Mercedes Benz

The giant crossover from Stuttgart, known to be, more or less, the most unsuccessful model of the German luxury carmaker, is due for a major makeover for 2010.


The R-Klasse has been on sell since the end of 2004, but never reached the desired selling target. That is why Mercedes-Benz decided to revamp the GST for the forthcoming year. The new crossover will feature a completely revised front fascia, displaying new headlights(probably featuring LED technology), radiator grille, bumper and air intakes. The rear end will also suffer some modifications concerning the tail lights and the exhausts, and last but not least, the current exterior mirrors will be replaced by the new, rectangular ones which made their debut on the E- & GLK-Klasse ranges. The overall dimensions of the car will not suffer any changes;in the interior, the 2010 R-Klasse will boast the same roomy architecture, with comfortable seats, lots of practical pockets for storing personal objects, and classy & premium quality materials for the dashboard. A new steering wheel and minor changes to the arrangement of the buttons are expected, as well as an updated COMAND system. The entire range of powerplants will be updated so as to meet the latest emission standards and be more efficient in terms of fuel consumption. So, BlueEFFICIENCY units all the way!
