Mercedes GL-Class Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2006–2009)

Mercedes GL-Class Engines and Transmissions

A Mercedes GL-Class engine in this generation is paired with an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, giving you a drivetrain suited to a large five-door SUV. The GL420CDI 4.0 AT is a diesel example; the GL450 4.7 AT is gasoline. Those versions illustrate the range, not every powertrain offered.

Mercedes GL-Class Trims and Equipment

Mercedes GL-Class trim levels sit on a technical version rather than changing its core drivetrain. For the GL450 4.7 AT, equipment configurations named 450 and Standart apply to that gasoline automatic, all-wheel-drive SUV 5-doors layout. You compare those trims for equipment, not for a different engine or transmission.
