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.

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!

2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS vs. 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS is a full-size luxury SUV that offers an ample three rows of seating and enough space to comfortably seat up to seven persons. It is one of the top contenders for the top spot among large luxury SUVs and it is easy to believe that it can take down its rivals, fair and square. Like the new GLS, the 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is also a highly-capable luxury SUV. It boasts of exceptional performance both on and off road. The classic Land Rover Range Rover has a stately, dignified look. The Rover Sport, on the other hand, still looks as subdued but with the addition of daring features. Design & Style It is difficult to imagine a Mercedes-Benz without thinking of the sexy silhouettes that most cars by this brand are gifted with. The GLS is a polar opposite, style-wise, as it is big, bulky, and really muscular. But even with massive size, the brand was able to inject the same level of sophistication, especially in the cabin. The interior is as premium as any Mercedes-Benz. The subtle mix of leather, wood, and metal details contribute to having a lush interior that is very impressive. The Rover Sport is not the biggest SUV from Land Rover. Its size, however, is one of its strengths as it greatly complements the current styling cues. The lower stance added to the sporty vibe that it wants to evoke. It has clean lines and a floating roof that looks intriguing. Technology & Safety The GLS has an infotainment system that runs with the new COMAND® system. There are plenty of optional features to make each ride as fun and as entertaining as it can be. The 7-inch central display is standard but it can be upgraded for an 8-inch touchscreen device. With a car its size, active safety features are a must. The GLS may have a blind-spot monitoring and a lane-keeping assist that are useful along with its automated parallel parking system. The infotainment system of the Rover Sport is sharp and looks futuristic but it does tend to slow down and get a bit complicated. This can be an issue since it can pose a problem when used while on the go. Performance The base engine of the GLS is a turbocharged V6 for up to 362 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. While this power is enough to take the GLS and its haul anywhere, the AMG® GLS 63 has an ultra-powerful V8 engine for a massive 577 hp and 561 lb-ft of torque. The Rover Sport has six trim levels with the base model running on a V6 engine for up to 340 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. The Bottom Line The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS is a robust full-size luxury SUV. While the 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is a capable vehicle, the GLS is much better as it has a stronger engine that really took its role as a luxury vehicle with its premium cabin fixtures. Ready to Schedule a 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS Test Drive Today? If you are interested in buying the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS, let Mercedes-Benz of Huntington deliver the best deal in town for you.

2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2019 Jeep Gladiator 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA vs. 2019 Jeep Gladiator The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA is the brand’s smallest crossover vehicle. This year’s model has received very few updates but there should be major changes in the next version since its brothers, the A-Class and CLA-Class have been revamped. Nonetheless, the GLA is a performance-oriented small car that offers both practicality and style. Jeep is easily the most popular brand when you think about vehicles that can drive on rocky trails but still maintain a stylish aura. The 2019 Jeep Gladiator is an off-road vehicle but can easily blend well around town. Design & Style The GLA-Class is basically a sexy CLA that has a hatchback/wagon body shape. There are only minor design changes for this year, like new colors and a shuffling of the trim packages. It has a rakish nose and wide-set LED taillights. The Gladiator looks very much alike with the Jeep Wrangler. The major difference is the pick-up bed that is attached at the rear. The rugged exterior is almost promising to be adventure-ready at all times. As for its cabin, there are new features such as new rear seats that come in either cloth or leather. Technology & Safety Every trim level of the GLA is fitted with advanced infotainment technology. The Mbrace Connect telematics services are included as a free trial for five years. There are also plenty of add-ons available like the satellite radio, voice-controlled navigation, and the high-end Harman Kardon audio system. Even the tech features of the Gladiator follows the rugged theme. it can be fitted with a forward-facing off-road camera as well as portable wireless speakers. Performance The GLA has a performance-optimized engine that delivers up to 208 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The turbocharged engine provides sharp handling even on elevated grounds. It has nicely-weighted steering that is precise and linear. The steering also feels light and there is only a little tugging when driving. While the GLA has more options for a powerful engine at up to 375 hp, the Gladiator comes in only one engine. It has a V6 3.6-liter engine for 285 hp. More than a powerful engine, the Gladiator can stabilize itself and slow down because of the longer design of its wheelbase. The Bottom Line The 2019 Jeep Gladiator may be known for being a rugged vehicle but it lacks the finesse that the GLA has. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA has a generous set of features and looks premium because of its sleek design. It is a great choice if you are looking for a car that also has off-road specific functions apart from looking good on the road. Ready to Schedule a 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA Test Drive Today? If you are interested in buying the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA, let Mercedes-Benz of Huntington deliver the best deal in town for you. We serve customers throughout the state and its surrounding regions.

