Mercedes-Benz officially launches the GLS model in Vietnam.

“SUVenture” – An off-road performance in the heart of Hanoi

The “SUVenture” event, held at the Vietnam National Convention Center (Thang Long Boulevard, Nam Tu Liem, Hanoi), marks the first time Vietnamese customers can admire the complete collection from GLA to GLS, including 14 SUV models with a total value of over 60 billion VND. Challenging terrains such as uneven pits and inclined walls have been set up within the National Convention Center grounds to test the off-road capabilities of the products, especially the superiority of the 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. With the appeal of the two brand-new SUV models, GLC and GLS, MBV expects to attract more than 15,000 visitors. The program will be open to visitors from June 16th to 19th, from 9 am to 8 pm, with 6 shows per day, an increase of 1 show compared to previous years.

Including test drive vehicles and certified pre-owned cars, the “SUVenture” event featured 30 Mercedes-Benz products with a total value of up to VND 100 billion – the highest in the 6 editions of the Fascination exhibition. MBV expects this “SUVenture” event to usher in a brilliant era of success for Mercedes-Benz SUV products in Vietnam.

GLS: S-Class when you want it, SUV when you need it.

Diverse versions, competitive pricing: The GLS is introduced to Vietnamese customers with four different versions – the most in its segment. All versions are equipped with Mercedes-Benz's renowned 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. The GLS is the only product with a diesel engine version, meeting the needs of customers who appreciate the characteristics of this engine type. With diverse configurations and prices starting from 3.899 billion VND, the GLS will be a reasonable and worthwhile choice in the large luxury SUV segment, especially after July 1st, 2016, when prices will be affected by engine displacement.

The four GLS variants are priced from 3.899 to 8.249 billion VND.

When a large SUV is sexy: The curves of the Sensual Purity design language and bold SUV-style bumper/trim details make the GLS both sensual and masculine. At the front, the GLS makes a strong impression with its perforated two-bar grille and chrome trim surrounding the front bumper. From the side, the GLS captivates viewers with its large wheel designs (19-21 inches depending on the version), such as the elegant five-spoke double design on the GLS 400 4MATIC, or the sporty multi-spoke design on the GLS 500 4MATIC. The highlight of the rear design is the completely new LED taillight cluster with fiber optic technology, along with a rear bumper integrating luxurious chrome-plated dual exhaust pipes.

The S 500 L currently holds 90% of the market share in the large luxury sedan segment.

Spacious – at your fingertips: With a wheelbase of up to 3,075 mm – leading the segment, the GLS boasts ample space in all three rows. Not only spacious, the GLS is also very passenger-friendly. The soft-close door function makes closing the doors smoother and quieter. The EASY-ENTRY feature allows passengers to easily access the third row with just one press of a button. The front seats in the GLS are equipped with heating and ventilation, providing comfort for occupants in various conditions. The central screen integrates a map of Vietnam and GPS navigation, allowing the driver to conveniently monitor information and the journey. Two leading audio brands, Harman Kardon and Bang & Olufsen, accompany the GLS versions, ensuring passengers enjoy entertainment tailored to their preferences on long journeys.

Mercedes-AMG G 63 Edition 463: The power of the modern era, timeless appeal.

The Mercedes-AMG G 63 Edition 463 at the “SUVenture” event is both the latest upgraded version of the G-Class line with improved performance and a special edition with unique features.

C 300 Coupé: A masterpiece of curves.

The C-Class Coupé embodies the Sensual Purity design language with its long nose and distinctive sculpted lines that taper towards the rear. The C 300 Coupé showcased at the event clearly demonstrates its sporty nature with frameless doors, a diamond-pattern grille, a 15 mm lower suspension (compared to the sedan version), and attractive 19-inch multi-spoke AMG wheels.

An opportunity to experience off-road driving in the homeland of the G-Class!

According to Mercedes-Benz Vietnam, customers who purchase a vehicle at the event will have the chance to win an off-road experience in the rugged Schöckl mountain region, Graz, Austria – the birthplace and manufacturing location of the G-Class – in the legendary G-Class vehicles themselves. The organizers will conduct a public draw and announce the lucky winner after the event concludes. In addition, the first five customers who purchase a G-Class between June 15th and August 31st will also be honored with this exciting trip.

In addition, Mercedes-Benz customers will receive a free vehicle inspection and a valuable service voucher.
