2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS Vs. 2019 BMW X7

Achieving anything resembling high performance or luxury in a large SUV is complicated by the secondary demands of the vehicle’s size and segment. A large SUV needs to have sufficient capability for off-road adventures, comfortable seating for three rows of passengers and a profile that offers more style than a minivan. On the performance side, the added weight and size of such a vehicle tends to make 0-60 acceleration more difficult and the added interior space can make handling challenging.

The Mercedes-Benz GLS seamlessly integrates these seemingly-competing qualities, however, and has been a torch-bearer for an automotive brand’s ability to think beyond the physical limitations of the segment. For 2019, the Mercedes-Benz GLS SUV is refined and potent, brimming with power under the hood, style between the bumpers and a lot of luxury for seven passengers inside. Up against the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS in our comparison is the 2019 BMW X7 – BMW’s newest and biggest SUV yet.

Robust and Capable Mercedes-Benz GLS Proves Timeless

The above chart shows that even with all of the R&D time BMW undoubtedly had to build a third-row SUV, they couldn’t make something that matches the incredible power, timeless style and cutting-edge technology of the Mercedes-Benz GLS.

It’s evident when you look at the 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS. You don’t see a typical sporty, luxury crossover. You see something enduring and powerful – a monolith to precision automotive heritage.
