如果有人觉得奔驰GLS还不够豪华的话，车厂最近宣布，将于年中在美国市场发布Grand限量版。相比于普通版车型而言，这款Grand限量版在配置方面更多的强调了奢华感。在车辆内部，奔驰GLS Grand限量版以纳帕真皮作为内饰的主要面料包裹，另外面料的缝制工艺采用钻石绗缝的设计。内饰配色以瓷白色为主，饰板辅以意式浓咖啡的配色来进行点缀。另外饰板也采用了木纹饰板，地毯也采用了天鹅绒的面料。整体的内饰效果非常的高档。这款Grand限量版版的奔驰GLS基于GLS 450 4MATIC打造，在外观方面也提供了20英寸的十辐条轮圈以及LED智能大灯。如果用户选择GLS 550AMG车型，那么在外观配置方面则提供了21英寸的AMG双五辐轮圈。Grand限量版将在北美车展首次发布。至于全新一代奔驰GLS，新车将会基于奔驰的MHA平台打造，在动力方面提供3.0L直列六缸引擎，或许还会增加混动版，而顶配车型提供V8引擎，车厢内采用数字座舱。
Mercedes GLS Grand Edition Gets Nappa Leather For Last Hurrah
If the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class somehow isn't luxurious enough for you, the company plans to bring the opulent Grand Edition model to the United States in mid 2018.
The Grand Edition models gain Nappa leather upholstery in Porcelain white with diamond quilting, and smaller sections of Espresso Brown hides add a dark accent to the cabin, including the leather-wrapped dashboard. Open-pore brown ash wood trim and Espresso Brown velour floor mats give the interior a high-end appearance.
On the GLS450 4Matic, the Grand Edition package will also come with 20-inch, 10-spoke wheels with a two-tone finish and Mercedes' LED Intelligent Light System. If buyers tick this option box on the GLS550 4Matic, the SUV wears 21-inch wheels with five sets of double spokes, and the model has Active LED headlights. Both of them have "Grand Edition" badges, too.
The Grand Edition models will premiere in the U.S. at the North American International Auto Show. The Grand Edition will add a little life to the GLS-Class before the new generation's arrival, which will likely be in 2019. Spy photos already show the vehicle under development (gallery above). The big SUV moves to Mercedes' MHA platform, which should cause some weight to come off the scales. Under the hood, the GLS might use the automaker's new 3.0-liter inline six, possibly as a hybrid, and top variants would have V8 power. Inside, a modern, fully digital cockpit would be a welcome addition to the big SUV and make it more competitive with rivals.
