The New Mercedes GLS (2020) The S-class of SUV

The new Mercedes-Benz GLS will come with a massive grille with dual silver slats with the centre space for the three-pointed star logo. The new GLS also comes with a set of new LED headlamps with integrated LED daytime running lamps. The bumper is also new and appears to come with large intakes on either end with an airdam and skid plate at the centre. From the sides, the SUV certainly looks bigger than ever with the additional wheel arch claddings, new sportier alloy wheels and some other minor tweaks. The rear section has also been updated and we now get a new spoiler, a revised tailgate, and an updated rear bumper.

The GLS will be equipped with all the bells and whistles you get in an equivalent S-Class. Under the hood, the GLS is likely to get the same in-line six and V8 powertrains too which is seen in the S-Class including the GLS 600 which is likely to wear the 'Maybach' badge. Moreover, there will be also a 63 AMG version which will get a 4.0-litre, twin-turbo, V8 engine which is Producing 600 HP.

All Turbocharged, All with Electric Assist -
The 2020 model leans in even further to the idea that the GLS is the S-class of SUVs—and if sedan sales keep on their downward trajectory, it might actually need to become the S-class—with a number of upmarket additions that pave the way to the coming Maybach version, which will be pushing $200,000.

Initial models available are the GLS450, powered by the excellent 362-hp turbo 3.0-liter inline-six with 21 horsepower of electric assist that is spreading across Mercedes-Benz's lineup, and the GLS580, which is powered by a new, 483-hp version of the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8, this one now also boosted with the same 21-hp / 184-lb-ft electric-assist system and 48-volt electrical architecture. Both get a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Larger in Almost Every Dimension -
Mercedes hasn't yet provided interior dimensions, so it's not clear how the GLS's three-inch stretch in overall length, 2.3-inch-longer wheelbase, and nearly an inch of additional width (although its roofline is an inch lower) will translate into increased occupant and cargo space. But one thing that we've always appreciated about the GL/GLS is it's adult-habitable third-row packaged in a footprint smaller than a Tahoe's, and this time around, Mercedes promises more second-row room and comfortable accommodations in the third row for passengers up to six foot five.

Front and rear lamps morph toward the shapes seen on the GLE. From either the front or rear, the new GLS looks more GLE-like than before to our eyes. But it stays on the path of stately elegance, leaving ostentation to others in the segment.
