We were up in the mountains recently and you will read all about it elsewhere in this issue. But the return journey was quite taxing, a long-distance that had to be finished in limited time in a car that doesn’t like tarmac, big traffic jams to contend with around the Delhi protests, and new procedures at the airport to follow in the wake of the ongoing pandemic. All of which wore me down by the time I landed in Mumbai. Even a walk to the terminal’s café felt like a burden. The kind folks at Mercedes-Benz had agreed to send the test GLC to the airport itself, but it had started seeming like a bad idea. I would have preferred to be driven home. But like most owners of GLC, it was the front seat that was waiting for me. Sort of a role-play, then. With the coffee in one hand and the suitcase being dragged by the other, I walked up to the car. “The blue looks brighter,” I thought to myself, as I opened the boot. It is one of the two new colors added to the GLC for 2021, alongside a silver, and I quite like it. It reminds me of a GLC Coupé that we reviewed last year.
