Summary

This model represents the standard petrol variant of the R-Class in the US before the transition to the BlueEFFICIENCY direct injection engines. The M272 V6 engine is known for its refinement, but in such a heavy vehicle and with the 4MATIC system, fuel consumption remains relatively high, especially in urban environments. It is important that the owners check the condition of the intake manifold flaps and ensure that the gearbox services are regularly performed to avoid collisions during the change of speeds.
