Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric GLC 400 4MATIC

Why #46

• 800V, 330 kW charging and 330+ miles in Mercedes' best-selling shape; priced squarely against the iX3.
• Strongest on charging (94) and efficiency (78); weakest on market proof (sales) (34).
• Sits below #45 Tesla Model S Long Range AWD mainly on range (76 vs 53).
• Beats #47 Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast on value (46 vs 15).
• Sales floor applied: 826 US units (under 2,000 in Jan–Sep 2026) costs 5 overall points.

Heads-up: Cox's 'Mercedes GLC' line may include prior GLC EQ-badged volume; treat YoY with caution.
