Overall good car

I got to use a used car from a car reseller in Delhi. It is a very fast and smooth to drive with no hiccups. Pick-up is fantastic and is quick even on comfort mode. The cockpit is unlike any car I have ever seen. The car has tons of options for customization, Rear seat has poor legroom and overall comfort, while the front seats are comfy. The only con I faced was that the car is hard on tires if you like to drive fast sometimes.

Mercedes-Benz GLS review

It gets good fuel economy figures for its size and its available with several strong powertrain the gls high quality cabin has ample space for adults to stretch out (even in th third row).
