Summary

The Mercedes-Benz gls 450 4MATIC (2025) is rated as an SUV with exceptional comfort ("S-Class of SUVs") and fast performance (6.0s 0-100 km/h) thanks to the added power of the Phase-II MHEV version. The Phase-II update has brought an improved interior and technology. The main downsides remain high fuel consumption (12.0 L/100km), large size for driving/parking, and high complexity of systems (especially AIRMATIC and 48V MHEV air suspension) that may affect reliability, as well as potential MBUX software problems.
