5 / 5 ( 1 vote)

The crossover has acquired the stuffed appearance, salon and advanced power units. Interestingly, the Mercedes Glk crossover was presented at one time with the tests of an updated off-road car G-Class.

Similar to the solution, the company wants to understand all that GLK is a worthy member of their off-road class, and not a simple premium parketoment. But here there is a small percentage of custody, because after restyling, the car has become much lower to road covering. The entire range of Mercedes-Benz.

Exterior

Exterior Mercedes-Benz GLK perfectly combines the brutality of "Gelendwagen" and the elegant features of C-class passenger cars. If it is compared with its cars with equal cars, then it looks down and muscular.

Sure appearance A compact off-road car is achieved with the help of expressive, angular forms that are pulled from the nasal to the majestic rear. The "muzzle" machine is drawn up with a massive grille with a 3rd radiy star "in the center.

Mercedes-Benz GLK

There is also a rounded front headlights with LED "boomerangs", relief bumper with "lines" of running lights. Front bumper Got aerodynamic side elements and daytime ribbons.

There is still a powerful air intake, the abundance of massive chromium elements, which effectively emphasize aggressive qualities appearance cars. When a new appearance of the GLK class was developed, the designer composition of the model decided to move away from strict, direct lines that are inherent in past models and create an appearance of the car more rounded and smooth.


Mercedes-Benz GLK side view

If you look at the side of restyled Mercedes-Benz GLK, then he lures a little bit on the older brother Mercedes-Benz ch, and very successfully. It can be seen in a long hood, chopped forms, direct lines, wheeled arches that are more resemble a massive German off-road car.

There is the presence of anger origin from the middle of the front arches of the wheel of the stylistic line, which on the ascending is merged in the upper edge of the lanterns installed from behind. But our ward looks much harmonious than his large-caliber relative.


Mercedes-Benz Glk Front View

The aft part of the updated crossover Mercedes-Benz GLK has large lights with LED filling, which distinguishes it from the last model, as well as chrome "diffuser", which integrated pipes integrated exhaust system cars.

The rear bumper received a stylish metal overlay, from the side of which the chrome-plated exhaust exhaust pipes were placed. If you buy a crossover, then you can choose the colors of body staining from 3-EX-Metallic.


Mercedes-Benz Glk Rear View

This will be the presence of fiery opal (red), polar white and black. Metallic enamels will be followed in 9 different color solutions, among which the presence of silver diamond, silver Iridium, silver palladium, gray thaorite, gray lumonite, white diamond, blue cavanice, brown cuppite and black obsidian.

Gabarits.

The premium car park operator, from German manufacturers in their dimensions fits well within its class. So, in length it is 4,536 mm, in a width of 1,840 mm, in a height of 1,669 mm. The wheel base is not more than 2,755 mm, and the height of the road lumen under the bottom is about 201 mm, which is not bad.

However, this is not all, the car can also additionally lift 30 mm using a special off-road package. The car has good off-road characteristics - the German can overcome the aqueous barrier in 30 mm, it has the angles of the congress and entry 23 and 25 degrees, respectively, and the indicator of body passability equals 19 degrees.

Separately, I want to mention big choice Light alloy disks, where there are more than 15 variations. The wheel diagonal varies from 17-20 inches, with different variations of designer drawings.

Interior

Changes that have passed in the updated GLK model say that the company returns to the beginning of the classic style of the brand. Details of this style in the restyled salon of the brand can be considered the presence of round-shaped air ducts with clear cruciform lattices.

The car received a new three-spoke steering wheel, cutting into the lower part, there is also an updated dashboard with larger devices, which are now installed in chromium wells. The instrument panel itself, together with the visors synchronized with it, the console installed in the center looks pretty nice.


Interior Mercedes-Benz GLK

Below is the color screen of the COMANDIA APS multimedia system, which still supports the touch input. The design of the multimedia and climate control system controlling the design of the multimedia and climate control system, which placed on the center console.

If earlier the gearbox shift lever was located on the central tunnel, now it migrated to the steering wheel, in the form of a steering lever-selector. And in its place they installed a niche for various small things.


Mercedes-Benz Salon GLK.

