The Mercedes Benz GL-Class cannot be compared to any other make on the market. It is only fair to compare the Mercedes Benz GL320 to its other version the Mercedes Benz GL450. Both of these models fall in the light truck category and offer seating capacity for 7 passengers. Their pricing is also similar but the Mercedes Benz GL450 gives you more power for your money. The Mercedes Benz GL320 CDI SUV is equipped with a 3.0-liter 24-valve V6 diesel engine that outputs 215hp at 3,800rpm while the Mercedes Benz GL450 SUV comes equipped with a 4.6-liter 32-valve V8 engine that outputs 335hp at 6,000rpm. The difference is quite noticeable when gas mileage is taking into consideration. The Mercedes Benz GL320 gives consumers 20mpg in city driving and 25mpg of highway driving while the Mercedes Benz GL450 allows drivers only 15mpg of city driving and 19mpg of highway driving. With gas prices increasing everyday, gas mileage can make all the difference in your decision making process.

Mercedes Benz has been well known for providing consumers with the best technology available in all of their models and luxury has never been more important. The Mercedes Benz GL-Class is proof that SUVs can be functional as well as extravagant. The Mercedes Benz GL320 and GL450 offer drivers and passengers a luxurious space with identical interior features that include full leather seating surfaces with heated front seats, second row split folding bench seats for ultimate cargo capacity, genuine Brown Birdseye Maple wood trim located on center floor console and doors, electronic trunk closer with a fully automatic power lift-gate, retractable cargo area cover, cruise control, and privacy tinted glass on side and rear windows. These and many more luxury features place these two models on the top 10 SUV list time and time again.

India's rising number of millionaires is driving sales of luxury and super luxury cars. In the territory, luxury and super luxury cars are showing stable growth while the small and medium passenger car segments are slacking off.

Sales of passenger cars increased by 9.1 percent in May to 96,922 units from 88,863 in the same month a year ago. On the contrary, premium and super-luxury brands, including Nissan, Skoda, Mercedes Benz and Rolls Royce have been enjoying steady growth. Skoda's flagship Sedan, said to a company release. However, Skoda's total car sales, including economy and premium segments, dropped from 1,000 to 810, in the same period.

To stress, only 0.01 percent of India's population falls in the super-rich bracket, compared with 1.29 percent in Japan and 1.48 percent in Singapore. But the millionaires are significantly helping the luxury segments of the territory.

Daimler-Chrysler India, manufacturers of Mercedes Benz product lines, earlier shifted from importing completely built units (CBU) to manufacturing cars in the territory from completely knocked down (CKD) units. According to sources, Mercedes Benz sales have increased by over 100 percent in the last three months since it started rolling out CKD units.

This year, Mercedes launched two new models, including the Rs 1.7 crore new CL Class and the new diesel S Class. There was huge demand for these cars in the central and eastern parts of Maharashtra, sources said. But Daimler-Chrysler does not publish sales figures as a matter of policy.

The Mercedes-Benz CL-Class, a grand tourer, is currently available in two models: the CL500/CL550 and the CL600. The S-Class, on the other hand, is the world's best-selling luxury flagship sedan. The car features advanced drivetrain technologies, safety systems, and interior features. Remarkably, the car introduced the first anti-lock brakes, seatbelt pretensioners, airbag supplemental restraint systems, and the electronic stability control. The latest generation, the W221, debuted in 2005 as an all-new design. The latest S-Class is sold in standard and long wheelbase versions and offers V6, V8, V12, and diesel powertrains.

Mercedes-Benz has a new super car called the SLS AMG. With starting prices of around one hundred and eighty thousand dollars it is priced to directly compete with the likes of Porsche, Ferrari and Aston Martin. Aside from all the usual performance comparisons there is one thing this car has that the others do not - the gull-wing Mercedes is back. Entertainment: well, there is a 6.2 liter engine in the front providing a rumble to match anything to come out of Detroit. With over five hundred and fifty horsepower the SLS would be an entertaining drive even if the handling was poor. Fortunately that is not the case. It's agile, poised and although its feels quite stiff on the road the combination of engine of handling provides a fantastic drive.

In term of practicality the car is a bit of a mixed bag. Mercedes have obviously considered how this car is going to be used and the SLS comes with typical features to provide everyday usability like sat-nav and a decent stereo. However the gull wings, as iconic as they are, make it a pain to get in and out of the car, make the car very wide and you really have to stretch to pull the doors down once your inside. The design also means headroom is fairly tight as well.

