It is inevitable that the holidays are right around the corner. Thanksgiving being next week, and holidays such as Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year's, and more being right around the corner, many people will be hitting the roads throughout Long Island to visit family, friends, and loved ones. It's important to make sure that your Mercedes-Benz is running in tip-top shape before you hit the road. After all, you don't want to get left in the cold during your holiday travels. Here are some car care tips to keep in mind this holiday season: Battery In the colder months, car batteries work harder and therefore draw more energy than in the warmer months. Therefore, wintertime is when many batteries start to die or struggle to start your vehicle. Make sure before you start traveling to visit our Service Department and have your battery inspected on your Mercedes-Benz! If you should need a new battery, we keep plenty in stock through our Parts Department, and you can have it professionally installed by our technicians and be back on the road in no time. Tires Tires are no doubt a crucial part of a vehicle, especially in the winter months when things become wet and icy. If you go into the winter with visibly worn tires, you could be putting yourself in danger. Be sure to check for any visual signs of wear or damage on all four of your tires. It's also important to make sure that your tire pressures are set correctly. If you have any trouble checking your tires, be sure to drive into our Service Drive, where we can inspect your tires and also adjust your tire pressures right in our Service Drive. You can also shop for new tires through our online tire center, where they will be ready for you to be installed here at Mercedes-Benz of Huntington. Ensure you have a "grip" on your holiday road trips this year with some new tires! Oil Engine oil is essential to having a smooth running vehicle. That is why it is highly stressed to keep up on regular maintenance on your Mercedes-Benz vehicles, including scheduled oil changes. Mercedes-Benz recommends the oil be changed on your vehicle every 10,000 miles or year, depending on what comes first.* If you need your oil topped off, oil changed, or potentially need to repair an oil leak, our Service Department can help you drive confidently this winter season. Coolant No matter the time of year, your Mercedes-Benz vehicle needs coolant in order to properly cool itself down. Lack of coolant can lead to head gasket damage, engine block damage, or even seizing the engine itself. Stop into our Mercedes-Benz Service Center near Huntington Station, NY today to have your coolant level checked and adjusted. You do not want to get heated over an overheating vehicle! Wipers While windshield wipers may seem so simple, they are so important to driving safely. Without properly functioning windshield wipers, it would be very hard to see the road ahead of you when the weather turns sour. Make sure your wipers are in proper working condition and not streaking across the windshield. If you're in need of new genuine Mercedes-Benz wipers, stop into our Parts Department and have your wipers professionally installed in our Service Drive. You'll be in and out in no time!

In the automotive world there have been many well-known rivalries between brands. One of which of course, is Mercedes-Benz vs. BMW. Both brands have been pioneers in the luxury vehicle industry for years, especially with their luxury SUV offerings, the BMW X5 and the Mercedes-Benz GLE. These two models have been around for over a decade, and pioneered the luxury SUV segment back when the Mercedes-Benz GLE was formerly known as the Mercedes-Benz ML. With both models being re-done in the past year, Motor Trend decided to take a look at the two rivals side by side and compare the two, and we think this will help our Huntington and Northport drivers that are currently shopping for their next luxury SUV!Mercedes-Benz was among the first to produce a luxury SUV when it introduced the original M-Class for the 1998 model year. Fast-forward to today: Mercedes-Benz has introduced the current GLE-Class that is still a pioneer in technology and luxury, featuring the newest infotainment system, the Mercedes-Benz User Experience also known as MBUX. With MBUX, you can utilize casual voice commands just by saying, "Hey Mercedes!" similar to Amazon Alexa, Apple's Siri, and other smart technology systems. The BMW X5 has been around for nearly as long as the Mercedes-Benz GLE.  