The 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLC 63 interior was pretty new and well equipped, we believe Mercedes will likely carry this over into the upcoming model. To begin with, the front doors open quite wide for easy entry; the rear ones, however, are a bit tight. From the moment you step onboard, you will experience leather bolstered seats that can be electronically adjusted for maximum comfort as well as memory settings. Moreover, all the controls and buttons are positioned to ensure the driver's comfort. Several carbon fiber elements can also be found on the dash, and frequently used touchpoints feature soft-touch materials.
However, some noise gets into the cabin when the engine is pushed hard, making for an enjoyable experience. Front and rear seats provide ample space and even 6-footers can make themselves comfortable without bumping their heads on the roof or having their knees touch the seatbacks. Compared to other SUVs, however, the GLC 63 has a cargo space measured at 24.3 cubic feet, which is reasonable but not exceptional.
