Hard to find technical details on 2021 GLC 4matic
Two things I am trying to accomplish, as I finalize buying my GLC300. First, to understand what the specs are and learn about what the MB tech is for the GLC. Yes, I've watched all the marketing, but it gives us little detail. What I have gathered so far is fixed 45/55 torque split. Front/center/rear diffs are all open, and software controls via braking individual wheels.
Second I am trying to understand the ramifications of 4matic from a driver's enjoyment perspective. I get all the safety, peace of mind perspective stuff. But are you giving up "fun factor" for said safety.
Anyone that can provide comment or links or keywords to assist me in learning, I would say thank you. I look forward to coming back to the MBworld (pun intended I suppose) as I still miss my last rwd C320. Always described that car as small frame, big motor. It put a smile on my face without fail, drove it to its limits often in SoCal.
