![]() Just like the standard cabin of the AMG Line and AMG Line Premium cars, the top-dog AMG Line Premium Plus has an all-black interior – the big change here being that the upholstery is now real leather from cows, rather than the man-made Artico stuff of the other 2 specifications. BlackĬost: No cost (standard interior for AMG Line Premium Plus cars) The main difference between this and the Neva Grey choice is that for this option, the seats retain some black sections – for the side bolsters of the backs and the bases, and for the head restraints too – so they are not Sienna Brown all over, whereas the Neva Grey cabin has entirely grey chairs. Artico Two-Tone Sienna Brown/BlackĪs above, only here the Artico upholstery, the front central armrest and the door-card centres are now finished in Sienna Brown. Perhaps the best news is that this alternative to an all-black interior costs nothing for owners to upgrade to it. This is the lightest cabin available to a GLC owner and Neva Grey is not offered at all on the high-ranking AMG Line Premium Plus cars. This clothes the entire seats as part of the two-tone option, which makes it slightly different to the Sienna Brown/Black alternative below (which keeps some black leather on the bolsters of the chairs). The first option for the 2 lower specs of Mercedes GLC is to switch the seats, the central armrest between the front chairs and the centres of the door cards to Neva Grey Artico man-made leather. Artico Two-Tone Neva Grey/BlackĬost: No cost (free optional interior for AMG Line and AMG Line Premium cars) All models have 64-colour ambient lighting inside, but whereas the AMG Line only has 3 zones of dimming, both the AMG Line Premium and the AMG Line Premium Plus have 4 dimming zones and more dynamic LED lighting around various features in the cabin. So the ‘basic’ interior for a Mercedes GLC in either AMG Line or AMG Line Premium trim is Artico black man-made leather upholstery, front sports seats with a Comfort Package, a black Nappa leather multifunction Sports steering wheel with paddle shifts, metal-structure dashboard trim and a black roof headlining. For the top-grade AMG Line Premium Plus, it gets true cow hide leather and again comes in 3 colours, but these are a slightly different array than the Artico trims. You can then choose to have that in 1 of 3 finishes. Of the 3 specifications available for the SUV, the lower 2 – entry-level AMG Line and mid-grade AMG Line Premium – have man-made leather which Mercedes calls ‘Artico’. There’s a very simple split for the Mercedes GLC interiors. Interior Artico BlackĬost: No cost (standard interior for AMG Line and AMG Line Premium cars) It will also continue to draw attention even when it is somewhat dirty, so Hyacinth Red is a great all-round finish if you’re going to treat yourself with the most expensive paint option come ordering time. Hyacinth is a warm, spicy red that beautifully accentuates both the silver and black exterior detailing that you’ll find on the GLC’s body. The £925 fee for a Manufaktur finish makes far more sense on the GLC if you go for Hyacinth Red, because this is the only red available in the 10-strong, maypalette and it is, in our opinion, possibly the nicest colour available for the Mercedes SUV – aside from Spectral Blue, maybe. These are normally the most expensive and rarest of paint options, and are not offered on many new car models. Matte = uses special ‘flattening’ agents in the paint/layering make-up to give the car a non-reflective appearance, and sometimes an unusual texture too. They’re normally as expensive as or pricier than metallic paints. These not only reflect light but refract it too, giving one colour different appearances in different levels of light. Pearlescent/Mica = as above, only instead of metal, ceramic crystals (known as ‘mica’) are added to the paint. Metallic finishes usually cost more than solid paints. Metallic = same application process as above but the paint now has powdered metal mixed into it, which reflects more light to give the car a shinier appearance. Solid paints aren’t particularly shiny and are normally the only standard/no-cost colours offered by manufacturers. Usually comprises 3 coats, these being a primer, then the paint, then a clear, protective lacquer. Solid = a simple body colour with no additives in the paint. Alongside the exterior finishes, we also outline the interior colours that Mercedes provides to go with these paint choices. There are 10 main paint options for the GLC range, comprising 1 solid paint and then 9 metallic paints – two of which are more prestigious finishes which Mercedes sells under its ‘Manufaktur’ umbrella. Here’s a detailed look at the paint palette available on the Mercedes-Benz GLC 5-door, 5-seater SUV, which we hope will help you choose your perfect new car colour.
