2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS Performance and Engine

Turbocharged Inline-Six Power

Under the hood sits a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six cylinder engine — a powertrain that represented a major step forward when Mercedes-Benz introduced the redesigned GLS for 2020. This engine delivers smooth, effortless acceleration that feels completely at home whether you're merging onto Interstate 8 or navigating the coastal curves of Torrey Pines Road. The power delivery is linear and predictable, never harsh.

9G-TRONIC Nine-Speed Automatic Transmission

Paired with Mercedes-Benz's acclaimed 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission, shifts are virtually imperceptible in everyday driving. The wide spread of gear ratios keeps the engine in its optimal power band at virtually any speed, contributing to both performance and fuel efficiency. The 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system distributes torque intelligently across all four wheels, giving you confident traction in rain, light off-road terrain, and everything in between.

Mercedes-Benz GLS Features and Interior

The 2020 GLS 450 sits at a genuinely elevated tier of full-size luxury SUVs. The interior is a showcase of premium materials — expect real wood trim, Nappa leather seating, and a cabin that seats up to seven passengers across three rows without feeling cramped in any of them. The MBUX infotainment system with its intuitive touchscreen and "Hey Mercedes" voice activation makes connectivity seamless. Dual 12.3-inch displays form a sweeping widescreen cockpit, ambient lighting sets the mood, and a panoramic sunroof floods the cabin with natural light. Driver assistance features on the 2020 GLS 450 typically include active brake assist, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control with Stop & Go functionality — technology that makes long drives measurably less stressful.

Mercedes-Benz GLS Reliability and Ownership

The second-generation GLS (2020 and newer) addressed many of the ownership concerns that followed earlier generations. The switch to the turbocharged inline-six brought improved reliability and smoother power delivery compared to its predecessor. Owners consistently praise the GLS 450 for its long-haul comfort, absence of wind noise at highway speeds, and the way the air suspension — standard on many configurations — absorbs rough pavement without drama. Routine maintenance on a vehicle like this is best handled at a qualified Mercedes-Benz service center, and San Diego County has no shortage of options. With proper care, GLS models regularly serve owners well past 150,000 miles. It's worth having a pre-purchase inspection done if you haven't already — that's true of any used luxury vehicle, and a good shop will confirm just how much life remains in this one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS 450 a good buy?

Yes — the 2020 GLS 450 represents a significant redesign over the previous generation, with a more powerful and refined turbocharged inline-six engine, the latest MBUX technology, and a genuinely spacious three-row interior. It competes directly with the BMW X7 and Cadillac Escalade, and many buyers feel the GLS strikes the best balance of comfort, performance, and brand prestige in that class.

How many miles is too many on a used Mercedes-Benz GLS?

For a well-maintained Mercedes-Benz GLS, 105,000 miles is not excessive. These vehicles are engineered for longevity, and when serviced properly — with attention to oil change intervals, air suspension components, and spark plug replacement — it's common to see GLS models remain reliable well past 150,000 to 180,000 miles. The key is documented maintenance history and a pre-purchase inspection.

What does the GLS 450 4MATIC trim include?

The GLS 450 4MATIC is the entry point into the GLS lineup, but "entry point" is relative — it includes the turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, 4MATIC all-wheel drive, the dual 12.3-inch MBUX display system, three-row seating for seven, a panoramic sunroof, premium leather upholstery, and a comprehensive suite of driver assistance technologies. It's fully loaded by most real-world standards.

What is the difference between the GLS 450 and GLS 580?

The GLS 450 uses a turbocharged inline-six engine while the GLS 580 upgrades to a twin-turbocharged V8. The 580 offers more horsepower and a sportier character, but many drivers find the 450's inline-six more than adequate for everyday use and long-distance travel. The 450 also tends to be more cost-effective to own and maintain over time.

Is AWD standard on the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS?

Yes — 4MATIC all-wheel drive is standard on the GLS 450 sold in the United States. The system monitors traction conditions continuously and distributes torque to all four wheels as needed, making it well-suited for both city driving in wet conditions and light adventures outside of San Diego's urban core.
