Don"t waste precious seconds gazing at the new Mercedes GLC trying to spot sweeping changes to the looks. There aren"t any. Fresh LED swooshes and a dab more chrome have been the order of the day for Merc"s rival to the BMW X3 and Porsche Macan. But as one of the less ugly family SUVs around, that"s fine. So, allow TG.com to point out the bits you need to know. First up, behind that beefier new grille, there"s a new family of engines. Want a petrol-powered GLC? Choose between a GLC 200 (2.0-litre, four-cylinder, 197bhp) and a GLC 300 (same size engine, uprated to 254bhp). Both of those get 48-volt mild-hybrid tech basically a starter motor generator providing better stop-start response and a 110lb ft boost of torque.
