Updated Mercedes R Class

5-seat and 7-seat version now available

Even greater interior adaptability, two wheelbase lengths, rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC all-wheel drive and new engine variants -- the Mercedes-Benz R-Class now opens up even more possibilities, especially when it comes to seating arrangements. The line-up, which includes the familiar configurations with up to six individual seats, has been augmented to include a five-seat version and a seven-seat variant. Plus new, distinctive bodystyling at the front and rear end lends the SUV Tourer added appeal.

Great car and good looking. Minivan, Wagon, Touring whatever you want to call it....I call it a Mercedes Benz.

R-class - First class!

Bought an R350 about 6 weeks ago. Intoxicating car. Definitely not a mini-van. It is more a low flying private jet...quiet, faster than you would expect, very stable, everybody gets a good seat (2nd row adjusts fore and aft, all seats recline, including 3rd row). Smooth...best have the cruise on, or speed climbs up- was up to 100 one day, lucky no bubble tops around. Larger than it looks and much interior capacity.

Appearance is mis-leading as to what it is and what it can do!

Bought one 12 weeks ago. Takes a little to get used to but a ripper car! Best of all worlds and amazing fuel economy for its size... Well done Benz

Thumbs down or not, the proof is in the sales, this is still one of the worst Mercedes on the road. I guess the swb dsnt look as bad, but Id much rather drive a GLK.

Had my Alpine Rain R350 now for about 10 weeks. Just love it - silky smooth, only seen 2 others on the road, same trans. and engine in many other Mercs, all I can say is Drive One - if you are "able." Check out the mercedes concept car it was based on - the Vision GST Concept (2002)...probably the most identical/faithful copy of a concept I've ever seen. And mine has the panoramic sunroof. Cheers.

I agree it is a crap car. This doesnt deserve to wear the Mercedes badge, it looks like a shoe. And to make matters worse its built in Alabama, I wish Mercedes would stop building this car.

To those of you who like this car, theres nothing wrong with that, thats just your taste.

Your buying an R class on pourpose? Wow.

I'm about to buy a used one this week. The NEXT must have vehicle - selling the CRV. If you have large teenagers - this is the s**t on the road today - in a good way!!