In the cabin you can see more inserts from the tree. Quality, as well as materials themselves used in Mercedes-Benz GLK Premium Class. Sound insulation level at the highest level.

In the restyled version of the Mercedes-Benz GLK, put the front seats of a new form, which are well-pronounced lateral support. They have an electrical drive and heating. The second row of seats are very wide, there may be quietly three adults people.


Luggage compartment Mercedes-Benz GLK

The seat back can be folded in a 40/60 ratio, which allows for a smooth loading surface. The luggage compartment provides 450 liters of volume, and if necessary, it can be increased by folding the same backs, which will provide about 1,550 liters of useful loading space, which is rather not enough.

Specifications

On the market Russian Federation, the German crossover will be offered with one power unit operating on diesel fuel And two on gasoline. 7-speed will be played as a binder automatic box Shift 7G-TRONIC gear (on the top version there will be stealing petals) and a differential, asymmetrical four-wheel drive 4matic with electronic blocking of interclass differentials.

IN standard variant, torque will be implemented in distribution 45:55 in favor of the rear axle, but under certain conditions, this ratio can vary from 30:70 to 70:30. The list of power units from the very "weak" diesel engine GLK220 CDI 4MATIC, which is represented by a 2.1-liter turbocharged motor.


MERCEDES-BENZ GLK engine

He develops 170 horses and dials the first hundred for 8.8 seconds. The maximum speed is 205 km / h. Every 100 kilometers of the eorded road will be spent around 6.5 liters of diesel fuel.

The gasoline engine is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit, where there is a direct fuel supply and turbocharging. It gives 211 horsepower. He overcomes the first hundred for 7.9 seconds, and the maximum speed at 215 km / h. Consumes this motor order of 7.7 liters per 100 km in combination mode.

Next comes atmospheric gasoline top V-shaped six-cylinder GLK300 4Matic, where there is a 20-valve gas distribution mechanism and direct injection. It gives up about 250 horses. 7.5 seconds, exactly so much need a severe crossover to reach the speed mark of 100 km / h, and the maximum speed will be 238 km / h.

He eats not much more than his "relative" - \u200b\u200bnamely 8.7 liters in mixed mode. The basis of Mercedes-Benz GLK took the C-class base. If we talk about the pendants, then McPherson racks are oriented by different planes levers in front, and behind the presence of a four-dimensional design.


Mercedes-Benz GLK crossover

Steering is carried out using an electromechanical control amplifier with variable gear ratio. As a braking system, disc ventilated devices are installed on all wheels.

It is logical to conclude that the car of German production has modern "assistants." Among them, the presence of an anti-lock system ABS, anti-pass technology ASR, system emergency braking Bas and e-mail
Control stabilization ESP.

Let's sum up

Summing up the German crossover Mercedes-Benz Glk, I would like to say that the car turned out very modern, despite the fact that the company made the design more classic. According to his appearance it is clear that he seeks speed and is not afraid of light off-road.

The front lighting received Biksenon. Large arches of wheels with no less massive wheels, only complement grace. The feed looks usually and has a good luggage door and clear rear lights.

The luggage compartment can be increased by folding the rear seat backs, so this car You can advise family people.

GLC. Mercedes Benz. 2017. new modelall-wheel drive crossover, I changed its predecessor - GLK. There were great hopes for this model, which, according to the manufacturer, were not justified to the end.

The release of the new SUV Mercedes-Benz GLC passed in June 2015 in Stuttgart. Together with the change of rules for the designations of innovation models, the appearance of the car was also touched upon. Mercedes GLC 2018 refers to the first generation. In 2018 - 2019, he will stay without restyling.

Now the model has been significantly transformed outwardly, acquired new versions of the motor. The manufacturer paid great attention to the comfort of passengers and reliability of the car. As Mercedes commented on the main designer, their SUVs must be a combination of luxury and sportiness.

Exterior

The new SUV was produced in the body of SUV. This model is very different from its predecessor. The angularity was replaced by smooth body knowledge, the roof became a bit lower. The whole car turned out longer, which made it possible to increase the trunk and places for the feet of passengers. The hood also became somewhat longer, retained a small bend in himself, but without strong fractures. A new version Externally resembles a C-class wagon with a accent and sports echoes in the direction of the unisex.

