2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class Review
By Matt DegenIf you need to haul people and/or cargo and desire one of the plushest, technologically advanced vehicles in which to do it, the 2013 Mercedes GL-Class could be just your ticket. Slightly smaller than
The GL's accouterments and abilities don't come cheap. The least expensive GL-Class starts at more than $63,000, and costs can rise to over $100,000 for a loaded version. Less-expensive –
"Quiet" and "capable" are the two best words to describe the 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class. Though the vehicle is quite large, it does not feel that way on the road. The GL's turning radius is relatively compact, which makes parking easier. The GL-Class is an exceptionally quiet, comfortable and composed vehicle. These characteristics are laudable in a sedan, never mind a 3-row SUV. Road tendencies favor the cushy vs. the dynamic, though a "sport" mode can be put to good use on twisty roads to firm up steering fe

"Prior to buying 2013 GL, I owned a 2010 GL. The 2nd generation 2013 is much better than the 2010 model. The cabin is very quite and the engine is more powerful, even though the engine size is same. I love the bird view created by 4 cameras in the car. Overall, the car is very nice. It has the smoothest ride when compared to other large SUV I tried (Lexus GX, Escalade, Navigator & Q7) The safety features are impressive. The instrument panel is still very complicated and needs improvement. I tried a Lincoln MKT, which has a much better instrument panel."

"I have owned the Diesel version for about 3 months now, after trading up from my 98 ML320 SUV with over 190,000 miles. This new "Truck" is one of the best cars that I have ever owned (My other car is a 95 S320 with over 250,000 Miles). I am getting over 28mpg on the highway with plenty of torque when needed (it is actually faster to 60mph than my 1968 Porsche 911 Targa). When you are driving it on a trip, it is the kind of car that so enevelops you with security and comfort that you don't want the trip to end. In summary - a fantastic piece of engineering!"
