When the GL-Class first debuted back in 2006, it was designed to give Mercedes-Benz a formidable contender that could take on full-size rivals such as the Cadillac Escalade and the Infiniti QX56. For buyers who want the perfect mix of luxury, utility, and fuel economy, though, Mercedes-Benz one-upped the competition with the diesel-powered GL350 BlueTEC.
Performance comes from a 3-liter turbodiesel V6 that's good for a solid 240 horsepower and delivers equally impressive fuel economy figures with 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.