The front part of the crossover fully complies with the concept of Mercedes design. It is the largest area of \u200b\u200bits radiator grilles, which, according to the classic, are covered with a mesh texture. A large chrome-plated pad is shoved on the top grid, which form 4 of the ribs located under the low-rise slope convergent to the rays of the company's logo. Car headlights have an elongated shape, slightly tilted. Over them are strips of daytime running lights. Double horizontal ribs emphasize 2 air intakes, which are located in the lower corners.

Desguing to the back of the car's glass is beautifully decorated with chrome edging. The rear of the Mercedes looks narrower relative to the other parts of the body. It begins the elegant spoiler equipped with a LED stop signal, and the lower part is assigned to the exhaust pipes with a chrome spraying, which is an excellent final touch in the guide of the car.

It is difficult to understand the dimensions of the Mercedes GLC, because The body creates an impression of massiveness, and the true rather modest dimensions gives only its comparison with large wheels.

Salon

The interior of the Mercedes GLC is similar to the interior of the C-Class W205, which can be considered as a certain plus. All the materials of the cabin are in harmony with each other, all the little things are taken into account. The interior decoration is made of leather, wood, plastic, which moderately diluted with metal elements and a contrasting stitch. With the overall sportiness of the car, his design creates a feeling of comfort and comfort. Many will agree that the interior of this car can be called the most successful item relative to the rest of the car.

The driver's and front passenger places are quite spacious, the seats are wide, but the side support is practically no, which delivers certain inconvenience when turning. But instead of it installed expandable pillows. Concerning rear seats, they can also be called comfortable, although the central place is not very successful, because Sitting on it will interfere with a high and wide tunnel. A good supplement was the ability to change the tilt of the back of the rear seat or fold them in relation to 40/20/40.

The driver's seat is equipped with a large broad steering. In some versions, it is surrounded, and has a D-shaped. By the way, the severity of its turning depends on the configuration of the engine operation mode.

When the wheel, hiding under the metal visors, the wells of the speedometer and the tachometer were located, and the place between them is assigned to the information color display. A review with a steep rise with a turn may not be complete, in such cases you can contact the help of a computer.

Few people will leave indifferent impressive size multimedia screen, located above the tablet console. Immediately under the screen are 3 round ventilation ducts and the minimum number of buttons controlling various systems, including climate control.

One of the features of the GLC is a panoramic roof that can deliver considerable pleasure to passengers.

GLC Mercedes Benz 2017 Dimensions

Compared with its predecessor, the GLK, the new GLAS 2017 model has become more in all respects.

  • Length - 4656 mm (120 mm more);
  • Wheel base - 2873 (+ 118);
  • Width - 1890 (+50);
  • Height - 1639 (+9);
  • Volume luggage compartment - up to 580 liters, if folded backs - 1600 liters.

Challenges

This model has become the first in the segment of premium SUVs, for which the multi-chamber applied pneumatic suspension. In the configuration, the models have a four-wheel drive and the Dynamic SELECT system designed to create comfort and reliability at high speeds. It is difficult to judge how much it was possible to manufacturer, because At high speed, the car suspension does not always copes even with the uralicities of asphalt, and the driver and passengers risk fully feeling the "lying policeman" near the house.

Another surprise can be the rear wheels drift when driving on a relative off-road at a speed of about 50 km / h. From the drift of the GLC, it turns out easily, but the level of comfort located in it is noticeably reduced.

Additionally, the car is equipped with a package of off-road modes. When you turn on one of them, the operation of the engine, gearbox, electronics are changed:

  • OFFROAD;
  • Sliply;
  • Trailer;
  • Climb.

Off-road qualities include:

  • Protection of the bottom;
  • Off-road control algorithms;
  • Differential lock;
  • The inter-axis differential has an asymmetry with a distribution of 45% traction on front axle and 55% - to the rear.

The base of the GLC has a suspension with steel springs and adaptive shock absorbers, which have 5 modes of operation.

