A vehicle from BMW or Mercedes-Benz is sure to stand the test of time, but which is more deserving of your hard-earned dollar? In this BMW vs. Mercedes SUV comparison, we’re comparing the fan-favorite BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC. While both options certainly have their merits for Lawrence and Trenton drivers, only one can take that coveted spot in your garage. Compare the BMW X3 vs. Mercedes GLC more in-depth below.
Performance is often a key determining factor for Hamilton-area car shoppers. While both models come equipped with a 2.0L engine under the hood, the BMW X3 has a few advantages over its Mercedes-Benz rival. The X3 has a faster 0-60 acceleration time at 6.0 seconds compared to 6.3 seconds for the GLC. The X3 is also the more efficient of the two luxury SUVs.
You will also be delighted to know that the BMW X3 is also more affordable than the GLC. Enjoy better acceleration and fuel economy figures for less behind the wheel of the BMW X3.
Next, we’ll take a look at the interior of the Mercedes-Benz GLC vs. BMW X3. While both are packed to the brim with opulent amenities, it’s the X3 that comes out on top when looking at cargo space. The X3 has 28.7-62.7 cubic feet of room for your belongings, while you may have to leave some items behind with the GLC. It only offers 19.4-56.5 cubic feet of cargo space.
Having ample room for passengers is also important. Once again, the BMW X3 delivers in this BMW vs. Mercedes SUV comparison. Taller drivers will definitely prefer the BMW X3, as it offers significantly more front headroom at 41.1 inches. Compare this to the GLC from Mercedes-Benz, which only provides 37.8 inches of front headroom.
The best way to see whether the BMW X3 is your perfect match is to take it for a test drive. Contact the team at Princeton BMW for more information, or stop by in person.
