I had an extraordinary week immersed in the luxurious experience of the Mercedes-Benz GLS 450 4MATIC. Spending Thanksgiving weekend with this finely crafted SUV, manufactured in Vance, Alabama, elevated the joy of the holiday season, surrounded by family and friends.
Beneath the hood, the GLS 450 4MATIC boasts a 3.0-liter inline-six turbo engine, generating a robust 375 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque.
The power is seamlessly delivered through a 9-speed automatic transmission, featuring the confidence-inspiring 4MATIC all-wheel drive and an AIRMATIC suspension system.
With three rows of seating, I had the pleasure of bringing my family along for Thanksgiving festivities across the DC area, seamlessly navigating I-495 and extending my drive to the serene Annapolis, Maryland.
Inside the cabin, the Burmester sound system provided a symphony of acoustics, creating a peaceful environment perfect for meditation and soul-refreshing moments.
The GLS 450 offers more than just a drive; it provides an oasis of calmness, especially with the panoramic roof, allowing us to stargaze and share moments of serenity with loved ones.
The attention to detail extends to the customizable ambiance, adjustable massages, and reclining rear seats, enhancing the overall comfort and luxury experience.
The exterior’s gold grill offset with gray, coupled with the distinctive AMG wheel package featuring 22-inch rear rims, created a striking visual appeal. Additional touches, such as the night package and the AMG line package, contributed to a well-crafted and elegant appearance.
Beyond its impressive aesthetics, the GLS 450 is fuel-efficient, earning an EPA-rated 24 miles per gallon on the highway. It seamlessly blends luxury, performance, style, and comfort, making it a pinnacle of automotive excellence. The inclusion of various packages and features elevated the delivered price from $87,000 to $97,230, a testament to the wealth of premium features and craftsmanship.
Even my cousin, a Tesla X owner, marveled at the opulence and sophistication of the GLS 450. For those seeking more information, the world of luxury awaits at www.MBUSA.com.
