2025 Mercedes GLC350e

Wife found a new 2025 GLC350e that she wants to try and make an offer on - new, not loaner. The calculator does not have any of the RV or MF for 2025. Are these still able to be leased? If so, how do I find out RV and MF?

No, lease support is not available anymore for 2025 MB units.

We have the same car and we love it but it doesn’t make financial sense to pay $10k more just for the plug in option.

Go with 2026 and gas model. Great deals around.

Thanks.10101

Is $10k the MSRP delta? Because surely it can’t be the delta in total lease cost.

The latter is the only thing relevant here, not MSRP.

Yea, $10k difference roughly in MSRP.

Might depend on the use case though, correct?

Let’s say charging at home (L2 w/solar), 50 mile commute (one way) and free charging at work? Might not want to lease due to miles, but the plug-in will save you in the long run in this case due to the gas outlay I would assume depending on the deal of the 2 when compared?

Maybe not $10k though?

I agree, everything is about how much you pay or do not pay at all for electricity :sweat_smile:

300 is underpowered. 350e has a bit more low end torque. And as @DailyDriven has stated charging may be a difference maker for some.

Its low end torque sucks big time

I never said it didn’t… and don’t look at me… my current quartet is oozing torque at over 2,600 lb-ft lol!

I have one and I’ll say the car is not fast but the instant torque off the line is makes it feel quicker than it really is.

Def not worth the premium over a GLC 300 unless someone can easily charge at home.

IMO the GLC300 is no slouch either. Of course it doesn’t hold a candle to actual performance-based cars but I find it acceptable for what it is.

Yep. I drove a BMW 530i for almost two years. People love to sh*t on 4 bangers but modern day turbo 4 cylinder cars have a good amount of torque and relatively quick

In the default EV mode? Hybrid mode seems better.
@LAK1ngs you kinda did lol
GLC300 low end torque from the start is better if you floor it, IMO
Flooring 350e in EV mode does nothing, until it gets going

I currently have a Volve XC90 T8 - and we have a charger at home (unfortunately no work charging for either wife or me). With the right deal, it can be a savings over gas. If nothing else, psychologically, it feels like a savings by not having to go to the gas station except for every 6 weeks. Oh, and my wife only finds the most expensive gas stations. God forbid she look for cheap gas anywhere!
