Straight off the plane and onto the breathtaking coastal roads of
Southern Spain鈥攏ot a bad way to tackle the 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA250.
208 hp, and a telltale mountain of empty espresso cups did the heavy
lifting against jetlag; fantastic views and fine weather did the rest.
Mercedes's new pocket ute, we set out to put as many miles under us as
possible. Here are the biggest surprises from the drive. Equipped with
hill descent control and tilt and roll gauges, the 4MATIC-equipped GLA
happily trundled up steep grades and rocky riverbeds. GLA onto the next
obstacle. Variety is the spice of life. 7.1-second 0-60 time, the
2.0-liter turbocharged gas engine is a perfectly respectable mill, but
we enjoyed the torquey diesel a little more. US market will have to
create demand for the diesel powertrain in the aforementioned GLA220
CDI to come stateside. Of course, if it's torque you're looking for,
Mercedes will happily take your money for an AMG-tweaked GLA45.

My new daily driver, a 2009 Mercedes-Benz E350. This is peak MB design
in my opinion. The facelifted W211鈥檚 styling is seriously timeless,
mainly the exterior. It鈥檚 probably my favorite looking MB car. They
got the proportions and styling just right with this generation. And
the sport package on top of it all? That just makes it even better.
Between the W211 E63 AMG and the facelifted W211 E350 with the sport
package, those are some of the most beautiful looking sedans ever made.
My other favorite German sedans of that era, give or take, are the
facelifted E39/E39 M5 and facelifted C7 A6/S6. Congrats OP. Keep her
beautiful. E39. slowly but surely I'm going through the cars you
mentioned. Cars is the largest automotive enthusiast community on the

With the redesigned 2012 Mercedes-Benz M-Class now out in the open, our
thoughts turn to the high-performance variant of the M-Class range, the
ML63 AMG. The styling of the new ML63 AMG will be more of an evolution
than a complete revolution, however, the drivetrain will be completely
new. Telltale signs that this is the AMG variant are the oversized
cross-drilled brakes and dual exhaust tailpipes. Expect a slightly
lowered ride height and a sports tuned suspension as well. If this
still isn't enough, an available performance package should lift output
to a heady 550 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. Drive will be
sent to all four wheels AMG鈥檚 latest SPEEDSHIFT MCT seven-speed
sports transmission. Look out for a debut of the new ML63 AMG at this
September鈥檚 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show or possibly at the Los Angeles
Auto Show in November. First sales should start by the end of the year.
