GLC
The C class is being refreshed for next year (2019 Model Year). When the last generation C Class was refreshed for MY2012, the GLK followed with a refresh in MY2013. So to extrapolate, MY2020 should see a refresh.
However, things are moving quickly in the auto world these days and there has already been a preview of the updated interior by way of the introduction of the GLC F Cell. Also, Mercedes will be releasing an EQC (an all electric GLCish vehicle) around 2020 so that may move things up a bit as far as the GLC is concerned. In any case, the refresh should consist of a wider tablet screen, a fully digitized instrument panel, some front and rear bumper modifications and more advance driver assistance technology. The biggest change would be a new engine lineup.

Thank you, the lack of Android Auto on the big, hi-res screen is the biggest gripe for me. I know it's available with the small screen, only feels awkward to spend $60k + for a car that's somewhat technologically behind the competition. Will hold off for another year I guess..

Considering ALL the information you have been given is obscure internet "gossip news" - and frankly ALMOST ALL of that same info is incorrect - if you are looking for a excuse to put off your decision - I guess you have that

It is not incorrect information. Timelines that were not confirmed I noted in my comment. If you want to spout off, provide some evidence. In rereading my comments you will see that I was answering the forum member's question regarding what was likely to happen to the GLC in the coming years, and I employed previous updates as a template. All indications I have come across point to this timeline as being true. If you have other information, please enlighten us.