  • Suspension - Independent Spring: 2-lever Front and multi-type rear;
  • Brakes - disk, with air-cooled;
  • Wheels - 235/65 R17 - 235/55 R19;
  • Road clearance - 181 mm

The technical moment that makes wondering is to reduce the road lumen from the car suspended off-road. If 210 mm was clearance on the GLK, then it was 181 mm on the GLS. Optional air suspension AIR Body Control can compensate for this, increase the clearance by 30-50 mm or reduce it with 15 mm (sports mode) and 35 mm (Sport + mode). But, buying a car for the cost of GLC, I would like to have a standard suspension, which will provide at least some comfort in certain situations. At least on roads with asphalt coating.

GLC Mercedes Benz 2017 Specifications

The new model is based on the modular chassis of Modular Rear Architecture (MRA), with which the Mercedes fans are already familiar to the C-class.

The mass of the crossover became less than 80 kg, to achieve 50 of which was as a result of the fact that steel and aluminum with increased wear resistance were used in the body design. Now the car's weight is about 1735-2025 kg. Aerodynamic resistance became 0.31, while In GLK, he was 0.34.

The power gamut of the Russian version includes two gasoline and diesel engines, as well as a hybrid system:

These motors have a 9-speed automaton and a complete drive system, an exception is a hybrid. It has, but the transmission is automatic 7-speed.

Hybrid equipment includes lithium-ion batteries (8.7 kWh) and seven-band automatic transmission of 7G-Tronic Plus. At the electric grinder, the GLC is able to drive 34 km, at a speed not exceeding 140 km / h.

Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe

conclusions

Perhaps Mercedes Glz 2017 is one of those machines whose characteristics do not allow to give an unequivocal answer, what feelings it causes. On the one hand, the salon and the functions responsible for comfort in it really at the height. But the technical side of the question remains open. The manufacturer positions its brainchild as a "off-road monster", but test drives can not agree with it. Of course, no one will drag the car of this class in the swamp to check its all-time qualities. But taking into account not at all small prices, the buyer has the right to get a car, which at least will be graceful to swim over lying police, pits and cords, not disturbed by their driver imperfections of suspension systems.

GLC Overview on YouTube

November 11th, 2015 Admin.

To date, the crossover segment is one of the most intensively developing in the global automotive market. However, for a long time, the auto giant was not solved to produce their "small" (on the basis of the C-class car) of the model in the premium sector of this segment, fearing that the audience may not accept them.

The pioneer became "BMW", having released its compact luxury crossover X3 in the distant 2003. The car immediately began to enjoy in great demand that prompted competitors to take action. Mercedes-Benz released its alternative to the market - "GLK" - only in 2008, but quite quickly beat off a lot of buyers from BMW, because the car was balanced and attractive to consumers. In 2012, the car was restyled, which immediately increased its global sales by 10%. Today we will tell you in detail about this car, incl. and its technical characteristics and equipment.

Appearance Mercedes GLK

Front car looks aggressively and sports. First of all, a large falseradiator lattice can be distinguished with 2 horizontal planks and a large, notable afar, the company's logo. Also remarkable relief bumper with air intake in the chrome edging of the complex shape and the strips of running lights integrated into it. The headlights are quite large, polygonal shape, with freshness.

The back of the restyled car differs from the car release until 2012 is not as much as the front. However, the rear lights are different, exactly as a bumper with a shiny metal overlay, on the edges of which there are oblong exhaust nozzles covered with chrome.

The overall dimensions of the Parketnik from "Mercedes" are as follows: 4.536 m. in length, 1.84 m. in width, height reaches 1.669 M.., And the wheelbase rang out 2.775 m. Road clearance (clearance) is quite impressive - 21 cm.

It is extremely doubtful that someone will ride on such a car off-road, but geometric passability completely allows this, since the angle of the congress reaches 23 °, and the entrance is 25 °. But the water obstacles on the "GLK" is not forced, since its upper bar in this exercise is only 30 cm.

For those who want to customize the appearance of their car, more than 15 variations of the appearance of the wheels are offered. At the same time, if you want, discs of several diameters are available - from 17 before 20 inches inclusive.

Also, the client can choose between the 12th options of the body. In addition to classic colors, there are several original shades in stock, which will surely delight those who want to stand out in the stream.

