The Mercedes-Benz GLS dimensions provide the space you need for successful trips to Shavano Park, but these key features provide extra support in the form of comfort and convenience:

  • Optional Executive Rear Seating: Don’t need 7-person seating? You can opt for luxurious individual power seats in the second row instead of the standard bench seat, which would bring you down to a 6-person capacity.
  • Flexible Seating Configurations: With the standard second-row bench seat you’ll get 40/20/40-split functionality with EASY ENTRY® technology. The third-row seats offer standard 50/50-split power-folding, creating seamless access for additional cargo.
  • Deluxe Comfort: Even in the baseline GLS trim, heated and ventilated power front seats are standard! MB-Tex® upholstery is also standard, with the option to upgrade to full leather.
  • Smart Cargo Storage: Optimizing the cargo area is made easier with floor-mounted tie-downs, side cargo nets, a grocery bag hook, and a 12-volt power outlet. You’ll never struggle to fish the keys out of your pockets with hands full of groceries, as HANDS-FREE ACCESS® will open the power liftgate hands-free!
