The 2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class debuts in the U.S. as the GL450, powered by a 335-horsepower 4.6-liter V8 with a 7-speed automatic transmission and 4MATIC full-time 4-wheel drive. Four-wheel independent suspension, speed-sensitive power steering and 265/60R18 all-season tires are standard and height-adjustable Airmatic springs with ADS adaptive damping are available as an option.
