The new M-Class SUV has been overhauled from the ground up. Now the car has become more aerodynamic (air resistance coefficient is only 0.34), more attractive, more similar to Mercedes sedans, while retaining the characteristics and silhouette typical of the M-Class. This Mercedes-Benz has become 150 mm longer than its predecessor. The improvement seems to be felt everywhere - also in the interior and in the quality of the assembly, which the old model was not characterized by. The SUV has a permanent 4Matic all-wheel drive system, a transmission that adapts to the driver's style. The Mercedes-Benz M-Class is a mid-size SUV with good off-road capabilities and stands below the larger G-Class but above the GLK Class. There are five different next-generation M-Class engines from 140 to 285 kW (190 to 388 hp). In addition, the most powerful ML 63 AMG with a 375 kW or 510 hp engine is available. This modern SUV remains one of the most successful cars in the fast-growing SUV market segment. The new M-Class is praised for its power, ride performance, improved quality, but economy and handling could also be better.
