Meet the 2024 Mercedes GLS 450 4MATIC in Polar White, my first Mercedes press vehicle! As Tested at $92,510, the facelifted GLS here sports the AMG Line with Night Package, 21in AMG wheels and a MB Tex Brown/Black interior. Loaded with tech, the GLS continues to offer a smooth ride, a smooth powertrain though at a price that is a tough swallow for the base engine.

@Alllcarnews Spec Sheet: The entry level GLS450 4Matic makes 375HP and 369 lb-ft of torque from a 3.0L Turbo mild hybrid Inline-6 cylinder engine. Power is strong and I got up to 25MPG on the highway. The ISG + 48v start/stop system is world class an buttery smooth on startups.

👍🏼 Highs:
+The engine is incredibly smooth with strong power and a refined Inline-6 sound; 48v system and ISG are some of the best i’ve tested.

+The Interior is packed with my favorite version of MBUX, the one that retains physical buttons. Build quality was strong on this tester.

+Power third and second row seats are very welcome, operate like magic.

👎🏻 Lows:
-The air suspension ride is purely focused on luxury and comfort which is great, though is often unsettled over some harsher pavement leading to a hopping side to side motion.

-The GLS is not an athlete. Steering is light, suspension is cushy. Corners are not its friends, that is where the BMW X7 and competitors shine.

-The design is greatly improved for 2024 though it lacks the looks of a vehicle that costs nearly $100k.

-Features like massage seats, rear sun shades, a HUD, and more are not standard on a $90k+ vehicle.

8/10
