2022 GLC 43 AMG SUV
Based on my '22 SUV43

HUD, Dynamic Driver Assist, smart headlights (forgot the term), full MBUX package, heated steering wheel (if you live in the snow country), heated and cooled (ventilated seats), black leather trim, black wood paneling and red stitching and seat belts ;-). No high performance exhaust if you drive longer distances...

I have a 2012 Jeep Overland...and I have a 2018 Mercedes GLC43. While I love the Mercedes GLC43, there are things that an older Jeep can do that the Mercedes doesn't or just doesn't have as options. My Jeep has adaptive Cruise Control, heated AND vented seats, heated steering wheel, automatic lowering when parking, *BOTH* outside mirrors dip when backing, auto highbeams, remote start and a touch screen. The GLC43, out of that list, only has heated seats and only the passenger outside mirror dips when backing...And while the remote start is available on the GLC43, it's only available through the app that is subscription based and will cost $200/year and the vehicle needs to be within cell coverage. All the others are options that I could have added if I bought the car new. And there's ONE thing that I wish Mercedes did that the Jeep does. The Jeep comes with 2 key fobs. There are also two personalized settings for the Jeep. You can program each fob for each of the personalized settings. So if the Jeep sees the wife's fob approaching the vehicle, it adjusts EVERYTHING according to her desires...from seats, mirrors to steering wheel and entertainment center preferences. If I approach the Jeep with MY fob, everything adjusts to me....Mercedes doesnt' do this...and I wish it did.

I must have features that either came with sport seats or trim packages because I have everything your jeep has just wasn't aware I had ordered it that way so assumed it came standard, front seats are heated and cooled back are only heated, I can set both mirrors or only one mirror to dip steering wheel is heated and I have distronic adaptive CC. my remote start does work thru the app but I do not pay extra per year for it yet. and this definitely has a touch screen. I think maybe because your suv is from 2018 there are things that now come with current body style glc's that did not in your year.
