The Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is undeniably spacious, with seating for seven adults and up to 83.3 cu ft of cargo room - but also undeniably luxurious. Providing its passengers with heated power front seats, multi-zone climate control and eight beverage holders. And from its hand-fitted upholstery to its expansive legroom, it's as gracious as it is generous.
Two gasoline V-8s and a remarkable clean-diesel BlueTEC V-6 eagerly produce enough torque to tow 7,500 lbs,[*1] all with certified Ultra Low Emissions. Each is teamed with a 7-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, so you have all of that power at your fingertips any time you want.
With standard 19, 20 or 21-inch wheels and a 4-wheel independent air suspension, the 2012 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class move with unexpected agility, even under pressure. The AIRMATIC control, which is self-leveling, adapts to challenging roads and changing loads. It lowers the ride height at higher speeds, for added stability and efficiency. For deep snow or ruts in the road, the driver can raise the suspension at the touch of a button, too.
