Right for the times, starting with 0–60.
There’s nothing downsized about its performance.
The GLK 350 may be the smallest Mercedes-Benz SUV, but driving it makes a super-sized impression. Quickly.
A 268-hp 3.5-liter V-6 revs eagerly and delivers the torque-rich response you need — anytime you demand it. Twin chrome exhaust tips punctuate a true dual exhaust
system, for the free-breathing power to conquer steep hills or hit 60 mph in a mere 6.5 seconds.

Standard 19" — or optional 20" — wheels team up with a 4-wheel

all-wheel drive. In the GLK-Class, good times are always in season.

Upgrade the largest standard wheels in its class to

sculpted lower bodywork and LED Daytime Running Lamps.

Optional 4

all-wheel drive integrates our 4-wheel

if that’s only one wheel.

offers sporty handling on dry roads, too.

No SUV in its class offers more gear ranges than
the GLK’s standard 7-speed automatic. Driver-adaptive logic
matches its shift points to your driving style, or take charge
with manual-style Touch Shift control. Sport and Economy
modes let you emphasize performance or fuel-efficiency.
