About the Mercedes-Benz GLS X167
The X167-generation GLS 400 d represents the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz's full-size SUV line-up, marketed as the 'S-Class of SUVs'. It is powered by the OM656 engine, a smooth and potent 2.9-litre straight-six diesel that delivers effortless cruising capability and significant towing power. The interior is defined by its standard three-row seating, dual 12.3-inch MBUX displays, and high-quality materials throughout. While its sheer size is imposing, the standard Airmatic suspension and optional E-Active Body Control provide a level of ride comfort and composure that few rivals in the segment can match.
