Described as the “S-Class among SUVs,” the newly-introduced Mercedes-Benz GLS is essentially the GL model with a minor facelift. Though the majority of the exterior components remain the same, the massive 7-seater now boasts a bigger tri-star logo than its predecessor and revised double slats making the grille even more menacing. New LED headlights, alloy designs and body color options are also included in this latest design. The luxury SUV’s plush interior features a free-standing 8-inch screen, which replaces the integrated infotainment system, a three-spoke steering wheel wrapped in Nappa leather and an optional air ionization system that helps improve the air quality inside of the cabin. Under the hood sits a V8 bi-turbo that delivers 20 bhp more than its predecessor. Expect the first deliveries of the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS to arrive in the U.S. in March of next year.
