MPG

Hello - I am curious what mpg and total miles per tank GLC owners are getting?

Thanks!

The online reviews that reference it all seem to say ~24 on average. I'm sure a few current owners can chime in and give their experience.

On my first week of ownership, did a trip from New York City to Vermont (about 600 miles roundtrip). I got 25.5 mpg, combination of a lot of highways and some mountain road, as well as some traffic getting out of NYC.

I just wish that it had a 21 gallon fuel capacity.

What is the fuel tank capacity?

On the list of standard features there is line entry that states, "larger fuel tank."

Our GL350 that we are trading in has a huge gas tank and we typically get about 550 miles+ on a tank. I guess the GLC will not come close to that. If the diesel GLC comes out next year will probably trade into that one. ☺