In general, the appearance of the German crossover is carefully thought out and will have to do with the overwhelming number of potential buyers. At the same time, it cannot be called unnecessarily aggressive, nor a fresh, which is another component of the success of this car in the market, since a balanced exterior contributes to an increase in the popularity of the model.

Photo Salon Mercedes GLK 2008 - 2014

The interior decoration of the cabin has changed much more noticeable than the appearance of the car. The main innovations are differently located some controls. In particular, the car does not have the usual gearbox selector, instead there is a joystick, located on the steering column. The steering wheel from the four-spoken became a three-spoke, which gave him some chance of sportiness. The lower needles differ in its large width and metal finish.

The dashboard has practically not changed: the information is still easy to read, since the instruments are located in the "wells", which eliminates glare.

Air ducts can be called a real work of art. Few cars can boast such an elegant design of this element of the cabin.

The central console remains the same - almost 6-inch display of the multimedia system and the buttons under it have not changed its location, as well as the controls of the climate installation. Naturally, for the machine of this class, a variety of finishing options are offered - starting from inserts under the tree and ending with aluminum elements in the interior.

Noise insulation, as always, at Mercedes, at an altitude - neither the engine nor other noises outside almost heard.

The front seats are equipped with an extensive set of adjustments and heating. Moreover. The settings can be fixed, and the chair will adapt to the driver, only it is necessary to press the button. The thoughtful seating profile and good side support make them even more comfortable.

The rear sofa is also very comfortable. It can safely sit on 3 adults, and thanks to adjustments, also configure planting place Under yourself. Of course, the range is much more modest than the front chairs, but it is enough for convenient placement.

Alas, but for the comfort of passengers, I had to sacrifice the trunk. Its volume is quite small by class standards: only 450 liters. If you fold the seats, this figure will increase to 1550 liters.

Specifications Mercedes GLK 2008 - 2014

As mentioned above, the GLK is based on the C-class platform, which predetermined the size of the car and the design of its running part. Machine suspension, which is in front of it is independent. The only difference lies in the layout: it's an ordinary "McPherson" in front, and behind the "multi-dimension".

Of course, the suspension of this car is capable of changing its settings in a specific mode, depending on the driver's choice via the on-board interface "COMAND", although it is not adaptive (everything occurs due to the "smart" hydraulic shock absorbers with a variable rigidity by adjusting the cross section of the bypass valve Located in stock; other electronics in the suspension is not).

As for the line of power plants, it is represented in Russia with 4 engines, half of which are diesel, while others 2 work on gasoline.

Diesel engines

  • The "younger" diesel is developing 170 hp, providing acceleration to "hundreds" for 8.8 s. and maximum speed of 205 km / h. Fuel consumption - 6.5 l / 100 km. (Comb).
  • The "senior" motor generates 211 hp, which allows the car with this engine accelerates to 100 km / h for 7.9 s. And develop "maximum speed" in 215 km / h. Fuel consumption - 7.7 l / 100 km. (Comb).

Both row engines, 4-cylinder.

Gasoline engines

  • At the first gasoline motor, the capacity is 250 hp, the time of overclocking the car with it to "hundreds" - 7.5 s., And the maximum speed is -238 km / h. Consumption - 8.6 l / 100 km. (Comb).
  • The second engine has a capacity of 306 hp, and it allows the car to reach a speed of 100 km / h. For 6.5 s. And accelerate to 238 km / h. Fuel consumption - 8.7 l / 100 km. (Comb).

Both power plants V-shaped, 6 cylinder.

The gearbox is one - automatic, with 7-steps, is aggregated with all motors.

Mercedes GLK Complete set and price

Already the basic list of equipment produces a solid impression. After all, it is present:

1) A complete set of airbags (front and lateral);

2) On-board computer with full-time multimedia and audio system;

3) Climate control by 2 zones;

4) Multiculine;

5) Parktrontniki in front and rear;

6) Fully adjustable steering wheel;

7) Sensors of light, rain, tire pressure and volume (the latter is part of the anti-theft system);

8) Heated mirrors and seats;

9) Leather interior;

10) Standard CZ, immobilizer and alarm;

11) System facilitating the start from the slope;

12) A collision prevention system, self-combining when approaching an obstacle (if the driver does not react) and much more.

