There is something about BMWs that remind me of the New York Yankees: They鈥檙e always good if not necessarily the best, their owners can be obnoxious and they can arouse juvenile envy. I am a Cubs fan, after all. Our test model was painted steel gray on the outside and swaddled in auburn brown/black leather on the inside. The high-end vinyl on the upper portion of the dash is smooth and indulgent, and it's underscored by natural wood trim that bands the control areas on all four doors into the center ribbon in the dash. Between the blended texture is ocher ambient lighting that Mercedes-Benz calls solar. It was like tiramisu, except you sit in it. The 60/40 rear seats feature bottoms that fold up so the seat backs can lay flat with the cargo area and create one long flat storage space. It's a nice touch but we had to move the front seats forward despite having only average height to fit the rear seats flat. 620) and a wide berth for plenty of room for four adults.
Five adults fit fine but we can't imagine knees touching in a Mercedes. It seems to be happening all the time in the auto industry. A manufacturer just isn't happy with its vehicles' names, especially when it wants to add new, additional models to the lineup. Mercedes-Benz is the latest to do the ole name switcheroo in advance of this year's auto show season. The abundance of luxury options and fine touches begins to overwhelm at the command center. The control knob in the center console enables free scrolling throughout the multilayered 7-inch screen molded in the dash. There is a top bar for main functions and a bottom bar to dig deeper into the selected function, then the content in the middle of the screen. There is a lot of functionality, hence all the functions, but the best bet is to save your favorites and use the quick access button on the center console pad.
By offering so much, the ML400 muddles even the simplest functions. A big frustration was learning that you had to be in a certain function to use corresponding voice commands. If I wanted to "Call Snoop Dogg," I had to be in the phone section of the screen or say "phone" first to leave the navigation menu, for example. An owner will figure out the shortcuts and find the settings, but it's too layered to be intuitive. After a week of navigating the screen, we still weren't confident in using it. BMW's X5 was much more user friendly. And that brings us to the problem with the ML400. With so many options in the ubiquitous midsize SUV class, where the lines between upscale and top tier trim lines are becoming more and more blurred, there is no margin of error. The interior and handling are clearly Mercedes, but buyers would be overpaying for the tristar in this case. The ML400 refresh is what you'd expect from Mercedes-Benz but there is nothing remarkable about it. We'd take the BMW X5 for the money, or trim up a model without the tristar prestige. Mercedes may be preparing more than just a name change from ML to GLE in 2016, so Mercedes SUV lovers might want to chill till the next episode.
