Mercedes Benz M-Class
To join Mercedes’ line-up will be the smart new M-class SUV. The
lines are softer, the eye-like headlights with their LED detailing are
pleasing, and the whole look is less brutish than before. A stylised
cabin with Merc-typical luxury bits make the interiors a comfortable
place to be in. The dash design in particular is a huge improvement over
the staid styling of the old car’s. Ride quality should be a huge
improvement and Merc’s Airmatic air suspension could be offered as an
option to discerning customers with deep pockets. As with the current
car, Mercedes is likely to offer just a single engine – the 3-litre V6
diesel in ML 350 CDI guise. A raft of updates see the engine improve in
both efficiency and power which sees a bump up to 258bhp. Prices are
likely to see a rise too when the car is launched in mid-2012.
