The shooters at KGP Photography caught some prototypes for the new Mercedes GLC crossover essentially undisguised as they left the factory. It's the first time the replacement for the outgoing GLK has been caught without its heavier camouflage kit. About 95% of the production bits are now visible, as are the design changes that have been applied to coincide with its new name—thanks to Mercedes' new naming conventions.

KGP also got a revealing shot of a GLC's interior, fully revealing the prototype's center stack and LCD screen.
