At the 2023 Guangzhou Auto Show, the 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS arrived as scheduled. The new car has been upgraded in terms of interior and exterior design, technology configuration, and power, demonstrating once again what a top luxury SUV is. So how should you choose the new car? This issue of “Car Buying Guide” will answer your questions.
The above manufacturer’s guide price only represents the price of December 4, 2023, and is subject to change. Please refer to the official website for the latest information. The 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS offers 3 models, with prices ranging from 1.0938-1.397 million yuan. The entry-level and mid-range models have not changed in price, while the top-end model has slightly increased. In addition, the official also provides a limited-time new car purchase plan.
The 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS has a noticeable change in the front face style, mainly due to the striking front grille, complemented by thick chrome trim and silver galvanized coating, combined with a large Mercedes logo, creating a dignified and atmospheric visual effect. At the same time, the front bumper has been redesigned to create a decent sense of sportiness. The overall shape of the rear of the car has not changed much, still giving a round and dignified visual sense. The new style of the taillights on both sides presents a three-point structure, to some extent improving the overall recognition of the vehicle.
Entry-level models come with five-spoke light alloy wheels, with front and rear tire sizes of 275/50 R20; mid-range models come with AMG twin five-spoke light alloy wheels, with front tire size of 275/45 R21 and rear tire size of 315/40 R21; top-range models come with AMG multi-spoke light alloy wheels, with front tire size of 285/45 R22 and rear tire size of 325/40 R22.
The new car offers 8 body colors for consumers to choose from. Among them, the grandmother stone green color has a significant difference between the actual car and the picture, and it looks very high-end in reality.
In terms of interior, the new car has not changed much overall, but it is equipped with the latest steering wheel from the Mercedes-Benz family, with a very delicate grip. At the same time, the new car has made slight adjustments to the interior color matching, and added the “real-time off-road road image” function, which can clearly present the view of the front path on the central control screen.
The new car offers 2.5T and 3.0T engines with maximum power of 230kW and 280kW, and maximum torque of 450N·m and 500N·m. All models come with a 9-speed automatic transmission.
