Review: 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350

Go to MYRIDE.COM for more car videos.
This latest shining star in the Mercedes-Benz stable is built at the same Alabama assembly plant that produces the five-passenger M-Class sport utility, and though the R-Class only accommodates one more rider, it stretches the M-Class's frame by more than a foot to accomplish a very different mission. Mercedes engineers have attempted to sew the performance attributes of a sport sedan, the adaptability of a luxury wagon, and the all-weather security of a SUV into the R-Class. Indeed, this new luxury crossover vehicle has a voluminous, well-appointed cabin; a Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system; and, with its second- and third-row seats folded flat, the R-Class accommodates 85 cubic feet of cargo.

Steve has some valid points were M-B could have done a better job. R-class has made improvements every year it's been offered. Comparing it to a Pacifica is crude. The R does not share any parts with the Pacifica and it's as if a concept was thrown out on the table and the D-Chrysler people came up with Pacifica and the M-B people came up with the R. German engineering is still superior. There is a ton of room in the R and there is the market. Ugly, yes. The beauty is on the inside.
