Vehicle lowering in Sport mode
Hi everyone. Does your GLC63 SUV get lower to the ground when you activate the Sport drive program? My 2020 model does NOT, which contradicts the owner's manual (pp. 22 of the U.S. AMG GLC supplement, linked below). My 2017 GLC43 got lower in Sport mode.
In Sport+, my GLC63 drops around 3/8" (1 cm), as described in the owner's manual.
You can check your car's ride height by going to Performance > Vehicle in MBUX. Press the second from the right button on the bottom of the screen (it shows a symbol of a car driving uphill). The resulting screen has a vertical bar on the right with -1, 0 and +1. If the indicator shows -1, your car is in the low position.
Thanks!

2020 GLC 43
I've got a 2020 GLC 43 and while I have not looked at the lowering setting in MBUX as you describe, I have observed the vehicle lower itself in sport plus mode. See this video here at the start where it raises from its lowered position (sport plus) into its higher position in comfort and vice versa:
