About the GLC Coupe (C253) 250 4MATIC 211

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe (C253) 250 4MATIC 211 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,785 kg with 208 bhp, which works out at 116 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.11 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,922nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 499th quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 90.2 mph at the lights is only the 5,104th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe (C253) 250 4MATIC 211 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe (C253) 250 4MATIC 211 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
