Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC Business Leasing, Fixed Costs, Every Trim Available
Fixed monthly Business Contract Hire on the all-electric Mercedes-Benz GLC. Up to 406 miles of official range, twin-motor 4MATIC all-wheel drive and a 4% Benefit in Kind rate for 2026/27, sourced independently across every trim from Sport to Premier Edition.
The Basics
What is the Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC?
The GLC 400 4MATIC is the launch version of the new, fully electric Mercedes-Benz GLC, built on a dedicated EV platform rather than adapted from a combustion car. It is important to note this is a separate model from the existing petrol and diesel GLC that Mercedes continues to sell alongside it, so it is always worth confirming with your consultant that you are being quoted the electric version.
The GLC 400 4MATIC uses two electric motors, one on each axle, for a combined output of 489hp and all-wheel drive as standard. A rear-mounted two-speed transmission and a front-axle disconnect unit are used to balance outright performance with efficiency, giving a 0–62mph time of 4.3 seconds and an official range of up to 406 miles from its 94kWh usable battery.
As a zero-emission company car, the GLC 400 4MATIC qualifies for the lowest band of Benefit in Kind tax available in the UK, and its combination of Mercedes interior quality, a class-leading multi-screen "Hyperscreen" option and genuinely usable range makes it a strong choice for businesses wanting a premium electric SUV for directors and senior staff. Business Car Leasing lets your company access the GLC 400 4MATIC on fixed monthly payments, without the high upfront cost of buying outright.

Why Lease This Car?
Why businesses choose the GLC 400 4MATIC on lease
The electric GLC combines Mercedes' interior quality and comfort-focused ride with genuinely competitive range and charging, making it a strong choice for directors and business fleets moving to electric.
Low Benefit in Kind
As a zero-emission vehicle, the GLC 400 4MATIC sits in the lowest BiK band available, 4% for 2026/27, dramatically cutting company car tax compared with an equivalent petrol or diesel SUV.
Protect Your Cash Flow
Replace the high purchase price of a premium electric SUV with a fixed monthly rental, keeping working capital available for the rest of the business rather than tied up in a depreciating asset.
No Depreciation Risk
Electric vehicle residual values can move quickly, especially on an all-new platform. On Business Contract Hire, the finance company carries that risk, not your business.
Comfort-Focused Everyday Range
With up to 406 miles of official range and 330kW rapid charging, the GLC 400 4MATIC comfortably covers most business mileage while offering a notably quiet, refined ride.
Support ESG & Sustainability Goals
Moving company car drivers into zero-emission vehicles like the GLC 400 4MATIC supports corporate sustainability commitments and reduces fleet-related carbon reporting.

Tax Considerations
Tax advantages of a Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC company car
The GLC 400 4MATIC's zero-emission status brings meaningful tax advantages, although exact treatment depends on individual circumstances. Always seek advice from your accountant or tax adviser.
4% Benefit in Kind
Fully electric cars like the GLC 400 4MATIC attract a BiK rate of just 4% for 2026/27, rising to 5% in 2027/28, dramatically reducing company car tax versus an equivalent combustion SUV.
VAT Recovery
VAT-registered businesses may reclaim up to 50% of the VAT on the lease rental where there is any private use, or up to 100% for exclusively business use. Maintenance VAT is generally 100% reclaimable.
Corporation Tax
Monthly lease rentals on the GLC 400 4MATIC may generally be treated as an allowable business expense, and zero-emission vehicles are not subject to the lease rental restriction that applies to higher-emission cars.
Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances. Always seek independent professional tax advice before entering into any finance agreement.
Compare Your Options
Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC leasing vs the alternatives
Understanding how Business Car Leasing compares with other ways of funding a Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC helps you make the right decision for your company.
Business Leasing vs Buying a GLC 400 4MATIC Outright
| Feature | Business Car Leasing | Buying Outright |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Cost | Low initial rental only | Large capital outlay for a premium EV |
| Monthly Costs | Fixed for the full agreement | Variable, finance and maintenance |
| Battery Residual Risk | Finance company | Your business |
| Resale Responsibility | None, simply return | Business must sell the car |
| Access to Latest Tech | Every 2–4 years as standard | Usually longer replacement cycles |
Mercedes GLC 400 4MATIC vs Other Electric SUVs
The electric GLC competes directly with the BMW iX3, Audi Q6 e-tron and Tesla Model Y, all similarly sized and priced. The GLC is generally regarded as offering a quieter, more comfort-oriented ride and Mercedes' most advanced cabin technology, including the optional Hyperscreen, while the iX3 currently leads on official range and the Model Y undercuts it on price. VCEA can quote across all of these alongside the GLC so you can compare monthly costs side by side.
GLC 400 4MATIC Business Leasing vs Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
PCP agreements include an optional Guaranteed Future Value, a final balloon payment giving the option to buy, return or part-exchange. Business Car Leasing on the GLC 400 4MATIC has no purchase option, the car is simply returned at the end, avoiding any exposure to future battery or resale values, which can be harder to predict on an all-new platform than on an established combustion car.
