Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Sitting atop the Mercedes-Benz SUV hierarchy is the spacious and indisputably luxurious GLS-Class. It's all new for 2020 and it has big shoes to fill—we've named the outgoing GLS-Class to our 10Best Trucks and SUVs list for three straight years—but our first impressions of this new big Benz are very good.

Pros
Tech-rich cabin, spacious in all three rows, refined powertrains.

Cons
Anonymous styling, fussy infotainment system, heavily optioned models carry high price tags

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is a three-row crossover SUV that redefines luxurious family transport.

Pros

Posh interior
Strong turbocharged engines
Impressive dynamics
AMG, Maybach editions sure to come

Cons
Hefty price
Hefty curb weight
Hefty fuel consumption
Occasional cheap touch

New styling in line with other Mercedes SUVs.Powerful mild hybrid powertrains.Standard adjustable air suspension.All-new third GLS generation launched for 2020.

Pros
MBUX infotainment is outstanding
Tops in comfort and easily seats adults in all three rows
Flexible cargo capacity
Responsive powertrains feel like driving a smaller SUV

Cons
Not as off-road-worthy as some rugged competitors
Somewhat vague steering with large wheels and thin tires
MBUX has a steep learning curve

The QX80 receives an upgraded infotainment system for 2020 that features two displays, stacked one on top of the other like the systems found in much of the rest of the Infiniti lineup. The top screen is an 8.0-inch unit while the lower one is a 7.0-inch one; Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability are now both standard, and the gauge cluster now sports a new 7.0-inch color trip-computer display. Lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, and rear automated emergency braking are all now standard, as is a rear-door alert that sounds a reminder to check the rear seat upon reaching your destination.

Pros
Bold exterior styling,
gutsy V-8 engine,
luxury-lined interior.

Cons
Expensive option packages,
Nissan Armada offers similar luxury for less money.

Cons
Interior technology and design lag behind luxury competition
Engine is thirstier than others in the class
Optional 22-inch wheels can make for a poor ride
