The GLS is Mercedes' answer to premium three-row SUV ambitions, delivering a potent 376bhp powertrain with impressive 750Nm torque and genuinely sophisticated in-cabin tech. At ₹127.9 lakh, it commands respect through a composed ride, seven-seat flexibility, and the star badge cachet—though running costs and real-world efficiency temper the value story.

Stands out

  • 376bhp engine with 750Nm torque—potent and refined powerhouse
  • Nine airbags and two ADAS functions provide solid safety net
  • Ten tech features including ventilated seats and panoramic sunroof
  • Seven-seat configuration with 355L boot for family practicality
  • 11 kmpl ARAI efficiency respectable for the segment's bulk

!Gives us pause

  • Premium ₹127.9 lakh pricing demands deep pockets
  • Dual-fuel option adds complexity; petrol is thirstier on real roads
  • ADAS suite is limited compared to rivals' systems
  • Seven-seat third row remains tight for adult occupants
