The Mercedes-Benz GLS can easily take out its rivals with its engine options that are muscular and its handling that is well-composed. It offers a luxurious and comfortable cabin which ensures optimum support throughout all distances. Does it have what it takes to outshine the Land Rover Range Rover too? Let’s explore more to learn about these 2 vehicles.
Design & Style
The Mercedes-Benz GLS offers a seating capacity that can support 7 people with a bench seat in the middle row. Captain’s chairs would mean a short of 1 person riding the car. Every seat is covered in synthetic leather whereas other surfaces see luxurious materials that are soft and plush. Space is a given throughout the entire cabin with both leg- and headroom being generously spread throughout.
The Land Rover Range Rover has a total of only 2 rows which can accommodate just 5 people. All of its seats are upholstered in leather and its front row comes equipped with heat and power adjustments. Its cabin is adorned with mostly premium materials that are soft to the touch but not up to the extent of creating a dashing outlook.
Technology & Safety
The Mercedes-Benz GLS comes well-equipped with both safety and tech features and the car’s array of devices is extensive. The equipment includes its MBUX system, a 12.3-inch display, Android/Apple platform compatibility, HD and satellite radios, a wireless charging dock, 9 USB ports, navigation and 13 speakers, parking cameras, rain-sensing wipers, crosswind assist, park assist, attentiveness monitor, blind spot monitor, and adaptive headlamps.
The Land Rover Range Rover has an infotainment system that comes with a pair of 10-inch displays, navigation, Android/Apple platform compatibility, WiFi, Bluetooth® connectivity, satellite and HD radios, and several USB ports. Safety equipment for the car includes parking sensors, departure warning, auto emergency brakes, rain-sensing wipers, collision warning, and rearview camera.
Performance
The Mercedes-Benz GLS is able to deliver 362 horsepower on a 3L engine that is turbocharged and comes with inline 6 cylinders. Its gas mileage can reach 19 mpg in cities and 23 mpg on highways.
The Land Rover Range Rover puts out 355 horsepower under its standard 3L engine and its fuel economy is rated at 19 mpg and 25 mpg for cities and highways respectively.
The Bottom Line
The Mercedes-Benz GLS displays outstanding performance and its interior looks stunning and feels comfortable. The car aims to provide a full-ranging combo of style and power with good fuel efficiency to appeal to just about anyone looking for an all-inclusive driving experience.
The Land Rover Range Rover has a list of features that may be difficult to navigate and its overall cabin space is slightly lacking.