Naturally, more expensive equipment is even better equipped, and at the same time it is always possible to order additional options that can easily increase the cost of the car 2 times.

In conclusion, I would like to say that this comfortable, harmonious and very attractive car from Mercedes already came from the conveyor. It happened in the current 2015.And he replaced the GLC crossover.

Therefore, if you wanted to buy "Mercedes-Benz GLK", it can only be done on secondary market. The average price range as of October-November 2015 is from 1 200 000 2 750 000 rub. on the restyled version that was produced since 2012, and about 870 000 2 000 000 rub. For cars 2008-2012. release.

Let's figure out what the success of the popularity of the smallest SUV with a three-beam star on the facing of a falseradiator lattice is lining, and at the same time we will appreciate the design and size of the body and the cabin, we will get acquainted with the technical characteristics of the Mercedes Zhals (another version of Russian transcription), Russian grades and prices. To admire the exterior, wheeled discs and tires, choose the color and evaluate the crossover in motion. Photos and video materials traditionally placed at the end of the review will help us.

Exterior Facelifting touched on the front of the crossover. The car designers awarded the new headlights of head light with sharp grains, as the original stuffing - the corners of the LEDs, duplicated by ribbons of light diode lamas on the modified bumper. The front fairing acquired a powerful plastic skiing under chrome, it looks serious and aggressively. The back of the updated crossover Mercedes Ji El Ka can also boast a new bumper with an integrated diffuser in its plane, followed by silencers. The rest of the body has retained a familiar brutal image of a dorestayling model.
When viewed with a side, the new GLK class tries to be similar to the older brother Mercedes-Benz GL, and it can do it - a long hood, crushed shapes, straight lines, even the wheel arches resemble a larger German SUV ... In our opinion, compact GLK 2013 The year looks much harmonious than its large-caliber relative.

  • Overall dimensions Body Mercedes GLK 2013 model year Make up: 4536 mm long, 1840 mm (with mirrors 2016 mm) wide, 1669 mm in height, 2755 mm Wheel base, 210 mm Road clearance ( clearance), 300 mm depth of overcome water barrier, 23 degree angle of entry, 25 degrees Corner angle, 19 degrees angle of geometric body patency.

The salon of the new Mercedes GLK was transformed, and although the overall architecture of the front panel and the center console was preserved, but they look different. Round ventilation deflectors appeared, there were more wooden inserts on the torpedo, the console was visible, the steering wheel of the new design was installed, and the most importantly, the handle of the gearbox disappeared from the tunnel !!! Rather, the lever was replaced by the joystick and placed it on the steering column - everything is like older Mersers. Beautiful and informative devices in three separate wells, in the center of the largest - color information display.
The front aircraft and heated chairs have become more convenient and more sensitively support the body in the turns of the side support rollers. In the second row, three passengers will spread comfortably. The volume of the trunk depending on the position of the rear seats is 450-1550 liters. Finishing materials, noise and sound insulation - premium class.

Test Drive Mercedes GLK-Class 2012-2013: On the course, a restyled crossover is not much different from the usual a passenger car, In fact, it is like that. Built cars on the platform Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204) with all the consequences arising from here: Comfortable and elastic suspension does not lull, but smoothes all irregularities. On the roads with solid coated, the car will allow you to confidently go to maximum speed And without feasts to enter turns. The reaction of the steering is somewhat late at low speeds, but with an increase in speed everything becomes in its place - JLK rulits itself properly and juicy. The mass of electronics constantly monitors the crossover, and in the case of an error of piloting will adjust the trajectory. Behind the wheel of the new jilk there is a feeling that it does not drive a car, and the car only allows it to manage it.
On the off-road it is necessary to make aware that the biller is a crossover, albeit with a constant full-wheel drive, with light troubles in the form of a risky primer, sand or snow will cope with the play, but for off-Round it is better to choose another car.
How much is In Russia: the sale of Mercedes-Benz GLK 2013 starts for Russian fans of the German brand for the cost of 1830000 rubles per crossover in the basic configuration with diesel engine GLK 220 CDI with Motor 170 forces. The price of gasoline GLK 300 (250 hp) is a minimum of 1990,000 rubles, but it is possible to buy the most powerful GLK 350 (306 HP) at a price of 2430000 rubles.

