Exterior

 stylish and aggressive and has dominating road presence.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

lacks the feel that the bmw or the audi offers. but its lower pricing could make way for its not upto the mark interiors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Mercedes could have brought in the new CDI 250 engine to have better mileage and performance. The current one however is comparable in perfromance and mileage to its peers.

Ride Quality & Handling

 fantastic handling. it could take on the indian roads with aplomb.

Final Words

 The ML GRAND EDITION at 50 lakhs is competitively priced than its peers BMW X5 and Audi q7(57 lakhs). at this price it is more value for money. The Ml class has better off roading capabilities than its rival bmw and audi. The Ml Grand Edition executive will fit in comfortably within the luxury top end suv's though priced lesser than its rivals.

Areas of improvement  

 with the new ML class 2012 arriving in APRIL 2012,the present car interiors could have been modified to suit the modern taste.

 

ML grand edition pricing. powerful engine, better suited for indian roads.interiors can be improverised.
