Technology and Infotainment

Third-generation MBUX remains at the center of the 2027 GLC Coupe digital experience. It combines a central touchscreen with natural-language voice interaction through “Hey Mercedes.” The system is designed to understand conversational commands rather than requiring rigid phrasing.

An in-dash fingerprint reader can link a driver with an individual user profile and associated preferences.

Transparent Hood uses exterior-camera imagery to provide a virtual view of the area beneath the front of the vehicle during supported low-speed operation. This can provide additional visibility when maneuvering over uneven surfaces or in other situations where the area immediately ahead is difficult to see directly.

Standard ambient LED lighting offers 64 colors.

Available DIGITAL LIGHT headlamps can project supported guidance symbols and alerts onto the pavement ahead. DIGITAL LIGHT is included with Pinnacle Trim.
