Used Vehicle Review: Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class, 2010-2016 - Autos.ca
History/Description: Back in 1998, Mercedes helped pioneer the luxury SUV scene with their ML series. Mercedes prefers that you call their GLK an SUV, not a crossover. The GLK launched for 2010 with a blocky and rugged look that flew in the face of more swoopy and wind-swept machines, targeting test drivers of machinery like the Acura RDX, BMW X3 and comparables. The GLK boasted great visibility on account of its square proportions and thin window pillars, generous maneuverability, and a full complement of upscale feature content fitting of the badge. The GLK rode an Agility Control suspension system, which works towards maintenance of a softly-sporty ride character on all surfaces. Note that no control over the AWD system, or suspension system, was possible by the driver. From 2013, the GLK’s 3. 5L V6 gets a power bump to just past 300 horses, and a 2. 1L twin-turbo diesel four-cylinder engine becomes available, in the GLK 250 Bluetec. What Owners Like: Styling, classiness, comfort and the GLK’s upscale cabin are highly rated by owners. Source: www.autos.ca
