If got any hybrid, mild hybrid just get out from it. Even non hybrid merc also got a lot of issues nowadays, just think about adding more components... doh.gif Numerous complaints nowadays, unless your getting pure EV most other cars from them really bad nowadays.

Rumoured CKD will be around RM390k-RM400K.

Corporate discount will be at 4%.

So given a choice , GLC300 VS Lexus NX250 which one would you choose ?

Not to say bad, but merc nowadays the interior really like lala bang car (those interior LED, u know what i mean), If you go touch their interior plastics really feel cheap. If you ask me which car feel more luxury, mature nowadays is Lexus, furthermore their reliability also win Merc far ahead..

NX350 F-Sport proce has incrased RM25k last month with no corporate discount .

If you look and compare Lexus NX & Merc GLC pricing oversea , like Hong Kong or Taiwan, you will find that Lexus is priced much lower . It is out tax structure that causes Lexus to sell so much more expensive for CBU !!

Ouch, I thought still just below RM400k
Painful, but in terms of build quality, for me nothing comes close to CBU direct from Japan.
Also, Lexus has the best smelling leather of any of the luxury brands, imho.

I hope their Kinto subscription price doesn’t increase. When my 3yr Harrier sub is up end of 2024, I’m hoping company finances allow for an upgrade to a Lex.

Lexus NX250 is 2.5 NA engine, it's Toyota Dynamic Force engine. Same engine as Camry 2.5 (current FL) and RAV 4 (if i remember correctly)

If you say pure EV I will agree Merc is in the lead.
But if ask about Toyota/Lexus hybrid (Which the latest GLC is a hybrid also) is way more better (efficient) & reliable than merc anytime.
Merc can only boost about higher power hp/torque numbers but in actual world not much people can fully utilize also.

At least Merc comes with mobile app "Mercedes Me" which is very useful in my opinion and better interior.

The new FL coupe will come end of the year.

Went for test drive last weekend. Am impressed with the technology. Currently driving competitor's car but the technology really cannot compare.
