-be-revealed C43.

You knew that already, right? However, while everyone is expecting the 2023 GLC to follow suit since it's basically the C-Class' crossover equivalent, that won't be entirely the case. Yes, it will largely adopt the same engines as the sedan and wagon duo, but with an interesting addition. Autocar has learned from the three-pointed star there will be another GLC 400d. It'll be the only variation of the midsize luxury SUV to offer six-cylinder power.
