As its name suggests, the biggest difference between the Mercedes Benz GLC Coupe and the SUV is the former’s sloping roofline. Additionally, both models get AMG-specific parts like the vertical-slatted grille, more aggressive bumpers, 21-inch alloy wheels, side skirts, quad exhausts, and a rear diffuser.
