Like its smaller sibling the GLE, the GLS gets a facelift but also improved features and better software.
already was a handsome and powerful luxury SUV with a very generous interior design. This three-row wasn't perfect—the infotainment could be confusing to use, and the E-Active Body Control system's ride didn't really deliver greater comfort or enhanced control as you'd expect it to, but it's a well-packaged mover for well-heeled families. For 2024, it seems Mercedes listened and promised to make those little things better.
It also appears that Mercedes has removed the"GLS" and"4MATIC" badging from the lift gate, but opted to retain the chrome trim and star emblem as well as the dual polished exhaust tips coming out from under the rear valance.The grille's new gloss-black surround makes it appear much larger than before, but its outer boundary is the same as on the 2023 model.
, but Mercedes promises the experience will be even better. Seven people can still fit in the cabin, though that cabin now boasts the new leather colorways of Catalana Beige and Bahia Brown. The trim has also been revised with high-gloss Brown Linden Wood, but the oexclusive Manufaktur Piano Lacquer Flowing Lines trim once exclusive to the Maybach GLS600 is now optional for the regular GLS.
The GLS's dashboard-spanning display returns for 2024 with minor appearance changes, plus a new"Off-Road Mode." This gives the driver information such as gradient, lateral inclination, compass, and steering angle but also utilizes the 360-degree-view camera to create a"transparent hood" function. The central display shows a virtual view of the underside of the nose of the GLS, allowing the driver to spot obstacles before hitting them, as if the hood were"invisible.
As a final bid to improve its SUV-ness, the 2024 GLS drivetrain receives some upgrades, too. New gear ratios enable the towing capacity to increase to 7,716 pounds with a tongue weight of up to 309 pounds. The GLS also comes with Trailer Maneuvering Assist and an updated"Trailer" menu in the infotainment display.
