Mercedes India launches petrol GLS 400 4MATIC at Rs 82.9 lac
Now you can have your full-size M-B SUV in either fuel type
It hasn’t been long since Mercedes-Benz India announced availability of their V6 petrol-powered GLE 400. Now the bigger brother gets the same motor in the GLS 400 4MATIC. The motor generates 333hp and 480Nm of torque and puts the power down through a 9-G TRONIC transmission, up two gears from the GLE.
The SUV is currently being offered as a CBU and you can have it in two colours, as long as those colours are white and black. Local production will commence towards the end of 2016. The feature list, as expected, is long and luxurious. There’s a 14-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound entertainment system, Apple CarPlay support, five driving modes, all-wheel drive, many, many airbags and a full LED headlight system with an adaptive high-beam assist, which sounds similar to what Audi offers in their ‘Matrix’ products.
Additionally, you get ORVMs that project the M-B logo on the ground ala Range Rover, adaptive air suspension, an 8" high-res infotainment screen with a touchpad control and seat memory for the front seats. The GLS 400 4MATIC is available now for Rs 82.9 lac ex-showroom across India.
