Since the groundbreaking launch of the 1998 M Class, Mercedes-Benz continues to refine this luxury SUV with styling touches that boldly redefine the exterior and interior from all angles. The front bumper incorporates a wide air dam and integrated fog lamps. Clear, projector-lens headlamps and tail lamps reinforce its striking elegance. Side mirrors feature integrated auxiliary turn signals that are highly visible to other drivers. The warm and richly inviting interior is designed for both ergonomics and style. High-quality materials like burl walnut wood enhance the interior appearance, while a redesigned center console offers more intuitive controls than ever before. A spacious 81.2 cubic feet of cargo space speaks volumes about the M Class carrying capacity. The M Class also is the ultimate luxury vehicle with optional third row seating and a climate control system that automatically regulates temperature and airflow while separate controls and vents ensure maximum front and rear passenger comfort. The MCS system with optional DVD navigation, standard on the ML500, helps you get where you’re going with maximum convenience. Plus, a host of standard convenience features such as one-touch power windows, five cup holders, and 12-volt power outlets located around the vehicle, ensure optimal comfort for you and your passengers.