2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2019 BMW X1 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA vs. 2019 BMW X1 BMW X1 is one of the highest-rated luxury SUVs in the industry, offering well-rounded performance and potent acceleration, but when it comes to competing with the overall specification, Mercedes-Benz GLA may have an edge. Let us do a comparison for better understanding. Design & Style The 2019 BMW X1 is a 5-seater model with supportive and comfortable front seats. The sound insulation is very poor, since the road noise can come into the cabin. The interior gets the attention for its soft-touch dashboard and premium styling, but some reviewers feel it could have been more elegant and classier. There’s nothing much to talk about trunk space. The 2019 GLA is seated five with ample headroom and legroom across both the rows. You get a good driving position and great outside visibility, while the passengers can enjoy a comfortable ride even on long trips. The interior is replete with quality materials and even the plastic surfaces look posh. The strong build quality is quite evident the moment you jump inside. Technology & Safety The 2019 BMW X1 comes standard with an iDrive infotainment system featuring voice control, navigation, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth®, HD radio and 7 speakers. You can use the rotary dial or touch screen to control the system. It also has a touchpad for handwriting recognition. There are plenty of standard safety features including a rearview camera, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, adaptive cruise controls, pedestrian detection, forward collision warning and a rearview camera. The 2019 GLA comes equipped with COMAND® infotainment system, and most of its functionality is controlled by a rotary dial on the center console. You can quickly get used to the system, as the menu layout is pretty straightforward. Other standard features include USB ports, *Bluetooth®, HD radio, push-button start and automatic climate control. Speaking of safety features, you have automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning and a rearview camera. Performance In terms of performance, there’s only one option with the 2019 BMW X1 powered by a 228-HP turbocharged 2-liter engine coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The engine offers plenty of power and acceleration but is only good for daily commutes. If you are a spirited driver, you need to opt for the 2019 Mercedes GLA 250 SUV which offers great acceleration right from the start. The Bottom Line The 2019 GLA should certainly be on your shortlist of luxury subcompact cars. It offers a comfortable ride, tight handling and balanced performance, along with abundant passenger space and high safety ratings. BMW X1 is also a good choice, but the road and wind noise seeping inside the cabin is a real drawback for a luxury car. Ready to Schedule a 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA Test Drive Today? If you are interested in buying the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA, let Mercedes-Benz of Huntington deliver the best deal in town for you. We serve customers throughout the state and its surrounding regions.

2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA 2019 Mini Cooper 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA vs. 2019 Mini Cooper The 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA is an efficient performer and can easily outclass other small cars. It received several improvements throughout the years. These days, the CLA is known to entice buyers with its latest tech and refined performance. The 2019 Mini Cooper is the typical Mini with its distinct styling. Only a light refresh was added for this year if only to upgrade its small and classy stature. Design & Style The CLA is a shapely sedan. Its diamond-block grille bears the iconic badge of the brand. Its sexy silhouette is balanced by its swoopy design. The interior is slightly showing its age but the rendition is still sophisticated especially with the uncluttered cabin layout. Cooper’s design is mostly based on nostalgia. Although there are design changes over the years, it is still cartoonish. It seems to be committed to achieving a retro design that looks fun and appealing. It follows a circular theme on its interior with a light ring on the infotainment screen and toggle switches for the accessories. Technology & Safety A pair of digital displays sit on the CLA’s dashboard for its infotainment. It has the COMAND® system but it can be switched for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It can also work with the latest Me Connect system to access various automated remote features. Most of the active safety features are optional but it does come with standard driver aids too. The standard infotainment system across all trims of the Cooper comes with a 6.5-inch display. The navigation package has an option for an 8.8-inch screen that is useful for viewing real-time traffic updates. It can also be equipped with an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot. The active safety equipment, however, is all expensive additions. It also scores low on different safety tests. Performance There are two variants for the CLA’s engine. One can get up to 208 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque and the other one can produce as much as 375 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. You are basically given the choice to pick which kind of performance you would like for the CLA. Both engines, however, can deliver an effortless acceleration and the driver will enjoy the quick-shifting transmission. For the Cooper, it can have either a 134-hp engine or the sportier 189-hp engine. Front-wheel drive is a standard for both engine types. Although it is fun to drive, the Cooper has a go-kart handling and may deliver a harsh ride when driven on rough road conditions. The Bottom Line The 2019 Mini Cooper is a cute vehicle, no question about that. Its nostalgic appeal made a lot of fans but if you are after a good ride, the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA is the one to have. The latest CLA is sexy to look at but it has a monstrous performance when compared against Cooper. Ready to Schedule a 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA Test Drive Today? If you are interested in buying the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA, let Mercedes-Benz of Huntington deliver the best deal in town for you. We serve customers throughout the state and its surrounding regions.

