Sure, while paying big bucks, you expect your car to stand out and the 2020 GLS sure does. The large twin-slat grille, sleek LED headlamps and the aggressively styled bumpers scream attention. Move on to the side and you’ll notice that the GLS now takes a more rounded approach to its wheel arches and silhouette. The 21-inch wheels also fill up the wheel arches nicely and gives it a butch stance. At the rear, highlights include split LED tail lamps which are connected by a chrome strip. 

Open the door and you’ll notice that the dashboard is reminiscent of the existing S-Class, which is no bad thing as the design is both modern yet elegant. The main highlight here is the twin screen setup which consists of a digital driver’s display and Mercedes’ brilliant MBUX infotainment system. 

Speaking of which, top-spec variants of the 2020 GLS come loaded with features. Highlights include connected car technology, a panoramic sunroof, a Burmester audio system, ambient lighting, Mercedes’ AIRMATIC suspension, power adjustable seats, front seats with massage function, and upto a 5-zone climate control. Safety features include up to 9 airbags, ABS with EBD, front and rear parking sensors, electronic stability control, park assist, and a 360-degree camera. 

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS can be had with three engine options: a 3.0-litre diesel and a 3.0-litre petrol engine option. The petrol engine also comes with a hybrid technology which provides 22PS and 250Nm torque boost under hard acceleration. Here are the specifications:
