BlueTEC clean diesel combines mighty torque with mpg.1
GL-Class gasoline V-8s meld high power with low emissions.2
Two gasoline V-8s and a remarkable clean-diesel BlueTEC V-6 eagerly produce the mighty torque necessary for quick acceleration and a towing capacity of up to 7,500 lbs,[*1] all with certified Ultra Low Emissions. Each is teamed with a 7-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, so you can take charge of all that power any time you want.
Standard 4MATIC™ all-wheel drive integrates our 4-wheel Electronic Traction System. 4-ETS continually redistributes the engine´s torque to the wheels with the best grip, even if that´s only one wheel.[*2] And with a permanent 45:55 front/rear torque split, 4MATIC offers sporty handling on dry roads, too.
With standard 19, 20 or 21-inch wheels and a 4-wheel independent air suspension, the GL-Class moves with unexpected agility, even under pressure. Self-leveling AIRMATIC control adapts to changing loads and challenging roads. It lowers the ride height at higher speeds, for added stability and efficiency. Or for deep snow or ruts, the driver can raise the suspension at the touch of a button, too.
As versatile as it is vast, the GL-Class accommodates up to seven adults or 83.3 cu ft of cargo. The 60/40-split 2nd-row seats fold flat in seconds. The 3rd row offers easy access to its generous head and foot room, or power-folds flat in a 50/50 split at the touch of a button.

1. With optional trailer hitch. Read Operator's Manual before towing. In some states, aftermarket trailer brakes are required. See dealer for details.
2. No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires.
