2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 First Impressions

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
The new GLK350 is a deceptive vehicle. By itself, it seems as large as an ML-series Mercedes. Put the ML beside the GLK and you can see how your eye gets deceived. The GLK is narrower, shorter and lower, but has the lines to hide it well. The GLK tapers slightly from lower sill to the roof line when you look at it from the back. Full story...

2009 Mercedes-Benz R320 Bluetec - Fuel Efficient News, Car Features and Reviews - Automobile Magazine
It's a van! It's an SUV! It's a wagon! Well, we're not sure what the 2009 Mercedes-Benz R320 Bluetec is, but we do know it's a diesel.

Unfortunately, history has shown that neither diesels nor the Mercedes-Benz R-Class are popular in North America. So why, then, would Mercedes drop its brand-new BlueTec diesel engine into the 2009 Mercedes-Benz R320 Bluetec and sell it here?

2010 Mercedes Benz SL65 AMG Black Series - Mercedes Benz Sport Coupe Review - Automobile Magazine

And when your neighbors have an AMG in the driveway, there's only one way to beat them - an AMG Black Series.
