Car Information and Specifications

One of the most noteworthy introductions in recent years, Mercedes-Benz entered the luxury sport utility market in 1997 with the 1998 ML320. Built exclusively in a new, state-of-the-art plant in Alabama, the M-Class boasts a fully independent suspension and sophisticated 4-wheel-drive system. The ML320 aluminum V6 is also an all-new design and the first production V6 for Mercedes-Benz. According to the automaker, the main goal for the M-Class was to combine superior off-road capability with the ride and handling expected from a Mercedes-Benz. Mercedes added the V8 powered ML430 for the 1999 model year.

The new ML320 can be described with a term that no other SUV before it can be - no compromises. It is the state of the art in SUV’s, and elevates the genre into a true all-round vehicle. It is Lexus and Range Rover prestige, at the price of a Ford or Jeep. The Sport Utility bar has been raised, and Mercedes-Benz has taken a giant leap over it.
