6. Driving & Comfort
Driving & Comfort Assessment
City Driving
The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions. Large footprint makes narrow lanes challenging, but visibility helps.
Highway Performance
With 362 bhp and 750 Nm, overtaking at highway speeds is effortless. Strong diesel torque of 750 Nm makes highway driving relaxed, especially in higher gears.
Ride & Comfort
Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. Premium cabin insulation keeps NVH levels low for a refined experience. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips. Third-row seating is best for children; adults may find it cramped on long journeys.
7. Community Sentiment
Community verdict for Mercedes-Benz GLS: Sentiment is overwhelmingly positive. Owners frequently praise safety.

20 reviews"Mercedes GLS Is The Ultimate SUV: An amazing addition to my family has been the Mercedes-Benz GLS I bought from the Delhi showhouse. The GLS has really remarkable and elegant design. Family travels are fun because to the roomy and opulent interiors featuring adjustable seating choices. Fantastic are the sophisticated elements including panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, and big touchscreen infotainment system.

"Commanding Luxury Meets Muscle: The Mercedes-Benz GLS 450d 4MATIC AMG Line: The Mercedes-Benz GLS 450d 4MATIC AMG Line truly lives up to its reputation as the “S-Class of SUVs.” It combines imposing road presence, exceptional comfort, and strong diesel performance, making it one of the most well-rounded luxury SUVs in its segment. From the outside, the AMG Line styling gives the GLS a sporty edge. The bold grille, large alloy wheels, and clean, elegant proportions ensure it looks premium and commanding without being overly aggressive. It’s a vehicle that effortlessly stands out, whether parked or cruising on the highway. Step inside, and the luxury becomes immediately apparent. The cabin is spacious, beautifully finished, and packed with high-quality materials. The dual widescreen displays, ambient lighting, and plush seats create a refined and modern atmosphere. With three rows of seating, the GLS offers excellent comfort for all passengers, even on long journeys, making it ideal for families or chauffeur-driven use. Under the hood, the 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel engine delivers strong and smooth performance. Power is effortless, and the 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system ensures confidence on highways, rough roads, and light off-road conditions. Despite its size, the GLS feels stable and composed, with a suspension setup that prioritizes comfort while still handling well for a large SUV. Ride quality is one of the GLS’s biggest strengths. It absorbs bumps and uneven surfaces with ease, providing a calm and relaxed driving experience. Long highway drives feel effortless, and the cabin remains quiet and serene even at higher speeds. In terms of efficiency, the GLS 450d offers respectable mileage for a luxury SUV of its size, making it a practical choice for those who want performance without excessive fuel consumption."

The interior design look really nice and the dashboard is really interested with the spacious cabin. I have a big family so the GLS is the perfect fit for us for trips and with the top model i got the diesel engine that is very powerful and the performance is lot more than expect."

Definetly GLS comes with the most luxurious cabin and interior and is really really comfortable also in back seat. It gives a nice, soft and comfortable ride and with refinement the engine is really smooth and get pretty nice steering but at high speed it gives a lot of body roll."
