The muscular styling of the new generation GL-Class suggests an SUV with plenty of power and torque - and it doesn’t disappoint. A choice of three formidable engines includes the GL 350 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY, which incorporates an array of smart energy saving measures without compromising performance.
For example, the tyres feature a special tread and modified rubber compound to reduce rolling resistance. The Mercedes-Benz star in the radiator grille has been sealed to improve aerodynamics. And the electrohydraulic on-demand power steering helps prevent unnecessary fuel consumption.
The result is an impressively efficient SUV with sub-255 g/km CO2 emissions and combined fuel economy of 29.4 mpg.
A second diesel unit, the GL 450 CDI, delivers added power while the awesome GL 500 petrol V8 achieves 0 – 62 mph in just 6.5 seconds. |
