Mercedes-Benz R-Class

Review

The R-Class is Mercedes attempt to create a new class of vehicle, a combination of a luxury sedan, a minivan and SUV. With its streamlined styling the R-Class is deceptive in size. It is a true 7 seater with acres of room. Even in the third row adults can sit comfortably over long distances with plenty of leg and shoulder room. The standard specification is comprehensive with multifunction steering wheel, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat, Modular Cockpit Management and Data system (COMAND), which integrates a stereo/CD player, a large color LCD screen, navigation system and telephone integration (or SIRIUS Satellite Radio as a no cost option). Being car based rather than truck based gives the R350 an agility and poise that other 7 seat SUVs simply cannot match. In slippery conditions the 4MATIC is completely automatic, no switches or buttons are required. The R350 4MATIC will adjust the drive depending on terrain with no user input. Of course this is not intended as a serious off road vehicle, however the R350 4MATIC will easily cope with any adverse road conditions. As a method of transporting up to 7 passengers in comfort over long distances and in complete safety, the Mercedes-Benz R-Class R350 4MATIC is a hard act to follow.
