The Electric Mercedes GLC 400 Lands in Australia: How to Personalise the First EV GLC
CarMoods TeamThe Mercedes-Benz GLC has gone electric. The all-new GLC 400 4Matic — the first fully electric version of Mercedes' best-selling medium SUV — went on sale across Australia on 22 July, priced from $112,200 before on-road costs, with first local deliveries expected from October.
It is a serious piece of kit. The GLC 400 rides on Mercedes' electric-first architecture with 800-volt wiring and DC fast charging up to 330kW, a 94.4kWh battery good for a WLTP-rated 630km, and dual motors making 360kW and 800Nm — enough for a 4.3-second sprint to 100km/h. Inside, the headline is the new MBUX Superscreen, with a 10.3-inch driver display and twin 14-inch screens under one pane of glass (an optional 39.1-inch Hyperscreen goes even further).
All of which makes the GLC 400 a rival for the recently launched BMW iX3. And if you have ordered one — or you already run a GLC, C-Class or EQ-series Merc — the good news is that personalising a three-pointed-star cabin is easy and affordable. At CarMoods we stock a full range of Mercedes-Benz accessories, from interior touches to exterior detailing, so a big-ticket EV can feel like yours from day one.

Dress the cabin around that big screen
The GLC 400's Superscreen is the star of the interior, so the trick is to complement it rather than clutter it. A colour-matched steering wheel cover is the simplest way to lift the wheel to the same level of finish as the dash.
A carbon-fibre-and-leather wrap suits the GLC's sporty EV character, adds grip on cold mornings, and protects the factory rim from wear that hurts resale later on.

On a fingerprint-magnet touchscreen like the Superscreen, keep a soft microfibre cloth in the door pocket and wipe the glass with a dry cloth only — never a household spray, which can strip the anti-glare coating.
Make the most of 630km of range
A 630km battery means longer legs between stops, so cabin comfort matters more than ever. A branded neck pillow supports your head on the motorway and looks the part against the GLC's leather.
Pair it with the wheel and seat belt pad for a cohesive, colour-matched look. You'll find plenty more options in our neck pillow and lumbar support range.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a Mercedes steering wheel cover fit the GLC 400?
Yes. Our Mercedes steering wheel covers are made in a stretch-to-fit design that suits standard round Mercedes wheels, including the GLC. Measure your wheel's outer diameter if you're unsure, and check our size and fit guide before ordering.
Are these accessories safe to use in an EV?
Absolutely. Neck pillows, seat belt pads, steering wheel covers and badge accessories are non-electrical and don't interfere with any of the GLC's systems. The LED emblems and hub caps are self-powered and fit externally.
The GLC 400 isn't delivered until October — can I order accessories now?
You can. Many owners like to have their steering wheel cover, neck pillow and exterior touches ready to fit on day one. Everything ships from our Australian-facing store in AUD.
How do I keep the big MBUX Superscreen clean?
Use a dry or barely damp microfibre cloth and wipe gently. Avoid glass cleaners and household sprays, which can damage anti-glare and anti-fingerprint coatings over time.
The GLC 400 4Matic is one of the most impressive electric SUVs to reach Australia this year, and a few well-chosen touches let you make it unmistakably yours — inside and out — before it even arrives. Explore the full Mercedes-Benz accessories collection to build your look.
