What Owners are Saying About the 2026 Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-Maybach GLS
"it has many advantages matching an X7"
"While many are saying it doesn't stand a chance against a Navigator or Escalade, the GLS has a roomier 3rd row, is more tech-advanced (thank you, MBUX!), and is more luxurious."
"Best new car since my Datson B210 or Lincoln LS"
"This car is perfect in every way. Its quality is outstanding, its design is cutting edge, it is dependable, extremely safe, gets outstanding gas mileage for a very large SUV, it is very comfortable and quiet, and it is easy to drive. It was delivered complete and ready to go with a full tank of gas and all license plates and required government stickers in place. All we have done to it is put in gasoline get it washed and enjoy. It is well worth the cost. We recommend it highly. it is the best car we have ever owned or driven."
"Premium SUV. Great for long trips."
"The performance and efficiency of this light hybrid SUV is phenomenal. The electronics are quite significant with two twelve inch screens which allow easy control of all vehicle functions. It seats seven comfortably and has the same suspension as the S-Class so it is great for long trips. Quality throughout. The GLS580 is relatively hard to find but well worth it. It is the perfect balance between the GLS450 which is underpowered/trucklike and the AMG version which is trying to make it into something that it is not."
