Pre-Owned 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC vs 2019 Lexus NX: Used luxury comparison

If you are looking for a pre-owned compact SUV, you have many options at your disposal. Two of those options are the Mercedes-Benz GLC and the Lexus NX. Both the GLC and the NX have been staples in the compact SUV segment for years now. They are among the best-selling compact SUVs on the market, and whether new or pre-owned they are usually at the top of the list of anyone looking for a used SUV. Here, we take a look at each option and how they compare in terms of interior space, value, and other elements that are important for anyone looking for a pre-owned SUV.


One of the most impressive elements of the Mercedes-Benz GLC, even when it is pre-owned, is the driving pleasure that it offers. The Mercedes-Benz GLC is simply a blast to drive and even though it is spacious and even though it is versatile, it doesn't neglect driving pleasure. This is a very important element that should be considered. The Mercedes-Benz GLC will give you everything you want from your pre-owned SUV, but experts will tell you that it is quite a bit more fun to drive then the Lexus NX.



In terms of available powertrains, most pre-owned Mercedes-Benz GLC models that you find on the market will feature a 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder engine with 241 hp and 273 pound-feet of torque. This always gives you enough performance to pass and accelerate with confidence, and it also gives you slightly better accelerations and overall performance than what you find in the model we are comparing here.


On the other hand, used Lexus NX models will usually feature a 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder engine with 235 hp and 258 pound-feet of torque. It's not a huge difference, but it's noticeable. Behind the wheel, it is especially noticeable.


We buy a sport utility vehicle for versatility first and foremost. At least, that would be the case with most buyers. In other words, although the fuel economy and the performance of the Mercedes-Benz GLC stands the comparison very well with its rival at the end of the day you are probably wondering which of these two pre-owned SUVs offers the most cargo space. The answer to that question would be the GLC which offers 549 L of cargo space behind the rear seats, and 1,600 L of cargo space total. The Lexus NX, however, has a cargo area of 501 L, which is acceptable, but significantly less than its rival.