BMW's latest iDrive system also has an assistant feature just like MBUX. In Motor Trend's comparison, they compared a 2020 BMW X5 xDrive40i with a 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC. The 2020 BMW X5 xDrive40i starts at $61,695 and Motor Trend's test vehicle was priced at $73,980, while the 2020 GLE 450 starts at $62,145 and their test vehicle was priced at $84,640. Overall, Motor Trend deemed the BMW X5 earned second place, while the Mercedes-Benz GLE was the champion in this test.The difference in driving was very noticeable to Motor Trend between the two similarly equipped SUVs. Motor Trend stated, "The X5 is sure-footed on the road, but its disconnected nature makes it feel like you're behind the wheel of a robot. "Steering is quick and linear, but it doesn't provide the feel or feedback one would expect from a classic BMW," features editor Christian Seabaugh said. "It's missing that organic sensibility that the Mercedes somehow captures."Meanwhile, the GLE wowed Motor Trend with it's performance and driving abilities. Motor Trend had this to say about the GLE, "On the road, the GLE 450 continues to rise above its rivals. For its size, it handles better than you'd expect, especially when equipped one of the two available air suspension options. It goes down the road in a predictable, controlled manner thanks to its excellent body control, superior chassis calibration, and communicative steering. Mercedes' 3.0-liter turbo I-6, which features a 48-volt mild hybrid system, provides plenty of power and easily moves the GLE 450. With the integrated starter generator assisting the engine, you get smooth power delivery and a wide torque band. The nine-speed automatic transmission shifts quickly and decisively. Even when you suddenly mat the accelerator to pass slow-moving traffic, the gearbox gives you the right gear and puts the engine in its powerband." The voice commands available in the MBUX system were appreciated by Motor Trend testers, as well as the touch screen controls. These two methods of navigating the infotainment system were found to be the most effective and straightforward. While BMW's iDrive system received many updates, they still did not find it to be up to par with Mercedes-Benz. Motor Trend stated, "In typical German fashion, many functions are buried in submenus, and this partially negates the benefits of the responsive touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay, which requires a yearly subscription fee after a year of ownership, didn't work smoothly and kept cutting out. Detroit editor Alisa Priddle complained that instead of embracing connectivity, BMW is fighting it by making it hard to pair your mobile devices with its vehicles." It's important to note that Mercedes-Benz offers Smartphone Integration through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard in the GLE, and with no yearly subscription fee.In the end, Motor Trend has dubbed Mercedes-Benz the winner of the rivalry between the two luxury SUVs. They state at the end of their article, "The attention to detail is impeccable, and the materials chosen for the interior are appropriately luxurious. As a result, the GLE 450 exudes a truly premium aura. You see and feel where that extra $10,000 you spent went the moment you get in the vehicle. The GLE 450's better-balanced chassis makes it easy to drive, the spacious cabin provides everyday practicality, and the spiffy appointments add a level of panache and sophistication missing in the X5. For those reasons, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 takes the win."Now that you've read about the two SUVs and what Motor Trend thinks of them, stop into Mercedes-Benz of Huntington today and see the Mercedes-Benz GLE for yourself!

Mercedes-Benz has always known to provide the best of the best. After all, their mantra is "The Best or Nothing". They have also been a pioneer in safety technology for many years. Therefore, it is not surprise that the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE has earned a TOP SAFETY PICK + award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety! To qualify for a 2019 TOP SAFETY PICK + award, a vehicle must earn good ratings in the driver-side small overlap front, passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraint tests. It also needs an advanced or superior rating for front crash prevention and a good headlight rating. The redesigned GLE earned good ratings in all six of the crash evaluation, which is the highest safety award a vehicle can earn.This Mercedes-Benz SUV is equipped with a standard front crash prevention system and is also available with an optional system. Both systems also earn credit for their forward collision warning components, which meet the criteria set by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.The GLE-Class earns a good headlight rating for its available curve-adaptive LED projector headlights with high-beam assist. High-beam assist is a system that automatically switches between high beams and low beams, depending on the presence of other vehicles. This isn't the first time the GLE has been commended for it's safety. The 2019 GLE was previously announced as a 2019 TOP SAFETY PICK + award winner, along with the E-Class Sedan, the GLC SUV, as well as the C-Class Sedan. No matter what, you can feel safe and secure in a Mercedes-Benz, as well as feel luxurious and in-style. You truly get the best of both worlds from a Mercedes-Benz vehicle.

