ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz Glc?
The 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLC enters the market without federal crash-test ratings. NHTSA has not put this model year through its crash-test program.

The Engine, Power Train, and Electrical System each generated multiple reports, as did Forward Collision Avoidance, which saw five allegations. While the 2021 GLC achieved a Safety Index of 92, that figure pertains to an earlier iteration and does not apply to the 2024 model.
