Strength That Shows Up

The Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz GLS deliver muscular performance for daily commutes and weekend escapes alike. Despite each SUV coming standard with a 3.0L engine, the Range Rover pulls ahead where it counts. This configuration produces 395 horsepower (HP) and 406 lb-ft of torque, whereas the GLS standardly maxes out at 375 HP and 369 lb-ft of torque.

The Range Rover gives you three distinct powertrain options, allowing you to choose your level of power.

The bottom line: The Range Rover lineup has the performance to match your ambitions.

Control You Can Count On

Life doesn't always follow a linear path. A sudden rainstorm can affect traction on your way to work, or a spontaneous detour can take you down the scenic route. With a standard All Wheel Drive system in the Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz GLS, you can feel confident when your path includes light off-roading. But what happens when wanderlust strikes? Is the Range Rover or the GLS up for the challenge?

Some GLS models may be outfitted with an available Off-Road Package that helps equip your SUV with the features needed to take the path less traveled. However, the Range Rover was expertly designed to conquer paths carved by Mother Nature. The standard off-roading specs and all-terrain features—like the exclusive Terrain Response® 2 system—prove that the Range Rover will continuously adapt for smoothness and control.

Plug-in Progress

In a world where efficiency matters, the Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz GLS embrace the reality of reduced carbon emissions thanks to their hybrid powertrain integrations. The GLS pairs its engine with a lithium-ion battery for a mild hybrid experience.

The Range Rover ups the stakes with its optional plug-in electric hybrid (PHEV) configuration, which lets you switch from hybrid to fully electric commutes with the press of a button. Electric mode, which includes an EPA-estimated 53-mile all-electric driving range, produces zero tailpipe emissions for a truly eco-friendly commute.*

Charging the Range Rover is easy. In less than 60 minutes, you can charge your SUV to 80% at a compatible public charging station.** Features like this cement the Range Rover as an innovative SUV. Sadly, with its gas-only hybrid engine, the same can't be said for the GLS.

Future-Proof Driving

Purchasing a Range Rover or a Mercedes-Benz GLS is a wise long-term investment. These brands are steeped in heritage, but only one is engineered to evolve with your lifestyle. While the in-cabin technology of the GLS is impressive, it can’t compete with the award-winning Pivi Pro infotainment system of the Range Rover, which adds these features, among others:

• Change map views with navigation: Select the map style you prefer, adding a new layer of customization to your commute.
• Inbuilt Live Apps: Connect your streaming subscriptions, like Spotify®, to your SUV for a more personalized digital experience.
• Amazon Alexa integration: Sync your smart home device to your Range Rover to control lighting and temperature and even check on your family while you're traveling.

As your family grows, the available Rear Seat Entertainment system exclusive to the Range Rover, keeps rear-seat passengers comfortable, even on long road trips.

Modern Design That Commands Attention

Look at the Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz GLS; you'll notice two distinct visual identities. The GLS takes a traditional approach to design with its familiar proportions, sleek profile, and contours in all the right places. The GLS can receive a sporty upgrade with the optional AMG® body styling and Gloss Black exterior accents.

The Range Rover, on the other hand, stands out with its unique profile. Its commanding dimensions attract onlookers rather than scream for attention. Flush door handles, available Nickel Atlas exterior accents, and a sleek grille design complement the paint finishes in Satin, Gloss, or Ultra Metallic and allow the Range Rover to project your aesthetic in vivid detail.

Where the GLS shouts, the Range Rover speaks with intention, balancing strength with sophistication in every curve.

First-Class Comfort, Front to Back

Step inside the Range Rover or the Mercedes-Benz GLS, and the difference between these models becomes even more apparent. The GLS focuses primarily on front-seat comfort, with heated, ventilated, and optional massage function. Ventilated and massaging rear-seat capabilities can be added with an upgrade.

The Range Rover offers exclusive Executive Class Rear Seating. This optional feature adds:

• 8-inch Touchscreen controller
• 5-point seat configuration
• Massage capabilities

With more ways to fine-tune the individual experience, the Range Rover may provide a relaxing experience for all passengers. First-class commuting in the Range Rover is enhanced by its acoustic laminated glass, Active Noise Cancellation, and available Meridian™ Signature Sound System. The result is a quiet, more serene cabin full of the crisp notes from your favorite artists.