As we are mid-way into October, we thought we'd provide a friendly reminder about October being Fall Car Care Month, as well as the importance of taking care of regular Mercedes-Benz maintenance to keep your vehicle running at it's best. As we go into the fall and ease into colder weather, the fall season is a perfect time to catch up on your vehicle care. There are many things you can do during Fall Car Care Month, as well as beyond the month of October to give your beloved Mercedes-Benz some TLC. Here are some great car care tips from your local Huntington area Mercedes-Benz Service Center near Huntington Station, NY! Check the battery As the weather starts to get cooler, many older batteries tend to start to lose charge. The last thing you would want is to be stuck in the cold with a dead battery after doing some shopping at the Walt Whitman Shops in Huntington Station, or getting ready for your morning commute! That is why Fall Car Care Month is the perfect time to get your battery inspected, and if needed replace the battery for the new season. Check wipers Being able to see is just as important as being seen. With a new season, it is always good to look into whether or not your wiper blades need replacing, especially with all of the rain we have been having lately in the East Northport and Commack area. If you feel like your windshield wipers are streaking, making chattering noise, or if they have visible signs of wear, now is the time to replace the wiper blades. Luckily our Mercedes-Benz Parts Center carries genuine Mercedes-Benz Wiper Blades you can purchase during your next Service A or Service B. Check the fluids Keeping your fluids topped off and full is important during any time of the year, but it’s a great idea to check your vehicle’s fluids during Fall Car Care Month and have whatever fluids are diminished topped off. Also, if you feel that your fluids are constantly running low, it might be a good idea to get the vehicle inspected for any leaks before the winter begins. Drive right into our indoor climate controlled Service Drive and have one of our Service Drive Attendants top off your fluids for you, as well as adjust your tire pressure and have you on your way through the streets of Dix Hills and Greenlawn. Check the heating and defrosting system Unfortunately, summer cannot last forever and soon we will have to start cranking up the heat in both our homes, as well as our vehicles. Therefore, now is a good time to get your heating and defrosting system checked and if needed do any repairs. That way you can stay toasty and warm when the cold weather sets in! Check the tires Going into the new season, it’s important to go in with as much traction as possible! That’s why you should check your tires for any tread loss or wear that could be problematic later on. While the fall has milder weather, you are going to want to put your “best tire forward” for the icy winter season! Shop for tires from the comfort of your own home using our online tire center, to find tires that fit your specific vehicle.   Fall Car Care Month is a great time for motorists in the Huntington and Long Island area to make sure their vehicles are in great condition for the new season. We here at Mercedes-Benz of Huntington understand that, and we are ready to help with whatever fall care or maintenance you desire! Our friendly staff are all ready to provide you with our award-winning customer service, and ensure you and your vehicle are well taken care of. Take advantage of our Fall Car Care Month Service Specials, as well as our Parts Specials while they last! Give us a call at 631-549-2325 or make an appointment online with our Service Department! We look forward to assisting you!

