Mercedes-Benz has launched the new GL-class.

Initially, the new GL-class will be imported as completely built units. CKD assembly will start in September. The model launched here is the GL 350 CDI powered by a 2987cc turbo-common rail diesel motor which is good for 255bhp and 63.2kgm of torque mated to a 7-speed G-Tronic automatic gearbox. The first 100 units will come as GL Launch Edition with a standard AMG body kit. The GL comes equipped with tech features such as Active Park Assist, Cross Wind Assist and a 360-degree camera.

The GL is priced at Rs 77.5 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The other big launches slated for the carmaker are the all-new A-class, expected here on May 30 and a diesel variant of the B-class, likely to arrive here later this year.
