The test mule features updated headlamps, tail lamps and much more.

It seems like there’s a couple of refreshed Mercedes-Benz SUVs coming our way soon. Latest spy shots suggest that the German carmaker is preparing a refreshed version of the GLC as test mules of the premium SUV were caught testing just a few weeks after spy shots of the fourth-gen GLE emerged online.

The GLC, which made its international debut in 2015 and arrived on our shores the next year, is expected to get a nip and a tuck to maintain its appeal in a competitive segment.

 The spy shots suggest that the updates could include new C-shaped LED daytime running lights (DRL) that double up as turn indicators. It will also get a new set of tail lamps with redesigned elements. Other revisions include new front and rear bumpers and a refreshed front grille.

On the inside, the GLC facelift is expected to imitate the recently updated C-Class. So, it’s safe to say that the 2019 GLC will feature a new 10.25-inch screen for the central infotainment system along with a 12.3-inch all-digital instrument cluster.

 The steering wheel will also be new and feature touch-based controls for the infotainment system and cruise control, like the latest cars from Mercedes-Benz.

Under the bonnet, the refreshed GLC is likely to get the new set of petrol and diesel engines that power the C-Class facelift. If that happens, the GLC 300 will feature an updated 2.0-litre petrol engine that makes 258PS of power and 370Nm of peak torque, while the GLC 220 d will get a new 2.0-litre diesel engine that makes 194PS and 400Nm. Both the engines will be mated to a 9-speed 9G-Tronic automatic gearbox.

The current India-spec GLC can be had with a 2.0-litre petrol engine (245PS/370Nm) and a 2.2-litre diesel engine (170PS/400Nm).
