Now, the company will launch the electric model based on the GLC in India on 8 October, 2020.

Feature highlights of the Mercedes-Benz EQC will include multi-beam LED headlamps, new alloy wheels, LED tail lights, MBUX connectivity, a dual-screen system with one screen each for the infotainment and the instrument console, new AC vents, paddle shifters for regen control, four drive modes, multi-zone climate control, leather upholstery, ambient lighting, and front seats with memory function.
