Mercedes-Benz GL 350 BlueTec Gets Reviewed by Car Advice

The second generation of the largest SUV in the Mercedes-Benz passenger car lineup is off to a much better start than the first one, and that is mainly thanks to the fact that it's now an established model in its own right.

As some of you know, the first generation of the GL-Class was supposed to be called the G-Class, and its original mission was to replace the venerable off-roader with its more modern, M-Class-based platform.

Thankfully, that never happened and the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is now a true competitor to the Range Rover, both from a luxury and from an off-road prowess point of view.

Available with either a fuel-efficient diesel or one of the twin-turbocharged gasoline V8s, the GL-Class is arguably the best seven-passenger SUV in the world right now.

The Aussies from Car Advice took a GL 350 BlueTec for a test drive and made a thorough review detailing their experience with the car, so you might want to check it out if you're interested to know how the RHD version of the SUV stacks up against its competition.