The gearbox is a dual clutched affair which works notably well. There's a slight delay whenever you flick the paddles yet in general it feels very responsive and sharp. The car is quite definitely rear wheel drive. The seating position is very back and harks back to old school, honest GT's and blended with the sharp steering you've whole faith in exactly where the front of the vehicle is gonna go. This super car can easily go round edges very, very quick - in case you try hard enough you could actually compete with a four-wheel drive 911 Turbo. It's also really quick in a straight line - indeed outstanding for a heavy, front engined Grand Tourer.

Looking at value for cash - can any car at this selling price be regarded as fair value? Probably not but put along with its peers it is well priced. Let's look at it one other way - against the Mercedes McLaren SLR, the Mercedes SLS is quicker, handles better and is less costly to the tune of nearly 200,000 dollars.

Mercedes Used Car Export: Toronto imports new and used Mercedes Benz cars, and all the essential spare parts. The collaboration of Mercedes all over the world, has given this market a distinction in their dealing of consumer's needs, at reasonable prices obtained at Toronto. They maintain a state-of-the-art inventory with an inventory revenue rate updated regularly.
The cars in Toronto also remain in good shape because Canadian roads are great. Hence, despite being in use for a long time, Mercedes cars barely display any wear. The suspension is usually at 90% of its original condition, even after the car being driven for 6-7 years. Since repair costs are high in most cases, customers usually are forced to buy new cars, rather than repairing a broken down one. Hence, used cars have low mileage and are in good mechanical condition, which is what makes Toronto a very attractive used car market.

Many people in Toronto choose the CLK class because of its great features.

The C63 AMG Performance Package Plus is easily identifiable by its subtle carbon fiber spoiler perched atop the rear deck lid and red AMG branded brake calipers all around. With the performance upgrades that AMG had in store for the C63 Plus, a very sophisticated set of front brakes were in order. The result is a specially designed carbon composite rotor that connects to a unique aluminum hat that is designed to not only stop the car more efficiently but transfer heat more effectively as well. On the inside, the Mercedes Benz design team decided to set this C63 apart from the rest by incorporating a nappa leather/Alcantara steering wheel and some of their signature black Designo leather for the upholstery.

The German car builders at Mercedes Benz are going that extra step to make the very popular and powerful C63 AMG a much more potent performance machine.

Mercedes-Benz is recognized around the world as the ultimate German luxury car manufacturer and has a long established history among car buyers.

While composing this list we decided that we absolutely could not leave out the manufacturers stunning and impressive supercar, the SLS AMG. This car was styled after the classic Mercedes Gullwing and contains the traditional Gullwing style doors which open up instead of out to the side like a normal car. This is the ultimate Mercedes-Benz sports car and costs the ultimate price at a base price of $183,000. We realize this is not a practical price for most consumers, but then again no Mercedes-Benz is priced at a practical price for most consumers. Under the hood the car hides a V8 engine which produces 563 horsepower at 6800 rpm. This is a huge number and is one of the highest rated outputs of any V8 engine we have ever seen on a production car.


Mercedes immediately picked up a lot of recognition for this model when it was first unveiled at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show in Germany. Although it's not technically out on the road yet, it is already the safety car for the Formula One Championship series, and it is also already featured in the PlayStation 3 videogame Gran Turismo 5.

The design of the SLS AMG is supposedly an update to one of the Mercedes' all-time models in the 300SL Gullwing. The short body of this car and the passenger placement nearer the real axle make it both compact and easier to handle at higher speeds than other similar models. The wing door set-up is akin to Lamborghini's (or Benz's Gullwing) doors; and the doors are fully detachable.

Although these are all trusted ways of finding a car, they do have certain disadvantages. The Mercedes Benz dealer, for example, adds commission to the selling price. In other words you are possibly paying a few thousand more than if you were to buy directly from the seller.

I could only find one stat for fuel consumptions. The 2007 E280 had a rating of 13/9.1l/ 100km for both city and highway driving.

Let's talk some pros and cons with the E-Class.

1. All the E-Class vehicles have received an average to below average rating for a used car. This also depends on the model.

3. The 2003 E-Class earned a four star rating for front and driver passenger protection.

In 1961, the Checker Motors Corporation, makers of the ubiquitous Checker cab, decided – for whatever reason – to offer a civilian version to private buyers. Called the Superba, you won’t be surprised to learn it was a complete financial flop. Checker went back to making taxi cabs, no doubt thankful they didn’t try to market a civilian hearse instead.