The presentation of the updated crossover Mercedes-Benz GLK took place simultaneously with the G-Class restyled SUV test. So the Mercedesovs try to show that GLK is a worthy member of their off-road family, and not just another premium "PARQUITING". However, now in this statement there is some fraction of decentity, because during the update the crossover has become essentially closer to the asphalt.

At the time of its appearance on the market in 2009, GLK really claimed the title of the "off-road" crossover among its premium counterparts. He had almost a 20-centimeter ground clearance, a constant four-wheel drive with the distribution of traction in the proportion of 45:55 percent in favor of the rear axle, as well as an optional "off-road" package with the protection of the bottom and the special algorithm for the operation of the control electronics. Now the basic clearance decreased by 20 millimeters - up to 177 millimeters. According to engineers, to improve the controllability and reduce fuel consumption, but in fact - because GLK owners are too rarely leaving asphalt roads.

The situation with the road clearance of the new Mercedes-Benz GLK was generally somewhat confusing. In official press materials, 177 millimeters of the "basic" clearance are fair for rear-wheel drive versions with a 2.2-liter diesel. At the same time, data on the magnitude of the clien's all-wheel drive modifications are listed with the already installed Offroad Engineering package, which is now included in 30 millimeters ground clearance.

It is 207 millimeters for diesel versions and 210 millimeters - for the machine with gasoline V6.

If you take 30 millimeters from these numbers, which adds off-road suspension, then the same 177 millimeters will turn out for a diesel engine and 180 millimeters for gasoline car. However, in official documents, Mercedes-Benz such indicators for some reason are not specified anywhere.

Off-road Offroad Engineering Pack now includes an increase in 30 millimeters road clearance, additional reinforced plastic protection, a system of assistance with a downhill slope, and an "off-road" ABS algorithm, stabilization system, gearboxes and electronic pedals Gas, which is activated by a button on the center console. For machines with adaptive headlight, you can order a system of "off-road" lighting, when at speeds up to 50 kilometers per hour the electronics makes the melee beam slightly wider and brighter.

By and large, to lightly update the suspensions and all the work on the chassis in the restyled GLK is reduced. Because of the changed kinematics, springs and shock absorbers on all versions were re-calibrated, but no "mechatronics" for the Mercedes-Benz crossover chassis is still not provided: only pure mechanics and hydraulics of self-regulatory shock absorbers changing their rigidity only by changing the cross section of the bypass valve in stock.

Sales of premium crossovers in 2011

Motors line updated slightly. Gasoline 3.5-liter "Six", popular in Russia, is a new, equipped with direct fuel injection. In our market will be available in two options for forsing: 306 capacity horse power and with 370 Nm of torque (GLK 350), and with a capacity of 250 horsepower (350 nm), which will replace the three-liter V6 on the version of GLK 300. Diesels Russians will not be prompted, but in Europe there will be four: three options 2.1 -Litrov motor 143, 170 and 204 forces, and diesel V6 with a capacity of 265 forces, which develops 620 nm of torque. We will not have both basic rear-wheel drive modifications GLK.

The updated GLK is now equipped with an electromechanical steering amplifier - as well as a commodulated Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Such a design slightly saves fuel, tells the driver where to turn the steering wheel in the case of the start of slip and independently - the micro-versions of the wheels - adjusts the trajectory while driving or braking on unstable coatings.

What are other news?

First of all, design. In the appearance of the updated GLK now less than chopped faces, slightly relating to it with the original Gelandewagen, but even more chromium: brilliant straps of the radiator grille and bumpers lining, chrome finishing of LED fog. The front headlights became more rounded, and the "drums" in their corners are even more expressive.

"The previous GLK has divided potential buyers into two camps: one unequivocally liked his rude, chopped design, and the other did not like it unequivocally," said Matthias Sissot, the GLK project manager, explained for the dinner. - Working out an updated crossover, we tried to blur the border between these groups of customers. His appearance is now more universal, but at the same time, as it seems, no less expressive. "

Maybe Sobota and Right, but Charizma in the guise of Mercedes-Benz GLK now has become less, and best of all it looks in an angle ¾ from behind, where his angularity is still noticeable.