The Mercedes-Benz GLS has always set the bar for luxury SUVS, being one of the flagships in the Mercedes-Benz lineup alongside the G-Class and the S-Class. With it's spaciousness and third row seating, advanced technology you would only expect from a Mercedes-Benz, as well as an impeccable amount of style and luxury, the GLS is a full-size SUV all the other SUVs out there wish they can be. For the model year 2020, the GLS is back and better than ever. Year after year, the GLS has continued to grow and evolve, having originally been the Mercedes-Benz GL. For the year 2020, the GLS is the best one yet. Highlights of the 2020 GLS Being a top-of-the-line SUV, means the GLS will have top-of-the-line performance. At release, you will have the option of either the GLS 450 or GLS 560. The GLS 450 comes equipped with a 3.0L V6 turbocharged engine that gets 362 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. If you choose the GLS 560, you’ll get an impressive 483 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Both vehicles come with available 4MATIC® all wheel drive as well as EQ Boost, which can add an additional 21 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The 2020 GLS also features the all-new E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL, which is an intelligent suspension that creates a stable ride in any conditions. Based on the AIRMATIC suspension system, E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL individually controls spring and damping forces at each wheel, suppressing rolling, pitching and lifting movements. Therefore, you can drive on any road ahead of you with confidence and comfort. Another all new feature that will be coming with the 2020 GLS is the all-new Carwash function. With the push of a button, the GLS folds in the exterior mirrors, closes all windows and sunroof, switches off rain-sensing wipers, switches the climate control to air-recirculation mode, moves the suspension to the highest setting, and turns on a 360 degree camera to aid the driver entering the car wash. Clearly, the 2020 GLS is ahead of it's time.  The interior of the 2020 GLS is simply where it's at. Similar to the new A-Class and the new 2020 GLE, the 2020 GLS will feature the Mercedes-Benz User Experience, also known as MBUX. With the simple phrase, "Hey Mercedes", you can have the GLS navigate you to your favorite restaurants in Huntington Village, make the climate control cooler, and more! The GLS takes MBUX a step forward with the optional Executive Rear Seat Package. With this package, rear seat passengers get a separate tablet for controlling all of the MBUX comfort and entertainment functions from the rear seats, that way everyone can enjoy what MBUX has to offer! The 2020 GLS will also be updated to include features we have all come to know and love in models such as the E-Class Sedan and the CLS 4-door-coupe, such as 64-color ambient lighting, ENERGIZING® Comfort control, LED intelligent light system, and more. For the first time ever in the GLS, you will also have the option of either a three-seat rear bench seat or two luxury individual seats with armrests in the second row, with either combination being comfortable and luxurious to the highest degree. Release Date for the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS According to Mercedes-Benz USA, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS will be set to arrive at Mercedes-Benz dealers by the end of this year. We can hardly wait till it arrives at our Mercedes-Benz dealership near Northport, NY!

The G-Class started off as a military vehicle and hasn't changed much in design or looks since it's debut in 1979. While still retaining it's military roots in design, the G-Wagon has become a status symbol driving around streets of affluent areas from New York, all the way to Los Angeles.The 2019 model year brings many changes to the G-Wagon while still retaining the roots everyone knows and loves. Automobile Magazine reports, "For the 2019 model year, Mercedes-Benz finally unveiled a true, new G-Class—and fixed everything that needed fixing. Now there’s generous width up front. The ride is hugely improved. A new nine-speed automatic mates with a more powerful twin-turbo V-8. Beautiful digital displays now gleam in the instrument panel. There’s even 64-color LED mood lighting so you can bask in the nightclub ambiance even if the doorman won’t let you in. Yet the essential “G stuff”—the burly look, the off-road prowess, the tanklike build quality, even the push-button door handles—remains essentially the same. " After Automobile Magazine kept an AMG G 63 for a week of joyriding, they had to simply say this, "The G63—and I mean this in the best way—is freaking nuts." Like every other Mercedes-AMG vehicle, the AMG G 63 features an engine that is hand-built by a single AMG engine-builder from start to finish, autograph and all. Hence the term, "One Man. One Engine" that has been coined by Mercedes-AMG.Clearly the G-Wagon is much more than an SUV, and we cannot agree more with Automobile Magazine. It has the performance, power, and style of something much bigger than an SUV. Most importantly, it leaves lasting impressions on anyone who drives the G-Class, or anyone who even looks at it. Automobile Magazine finished off their report on the AMG G 63 by saying, "When I got home, I didn’t want to park the G63. I wanted to hang it on my wall.".  It's safe to say this is the impression many others get of the G-Wagon.   Interested in checking out the AMG G 63 for yourself?
