JAKARTA - Mercedes-Benz is preparing to open a new chapter in the electrification of SUVs by introducing the electric GLC for the first time in the United States at the CES 2026 event.
The presence of this emission-free model is a strong signal of the German manufacturer's ambition to expand its electric SUV portfolio, without abandoning the internal combustion engine (ICE) line, which is still the backbone of sales in the US market.
The availability of this electric GLC was confirmed to start in the second half of 2026. Launching from Indianautoblog, Thursday, January 8, this car is built on an 800-volt electric architecture, which promises faster charging and better efficiency.
The performance is not to be trifled with, producing a peak power of 483 dk, while the target mileage is up to 713 kilometers in one charge and makes it one of the electric SUVs with the longest cruising range in its class. Entering the cabin, the electric GLC carries the latest MB.OS which is supported by artificial intelligence.
Consumers can choose the 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen, which is claimed to be the largest screen ever installed on a Mercedes-Benz car. This infotainment system also scored the world's first by integrating AI from Microsoft and Google, bringing voice control, navigation, and assistants in the car that are increasingly massive today.
Not only technology, Mercedes-Benz also highlights the aspect of sustainability by offering an independently certified vegan interior, which is said to be the first breakthrough in the automotive industry. Driving comfort is improved through intelligent air suspension, while safety features and driving convenience are strengthened by a series of MB.DRIVE driver assistance systems.
In conjunction with the debut of the electric GLC, Mercedes-Benz will also showcase the latest CLA at CES 2026. This model features streaming video inside the car through DTS AutoStage Video powered by TiVo. Through partnerships with Dolby, Xperia, and Nvidia, Mercedes-Benz continues to expand its digital ecosystem, reaffirming its focus on increasingly connected and software-driven vehicles.
