2013 All-new Mercedes Benz GL

The new 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL is a seven passenger luxury family hauler that’s built in the United States. It is one of Mercedes-Benz most popular models in the US because it combines off-road ruggedness with room for seven passengers. You can also have the new 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL with four different engine choices including a diesel and a ground ripping AMG version.

Cosmetically, the GL and ML appear to share front doors, but are otherwise pretty different. The GL has been given its own, far more aggressive style, and we have to say it’s pretty handsome. Up front, the crossover features projector lamps and some LED light signatures, as well as a simple two-slat grille. A rising rear fender flare starts ahead of the wheel arch and then curves up and around toward the rear; it’s a familiar design element common to many modern Benzes and might be most successful here. For some stylistic familiarity, the first-gen GL’s D-pillar design was reapplied to this new model.

Power for the GL comes from three sources, and they’re divvied up among GL350, GL450, and GL550 models. The GL350 features a 3.0-liter BlueTec diesel V-6 making 240 hp and 455 lb-ft of torque, hefty increases from the 210 hp and 400 lb-ft stumped up by the outgoing diesel GL. The GL450 and GL550 once again use V-8 power, but this time they get two tunes of the same engine: Benz’s widely used twin-turbo 4.7-liter V-8. It makes 362 hp and 406 lb-ft in the GL450, up from 355 hp and 339 lb-ft of its predecessor’s naturally aspirated 4.7. The GL550 now boasts 429 hp and 516 lb-ft; the outgoing model’s naturally aspirated 5.5-liter V-8 produced 382 hp and 391 lb-ft.

All three engines mate to a seven-speed automatic transmission, and all GLs come with 4MATIC all-wheel drive and Benz’s Airmatic air suspension. As was the case before, the diesel 350 and the gasoline 450 include essentially the same equipment and features. Both come standard with 19-inch wheels and offer optional 20s. MB-Tex synthetic leather is the default seating material in the GL350 and 450. Given that the 2013 GL probably will start north of $60,000, we’d expect actual leather to be included.

All-new Jaguar F-Type Coupe & R



5-liter supercharged V8 engine and will reach 60 mph in 4.0 seconds, and a top speed of 186 mph (electronically limited)2. The F-TYPE S Coupe and F-TYPE Coupe are powered by 3-liter supercharged V6 engines in 380hp and 340hp forms respectively, giving 0-60 mph in 4.8/5.1 seconds and top speeds of 171/161 mph2.

The F-TYPE Coupe visual message is defined by three key ‘heart lines’, that visual message beginning with the formidable grille. It is from the twin ‘shark gill’ openings that sit either side of the grille that the essential first heart line – which mirrors the design of the F-TYPE Convertible – flows and begins to take shape. Running up through the headlamp, and accentuated by the LED ‘J blade’ signature running lamps, the line then arcs up over the front wheel arch before dropping elegantly as it runs through the door, washing out into the muscular rear haunch.

The second heart line begins at the rear edge of the door, swelling outwards and upwards to create a visually strong wheel arch, emphasizing the car’s rear-wheel drive layout, before dropping vertically through the tail lamp ...
