The all-new 2007 GL 450 has arrived, and a more conspicuous entrance has never been made. It gives you all the performance, luxury and safety you expect from a Mercedes-Benz and delivers them in the form of our very first full-size SUV.   That means you get ample seating for seven adults and a massive  2,300 litres of cargo space. It also means you get an all-new  335-horsepower V-8 engine, permanent 4MATIC all-wheel drive, our 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission, and our AIRMATIC air suspension. Add a unique unibody construction, the only one in its class, and its clear that the GL-Class is built for one  purpose: to own the road.
