In this video itโ€™s Simone with her review of the 2018 Mercedes-AMG GLC43 AMG. Itโ€™s a well-priced high-performance luxury subcompact SUV. Sure it is the V6 version of the AMG car, not the beastly V8 one from the GLC63 AMG but it still offers more than enough driving fun.

This AMG version of the GLC43 has a 3.0 litre V6 Biturbo made by AMG with 270 kW of power and 520 Nm of torque.
