Powered by a 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 producing 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, the GLK 350 delivers smooth, linear power without relying on turbocharging. The engine is paired with Mercedes-Benz's 7-speed automatic transmission, providing relaxed cruising while keeping the V6 responsive when more acceleration is called for.
Mercedes-Benz's 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system gives the GLK confident traction throughout changing road and weather conditions, making it particularly well suited to year-round driving. This example is also equipped from the factory with the Sport Suspension and Exterior Sport Package, giving it a more planted, road-focused character than the standard GLK.
The result is a compact SUV that feels distinctly Mercedes-Benz: composed and comfortable in everyday driving, but with enough naturally aspirated V6 power and chassis control to remain engaging when the road opens up.
Introduced as Mercedes-Benz's compact luxury SUV, the first-generation GLK combined the upright proportions and utility of an SUV with a chassis designed primarily around on-road comfort and handling. Mercedes-Benz positioned the GLK as a more compact alternative within its SUV lineup, with its distinctive squared-off styling, elevated seating position and strong all-around visibility.
The GLK 350 4MATIC paired the 3.5L V6 with permanent all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic transmission, giving it a strong blend of everyday usability, all-weather capability and highway refinement.
Finished in Tenorite Grey Metallic with the Exterior Sport Package and 20-inch wheels, this example presents the GLK in one of its sportier factory configurations while remaining completely stock.
