Trunk dimensions Mercedes-Benz GLC

The trunk of the Mercedes-Benz GLC 2020 SUV offers a volume of about 19.4 cu ft with the rear seats upright and up to 56.5 cu ft with the seats folded down. The rear bench is split 40:20:40, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage.

The interior is designed with high quality, featuring a practical loading edge that facilitates access. The trunk dimensions vary within the model range, with the shape generally described as rectangular and functional.

Practicality is supported by various storage compartments and an electric tailgate that eases access to the trunk.

Model Information

The Mercedes Benz GLC is a mid-size SUV that was first introduced in 2015. The latest series of the GLC offers a combination of modern design, advanced technology, and high driving comfort.

With a sporty exterior and an elegant interior, the GLC targets buyers who value style and functionality. The newest generation also offers a variety of powertrain options, including gasoline, diesel, and hybrid variants, catering to different customer needs.

Variants of the Same Series

The GLC is part of the Mercedes-Benz G series and has no direct variants like sedan or convertible. However, there are different trim levels, such as the GLC 300 and GLC 63, which differ in performance and equipment.

These models should not be confused with other Mercedes models like the C-Class, which includes sedans and wagons.

Yearly Differences

The first generation of the GLC was introduced in 2015, while the second generation came to market in 2022. During this time, there were significant changes in body dimensions, which also affect the trunk.

The latest generation is generally somewhat longer and wider, resulting in an improved interior feel and larger trunk volume. These changes are especially relevant for buyers who prioritize cargo space.

Direct Competition

In the same price range and size, the GLC competes with models like the BMW X3 and Audi Q5. The BMW X3 offers a trunk volume of about 19.4 cu ft, while the Audi Q5 provides slightly less cargo space at around 18.4 cu ft. These differences are minor but can be decisive for buyers who need to transport a lot of luggage.

More Affordable Alternatives

More affordable models with similar trunk dimensions are the Skoda Kodiaq and Hyundai Tucson. The Skoda Kodiaq offers a trunk volume of up to 25.4 cu ft, making it an attractive alternative.

The Hyundai Tucson has a volume of about 21.9 cu ft. Both models offer good value for money and are interesting for buyers looking for a spacious SUV without the premium brand price tag of Mercedes-Benz.

Trunk Volume

The Mercedes‑Benz GLC SUV (2019) offers a manufacturer-stated trunk volume of 19.4 cu ft. This is about 30.95% above the average car and accounts for roughly 7.6% of the estimated total vehicle volume. With the rear seats folded down, the volume up to the roof is 56.5 cu ft.

Important for practical use: In the plug-in hybrid version, the battery reduces the usable volume under the cover floor. Under the cover, only 11.7 cu ft remain; removing the cover and using the space up to the roof yields 17.3 cu ft.

When the rear seats are partially or fully folded down, depending on measurement method, volumes of up to 26.8 cu ft (up to window sill height) or up to 47.5 cu ft (completely behind the front seats) are achievable.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

The exterior dimensions are 183.5 in length, 74.4 in width, and 64.6 in height. Compared to an average passenger car, the GLC is about 3.9 in longer, 1.6 in wider, and 3.1 in taller.

Implications for everyday use and parking:

  • In standard parking spaces, the GLC is shorter and narrower: according to the fact sheet, it is 13.4 in shorter in length and 24 in narrower than a typical parking spot – this makes parking easier compared to significantly larger SUVs.
  • The increased vehicle height can be relevant in underground garages with low entrances or tight ramps.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

Practical features:

  • Loading edge approx. 30.7 in above the road – the loading edge is significantly higher than in many wagons, making heavy lifting more strenuous but offering good ground clearance/off-road capability.
  • The trunk lid opens electrically as standard and features a hands-free foot kick function; the opening height is high enough that even tall people hardly bump their heads and can be limited if needed.
  • The trunk floor and loading edge are largely level, which facilitates sideways removal of luggage.
  • Three-part rear seatback: with a button in the trunk, spring-loaded backs fold down creating a largely flat loading surface; raising the backs requires some effort and there is a risk of pinching outer seat belts.
  • Practical details: two trunk lights (left and on the lid), bag hooks, net compartments, and a small compartment under the loading floor (~0.4 cu ft) for charging cables. In plug-in variants, the cargo cover cannot be stored under the floor.
  • Volume examples for everyday scenarios: up to ten beverage crates, typical shopping trips with ample space; heavy or tall cargo benefits from roof-high storage space if seatbacks are folded down.

General Model Information

Familiarity and positioning: The GLC (2019) is Mercedes‑Benz's compact to mid-size SUV in the premium segment and is considered an important bestseller in this segment.

Special features and characteristics:

  • Standard comfort features like an electric tailgate with foot sensor and individual opening height limitation.
  • Plug-in hybrid variants offer additional electric driving but reduce trunk volume due to the battery under the floor.
  • Good everyday usability through variable interior and numerous fastening/storage options, though with the limitation of a high loading edge when loading heavy items.

Price-performance assessment: As a Mercedes product, the GLC is in the premium segment; it offers well-thought-out assistance and comfort functions as well as decent space and loading flexibility but demands corresponding prices compared to volume brands.

Important competitors: Audi Q5, BMW X3, Volvo XC60 – they offer similar size, comfort, and price positioning but differ in details such as loading floor height, trunk volume in hybrid versions, and equipment scope.