But the Salon restyling went only to benefit. Here, at first glance, not a single old detail: new Rule, tidy from the updated C-Class with a color screen in the center of the speedometer, a large LCD display navigation system, expensive, very high-quality finish materials and ... not a single plane, not a single spicy face! Even ventilation system deflectors changed on round, with aluminum finish - as on rostmen SLK. and SL.

    For GLK available as a classic "Mercedes" finish with a lacquered brown tree ...

    So more stylish versions with black veneer and light beige leather on the seats.

    The display in the dashboard center has a high resolution and can output almost any data on the machine, including the prompts of the navigation system.

    Round ventilation system deflectors - like SLK and SL.

    "Off-road" buttons are separated from the rest of the protruding ribs. Probably to avoid accidental presses.

    Fully brown interior decoration - with brown plastic and chocolate color of the skin - an amateur. Although it looks very "rich".

The "Automat" selector moved from the central tunnel to the steering column, freeing the place for the cup holders and the joystick of the Comand multimedia complex. The COMAND system itself on GLK is now also the fresh, with voice control, internet access and the ability to use online applications for reading news and Facebook, and even search for free parking spaces.

A restyled GLK restyled GLK is now unified with the C-Class family, which survived the update last year. This means that now the crossover can be equipped with adaptive cruise control, automatic parking system, as well as monitoring systems of blind zones and monitoring the observance of robes of movement. Among the options are a circular review system implemented using security systems.

How does the new GLK go?

Comfortable as before. Changes in the suspension did not affect the smoothness of the course: GLK is still great smoothes anyone, even the most mediocre road canvas. And on the mountain primer, the road, which was part of the test route in the foothills of the Alps, Mercedes-Benz crossover rudder with enviable calm. The energy intensity of the chassis is great. GLK is not afraid of no rubbing, nor pits, elastically and almost silently swallowing most irregularities.

With an off-road package, the crossover without thinking storms stony roads with a complex relief: the road lumen at 21 centimeters is enough almost everywhere if you go with your head. The disadvantage is one - the stroke is small, in fact, the suspension. Therefore, the shock absorbers sometimes triggered a slightly stiff, and on large pockets the wheels are wound in the air. However, the GLK diagonal hanging is not afraid of: hurt brakes, it is capable of sprinkling almost everywhere. Especially if they wish in more or less "evil" tires.

Offroad package will cost buyers of 40 thousand rubles, and it seems to not exclude the possibility of installing AMG Staling Package, which includes new exterior elements and large wheel disks (The total cost of the package "exterior" is 100 thousand rubles), as well as the "AMG finish" of the salon for 58 thousand. What the GLK can on a bad road can be viewed in the roller at the end of the article.

On asphalt - traditional for "Mercedes" softness in the habits. The empty, lightweight steering wheel responds to the actions of the driver with Lenza, but it becomes quite informative in turns. Rolls are small, but you really don't want to go to GLK truly quickly on GLK even with a top 306-strong gasoline engine. Its pleasant for observers outside the baritone in the cabin, because of good noise insulation, it sounds flat, the responses to the gas pedal seem to be a bit of charge, the automatic in the "Drive" mode relaxesly moves the highest transmissions.

A slightly tremble GLK can be transferred to transmission to Sport mode, but the nature of the crossover will not change. A much more noticeable difference between the gasoline and diesel car: GLK 220 CDI with a 170-strong engine is slightly tightly on the suspension, and by assertion of overclocking in the middle revolution zone, it does not lose more powerful V6 due to 400 nm of torque, available from 1400 revolutions minute. That's just the sound groaned - with an active ride, its ugly caravan still breaks through the soundproof mats.

But in Russia there will be no diesel GLK?

Will not be. Now for the order, crossovers with gasoline V6 with a capacity of 250 or 306 horsepower with a "automatic" in the "special series" are available. Moreover, GLK 300 after restyling fell by 100 thousand rubles - from 1.99 to 1.89 million rubles. Top GLK 350, on the contrary, went up by 10 thousand rubles: for a powerful motor and more rich basic complete set The buyer will have to pay 2.39 million rubles. "Mercedesovsky" Comfort is free.
