The second generation of Mercedes's full-size, seven-seat SUV has been
completely redesigned for the 2013 model year and it's big in form as
well as function. The 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class battles the Audi Q7,
BMW X5, Cadillac Escalade, and Lexus LX570.
For ammunition, the 2013
GL-Class offers a range of engines, including a V6 diesel engine for the
fuel-conscious. The look of the new 2013 GL-Class is streamlined (or as
streamlined as a 5000-plus pound SUV can be), with sleek bumpers and
front grille. The interiors across the line, from the optional panoramic
sunroof to the floor mats, are swank in the typical Mercedes style.
