Mercedes-Benz GLC vs Range Rover Velar Comparison overview

Comparison overview: The Mercedes-Benz GLC starts at ₹77.00 L and the Range Rover Velar at ₹83.90 L, a difference of ₹6.90 L ex-showroom. On-road in New Delhi that gap becomes roughly ₹7.66 L. Here is what the extra money actually buys.

Mileage and running cost: The Mercedes-Benz GLC Diesel/Petrol Automatic is rated at 19.4 kmpl,12.7 kmpl and the Range Rover Velar Diesel/Petrol Automatic at 15.8 kmpl. At 1,000 km a month, the Mercedes-Benz GLC saves you about ₹1.06 K a month and ₹12.68 K a year on fuel.

What one gives that the other does not: The Mercedes-Benz GLC adds Xenon Headlamps, Speed Alert, Pretensioners & Force Limiter Seatbelts, Blind Spot Camera and Fog Lights - Front. The Range Rover Velar adds Door Ajar Warning, Traction Control, Anti-Theft Device, Speed Sensing Auto Door Lock and Heads-Up Display (HUD). The rest of both spec sheets is shared.

Which one should you buy?

Buy the Mercedes-Benz GLC if you drive mostly in the city, you want the lower running cost, and you would rather keep the ₹6.90 L for your down payment than spend it on features.

Buy the Range Rover Velar if you do regular highway runs, you carry luggage or a pram often, and you want Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) without waiting for the next facelift.

The one thing that settles it: Mercedes-Benz GLC offers Xenon Headlamps.

Before you sign anything:

Ex-showroom price is not what you pay. Add registration, road tax, insurance and handling, and expect the final figure to land ten to twelve percent higher. Road tax changes state to state, so a car that costs the same in two cities does not cost the same to own.

Ask the dealer four things before you book. What is the current waiting period for the variant you want. What is the on-road figure.

Then drive both cars back to back on the same day, on a road you actually use. Take your family. Put your usual luggage in the boot. Most people decide in the first ten minutes, and it is rarely for the reason they expected.
