EXCEEDINGLY DISAPPOINTING

Unless you have your heart set on a vehicle with the MB name, you should look elsewhere for comparable or better technology and fuel economy at a much lower price. Touchscreen is difficult and finnicky to operate. Plastic used on various external components such as side mirror housings, brake lights, etc seems very thin and flimsy. Fuel economy is disappointing. Brakes often squeal when wet. Lacking practical feature of hands-free liftgate as a standard feature. Very sorry that mine didn't come with that from factory; told could not be installed aftermarket; only would have cost $100 from factory; yet they charge $500 for a superfluous lighted MB front grill star insignia! Vehicle is more show than substance. Vehicle is being leased. After only 4 months, can't wait for lease to end!

Surprising handling

First off, this is a small car. Not tiny, probably not good for a family of 4, but good for 2. Very adjustable seats, but not as comfortable as my Murano. Pretty quiet for a 4-banger. The biggest surprise was the handling, this thing really squats down in the corners and gives you a really confident feeling. A bit cramped up front, it has good cupholders but when they're in use there's no room for phones. Only one USB. Nearly worthless touchpad, but there are plenty of other ways to control the vehicle. The voice control system works pretty well.

I test drove it yesterday. When I accelerated up a ramp to 80 mph then let go of the gas to coast, weird why it took a while before the rpm dropped. Hard acceleration 0-30 mph but it couldn't figure out which gear to be in. Turbo lag under hard acceleration.

It’s been a week and I’m enjoying my new GLC300. Great technology, sleek look and features.
