With its streamlined styling the R-Class is deceptive in size. It is a true 7 seater with acres of room. Even in the third row adults can sit comfortably over long distances with plenty of leg and shoulder room. The standard specification is comprehensive with multifunction steering wheel, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, Modular Cockpit Management and Data system (COMAND), which integrates a stereo/CD player, a large color LCD screen, navigation system and telephone integration (or SIRIUS Satellite Radio as a no cost option). Being car based rather than truck based gives the R350 an agility and poise that other 7 seat SUVs simply cannot match.

Of course this is not intended as a serious off road vehicle, however the R350 4MATIC will easily cope with any adverse road conditions. As a method of transporting up to 7 passengers in comfort over long distances and in complete safety, the Mercedes-Benz R-Class R350 4MATIC is a hard act to follow.

Mercedes Benz ML Class 2010

Maybe you are not believed, nut Mercedes-Benz is the biggest manufacturer of luxury SUVs, than any other luxury automaker. The M-Class was in the market after years ago, one decade ago. To reach that level of very impressive performance, comfort, luxury and price, and its entire combine under a hood and in a coupe. Now in its second generation it represents a middle ground for Mercedes shoppers searching for more utility and an elevated ride height. The different classes of the Mercedes has varieties of specifications – every with its own. The GLK is too small, suitable for the city boulevards; the GL is too big, more than caravan, the R is like minivan, and G is too pricey and hit your pocket. Than why don’t you try the M-Class?

The most diverse selection of engines has exactly in M-Class Mercedes Benz. It is a hybrid in both of gasoline-powered V6 and V8, a hypersonic AMG-spiced V8, a clean-burning turbo diesel and a new-for-2010 hybrid. Each of those models is similarly equipped, so opting for a smaller; more fuel-efficient powertrain doesn’t come with a luxury penalty.

But the big news is the new hybrid. Mercedes says it offers V8 power with four-cylinder fuel economy. Well, that may be technically true, but there’s been so much weight added that the acceleration is identical to that of the regular V6-powered M-Class, and its fuel economy is about what you’d expect a four-cylinder to achieve when saddled with 5,200 pounds of SUV. Considering that the M hybrid returns an estimated 21 mpg city/24 mpg highway while the Lexus RX 450h hybrid returns 30 city/28 highway, it seems Mercedes hasn’t exactly raised the bar for hybrid SUV efficiency. And still for the fens of the Mercedes-Benz this is the SUV that they be in love forever.
