Summary

The Mercedes-Benz GLK 200 CDI 7G-Tronic (2010) is rated by experts for good fuel efficiency (7.2 L/100km) thanks to its 7-speed automatic transmission, acceptable torque (350 Nm) and driving comfort. It is distinguished by its high quality of construction and distinctive appearance. The main downsides are poor acceleration performance (10.9s 0-100km/h), dated interior design (front facelift), and limited rear/trunk space. Common problems reported with the OM651 engine in this generation include defects of piezoelectric fuel injectors (especially in early models), problems with the timing chain, and electrical defects.
