“The GLS is Mercedes' answer to premium three-row SUV ambitions, delivering a potent 376bhp powertrain with impressive 750Nm torque and genuinely sophisticated in-cabin tech. At ₹127.9 lakh, it commands respect through a composed ride, seven-seat flexibility, and the star badge cachet—though running costs and real-world efficiency temper the value story.
