2013 Mercedes-benz Gl-class Gl550 on 2040-cars
Moulton, Alabama, United States
Up for consideration is a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550.
It runs and operates exactly as Mercedes-Benz intended. There are no funny noises, no driving quirks and certainly
no drips or leaks. No warning lights. All maintenance is current. It is an absolute pleasure to drive. If you
didn't know, you'd think it was a brand new SUV from the way it drives and operates. Truly, it's that nice. It is
a true testament to Mercedes quality.
Everything, and I mean everything, works exactly as Mercedes' designers and engineers intended.
The seats are in gray leather. The front seats are heated, air conditioned and are massaging! They, of course,
have memory and lumbar support. The wood trim is honest-to-goodness genuine burl walnut. No cheap plastic here!
The third-row seats have Mercedes' EASY-ENTRY™ feature. The second- and third-row seats fold flat and the second
row has the optional pass-through feature. The four doors have the cool soft-close feature. No need to slam 'em!
Just give the doors a gentle touch and they pull themselves closed and latched securely.
There is Bluetooth interface for hands-free calling. Bluetooth connectivity for audio streaming. MP3 media
interface. Mercedes' COMMAND™ navigation. A color display central controller. Equipped with harmon/kardon
LOGIC7™ surround sound with 830 watts stereo output. The car also has the rear seat entertainment system with
headphones that is a $1,950 extra-cost option. Two 115-volt AC power outlets. The car has a changeable ambient
lighting package for the interior.
There is a 360-degree surround view camera system. (You'll never again skin your front bumper on a curb with this
feature!) Anti-theft alarm system. Automatically folding outside rearview mirrors. Unlock and lock doors with
the wave of your hand. Power liftgate. ISOFIX™ (for child safety seats) anchoring on all rear seats.
One of the nicest features the SUV has is the Driver Assist Package™, a $1,950 option. This includes DISTRONIC
PLUS™ (with PRE-SAFE™ brakes) active blind spot assist and active lane-keeping assist. (I have actually tested
the braking feature by taking my hands off the steering wheel and my foot off the brake pedal and have come up at
35 mph behind cars stopped at a traffic light and the car stayed in the lane and came to a full stop without me
ever touching the brake pedal!!! Scary? YES! But way cool!

New Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe spied in revealing state of dress
Tue, 19 Feb 2013During a product briefing earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz told us that 2013 would be the "year of the S-Class." Makes sense, too, since the flagship Mercedes is so very close to finally showing its production-ready face. But the high-tech saloon isn't the only S-Class to talk about this year - quite the contrary. Seen here in decidedly revealing camouflage, the new S-Class Coupe will be joining its four-door compadre in the not-too-distant future, as well.
When it launches, the S-Class Coupe will officially do away with the CL-Class nomenclature. This doesn't come as a huge shock. After all, when the new E-Class coupe and convertible were launched, it officially marked the end of the long-running CLK-Class designation.
Thanks to the interesting camouflage seen here, we have a very good glimpse at how the S-Class Coupe will look when all of the molding and swirly paper are peeled off. Rakish body lines pulled from the CLS-Class meet a much more dynamic front fascia. Out back, there are horizontal taillamps rather than the vertical units used on the current car, and the whole package seems very svelte. Our spy photographer even posits that this will be "the best-looking car from Mercedes-Benz in ages."
Mercedes-Benz to build new ML coupe-crossover in Alabama in 2015
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Mercedes-Benz will expand its factory in Tuscaloosa, AL, to build the ML Coupe, a new crossover that will join its lineup in 2015. Mercedes will also ramp up production to build facelifted versions of the M-Class and GL-Class SUVs, lifting the factory's total production capacity to about 300,000 units annually in 2015. It made 185,000 vehicles in 2013. In addition to SUVs, the Tuscaloosa site also makes the C-Class sedan.
The plans come as part of Mercedes' strategy to capitalize on Americans' increasing demands for SUVs. The company said the SUV market was up 12 percent in first half of 2014, and expects it to grow at twice the rate of the regular market in 2015 and 2016.
"We are seeing climbing demand for SUVs." - Dieter Zetsche
EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
