Review: Mercedes Benz GLS (2020)
AUTO REVIEW
Mercedes Benz GLS 2020
A two-time SUV of the Year winner returns as a 2020 finalist.
A two-time SUV of the Year champion, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS came back this year with more space, technology, and power. And when we say technology, we’re talking about hardware and software that can even help the suspension system.
Mercedes’ flagship SUV arrived with a fancy setup known as E-Active Body Control (E-ABC), which uses cameras to read the road ahead to adjust the spring and damping rates and provide a smoother ride with the help of a 48-volt system and individual hydraulic pumps. And with a new design language that’s setting the pace for Mercedes’ new SUVs, the GLS brings definite presence to the road.
