![]() So the ‘basic’ interior for a Mercedes GLC in either AMG Line or AMG Line Premium trim is Artico black man-made leather upholstery, front sports seats with a Comfort Package, a black Nappa leather multifunction Sports steering wheel with paddle shifts, metal-structure dashboard trim and a black roof headlining. For the top-grade AMG Line Premium Plus, it gets true cow hide leather and again comes in 3 colours, but these are a slightly different array than the Artico trims. You can then choose to have that in 1 of 3 finishes. Of the 3 specifications available for the SUV, the lower 2 – entry-level AMG Line and mid-grade AMG Line Premium – have man-made leather which Mercedes calls ‘Artico’. There’s a very simple split for the Mercedes GLC interiors. Interior Artico BlackĬost: No cost (standard interior for AMG Line and AMG Line Premium cars) It will also continue to draw attention even when it is somewhat dirty, so Hyacinth Red is a great all-round finish if you’re going to treat yourself with the most expensive paint option come ordering time. Hyacinth is a warm, spicy red that beautifully accentuates both the silver and black exterior detailing that you’ll find on the GLC’s body. The £925 fee for a Manufaktur finish makes far more sense on the GLC if you go for Hyacinth Red, because this is the only red available in the 10-strong, maypalette and it is, in our opinion, possibly the nicest colour available for the Mercedes SUV – aside from Spectral Blue, maybe. These are normally the most expensive and rarest of paint options, and are not offered on many new car models. Matte = uses special ‘flattening’ agents in the paint/layering make-up to give the car a non-reflective appearance, and sometimes an unusual texture too. They’re normally as expensive as or pricier than metallic paints. These not only reflect light but refract it too, giving one colour different appearances in different levels of light. Pearlescent/Mica = as above, only instead of metal, ceramic crystals (known as ‘mica’) are added to the paint. Metallic finishes usually cost more than solid paints. Metallic = same application process as above but the paint now has powdered metal mixed into it, which reflects more light to give the car a shinier appearance. Solid paints aren’t particularly shiny and are normally the only standard/no-cost colours offered by manufacturers. Usually comprises 3 coats, these being a primer, then the paint, then a clear, protective lacquer. Solid = a simple body colour with no additives in the paint. Alongside the exterior finishes, we also outline the interior colours that Mercedes provides to go with these paint choices. There are 10 main paint options for the GLC range, comprising 1 solid paint and then 9 metallic paints – two of which are more prestigious finishes which Mercedes sells under its ‘Manufaktur’ umbrella. ![]() Here’s a detailed look at the paint palette available on the Mercedes-Benz GLC 5-door, 5-seater SUV, which we hope will help you choose your perfect new car colour.