2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2019 Volkswagen Beetle 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class vs. 2019 Volkswagen Beetle The sedans from before have evolved so much and have comfortably become relevant to the vehicle preferences of this generation. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class is a great example of this evolution. The latest A-Class excels in being a modern sedan that is well-loved and accepted by a lot of people. While the A-Class pushed sedans back to the limelight, the original people’s car is approaching its end. The 2019 Volkswagen Beetle is said to be on its final production and all that will be left are the fondest memories that are brought about by its retro look. Design & Style The A-Class sports the traditional sedan silhouette. For this year, it is given a long hood and slim headlights in order to make it look relevant and a bit sporty. The subtle design changes on the exterior are highlighted by the prominent Mercedes-Benz badge at the front. The cabin, on the other hand, remains attractive especially with the addition of ambient lighting. The most distinctive feature of the Beetle is its iconic shape that is instantly recognizable. The 2019 version is more business-like than the classic Bug and Beetle. Although it is endearing, it is admittedly plain and boring to look at. Even the interior has held on to the past with its last-generation materials. Technology & Safety The digital dashboard of the MBUX on the new A-Class has dazzling graphics and a stylish appearance. It has an advanced voice-recognition system that runs along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Everything in the audio and navigation system is customizable. The driver aids are also modern and active safety features come as worthy upgrades. Although it is very easy to use, the infotainment features of the Beetle are far from advanced. It does have the latest smartphone integration but only on higher trims. The rearview camera, rear cross-traffic alert, and blind-spot monitoring are standard driver aids. Performance The A-Class has a 188 hp engine for sharp road performance. It may not have big power specs but the A-Class does have a capable chassis that is responsive and respectably quick. The brake pedal is not jumpy and it is immediately intuitive. The Beetle has a 2.0-liter engine that is good for up to 174 hp. It allows strong acceleration but deceleration may take a lot of effort. This is mainly because the brakes are not too quick in giving a response. The Bottom Line The 2019 Volkswagen Beetle has that loveable classic look that most people found charming. All in all, it lacks the qualities that can help it take down the 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class. The Beetle sadly held on to its classic roots, especially on its technology. Although it improved its performance, it is not enough as the A-Class is a well-rounded vehicle that excels not only in performance but also in the tech department.

2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class vs. 2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata The 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class is an aerodynamically efficient vehicle that is the latest sedan version among the fourth-generation A-Class. It is a city-sized four-door car that is well-equipped with technology and is a perfect mix of performance and beauty. The 2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata is a long-running staple from the brand. This small car weathered more than two decades of staying true to its roots. It successfully outlived the fads among subcompact cars and focused on giving a fun drive. Design & Style The all-new A-Class has an attractive silhouette that is reminiscent of its sedan roots. This year’s model has a sporty appeal thanks to the short front and rear overhangs. The hood is also a bit longer but the deck has shorter proportions. There are also wheel arches that look good especially with 19-inch wheels. Its cabin boasts of sophistication in both material quality and appearance. The MX-5 has a revolutionary design that aims to make the car look confident in any weather condition. Its 16-inch alloy wheels go well with the exterior and they add an assurance that the car can be driven anywhere. The well-crafted interior does not feel claustrophobic even if the cabin is small. Technology & Safety The A-Class has the MBUX system for infotainment. It has straightforward controls and is carefully arranged to complement the ambient interior lighting. There are plenty of both standard and optional driver aids such as lane-keeping assist, automated emergency braking system, and more. For the MX-5, more attention was placed on getting advanced connectivity and safety features. It is noticeable, though, that they settled on Bluetooth® technology instead of the latest smartphone integrations. It has optional upgrades for modern driver aids like the forward-collision warning system. Performance The 2.0-liter engine under the A-Class’ hood delivers 188 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque. The car is both responsive and intuitive to drive, thanks to its standard front-wheel drive train. The road grip is also excellent. The MX-5 Miata, on the other hand, has up to 151lb-ft of torque and 181 hp from its 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine. It requires a light steering effort that is both precise and predictable. The Bottom Line As a subcompact vehicle, the 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class is a stunning winner against the 2019 MX-5 Miata. If you are looking for sophistication, advanced technology, and impressive performance, then you don’t have to look elsewhere than the A-Class. The MX-5 looks nice but not as premium in appearance compared to the A-Class. It also lacks enough technology to rival the MBUX. In terms of performance, the A-Class also has a stronger engine and is more confident-inspiring than the MX-5. Ready to Schedule a 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Test Drive Today?

As the weather starts to cool down and the leaves start to change here on Long Island, we can't help but start to prepare for the upcoming winter. Before we know it, snow, ice, and cold weather will be here just as fast as the winter holiday season! One question that comes up when preparing for the winter is, "When should I put snow tires on my vehicle?" The best time to put your snow tires on is around or after Thanksgiving time. Around that time, as you start to prepare for the winter time, and for the holidays, be sure to add "Install Winter Tires" to your to-do checklist and have the following benefits when winter weather does arrive: Stronger road grip in snowy conditions Reliable braking A break for your vehicle’s all season tires Greater tire replacement and service savings down the road Should I Put Winter Tires or All-Season Tires on My Mercedes-Benz? All season tires are designed for a composed ride and fuel-efficiency; they can perform in all sorts of conditions, but they are prime in the spring and summer. That is not to say that all-season tires will leave you stuck. However, if you are looking for the best performance in snowy and icy conditions, winter tires are the way to go. Winter tires are intended primarily for snowy weather, and include these unique qualities: Rigid yet flexible tread rubber for better traction Deep tread depths to prevent snow accumulation More biting edges for improved grip in icy conditions Best Winter Tires For Mercedes-Benz Vehicles Tire shopping can be daunting and time-consuming. That is why we have our online tire center, which helps you pinpoint exactly what tires you want for your vehicle.
