Serving Maple Shade, NJ
When it comes to the car that you own, you should feel confident with the set of wheels that you drive each day. Those who are looking for an edgy and impressive car to purchase can consider the 2019 QX50 and the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC. Here are the most notable differences in various categories between each model to narrow down your options.
Comfort
A high level of comfort is provided in the new QX50 with leather upholstery, heated and cooled front seats, a heated steering wheel, and power-adjustable front seats standard. A six-speaker audio system, an optional A 17-speaker Bose audio system, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a moonroof come with the new model to improve the experience of riding in the car. 31.4 cubic feet of cargo space is also available behind the rear seat and proves to be sufficient when traveling with bulky luggage or sporting equipment.
Soft-touch materials are abundant in the cabin of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC to create a classy but modern environment. A 14-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, leatherette upholstery, ventilated front seats, and a driver’s seat with memory settings are standard. The outward visibility could be improved if larger windows were present on the SUV, which would prevent the cabin from feeling as cramped in the back.
Interior Features
Plenty of interior features are available at your fingertips when you want to utilize a rearview camera, pedestrian detection, the InTouch dual-screen infotainment system, backup collision intervention, front and rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, a surround-view camera, lane departure warning and prevention, and a head-up display are offered. A dual-screen infotainment setup is offered for increased ease of use when adjusting the settings without becoming distracted. The lack of buttons provides a minimal and futuristic look in the cabin.
19.4 to 56.5 cubic feet of cargo space is provided in the back of the Mercedes-Benz GLC, which is average for its class. The SUV is ideal for empty nesters but may not offer enough cargo space for families. Features include two USB ports, dual-zone automatic climate control, HD Radio, Bluetooth, and a 7-inch display. The COMAND tech interface is confusing to use and features too many knobs that can be distracting.
Performance
A turbocharged 2.0-liter engine is included in the 2019 INFINITI QX50 and generates 268 horsepower with great fuel economy. The model gets 24 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway, which is impressive for an SUV. Front-wheel-drive comes standard with all-wheel-drive available. The excellent suspension system delivers supple ride by absorbing potholes and bumps on the highway or road. Direct Adaptive Steering is an additional upgrade that is offered for an improved driving experience.
Built with a 2.0-liter 241-horsepower, turbocharged four-cylinder engine that offers quick acceleration with a smooth-shifting nine-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle manages to maintain its composure around turns and curves in the road while staying planted to the ground for increased stability and driver confidence. Although the steering is weighty, the power steering doesn’t provide sufficient feedback compared to what’s offered in the 2019 QX50.
