What type of suspension does the Mercedes-Benz GLS use?
1 Answers
The Mercedes-Benz GLS uses double-wishbone independent suspension for both front and rear suspensions. The double-wishbone independent suspension, also known as double-A-arm independent suspension, features upper and lower wishbones of unequal length. This design allows the vehicle to automatically adjust the camber angle during driving, which helps reduce tire wear to some extent. The Mercedes-Benz GLS is a mid-cycle update of the GL-Class, featuring changes in both exterior and interior design compared to the GL-Class, along with the adoption of a new 9-speed automatic transmission. The dimensions of the new GLS are 4940mm in length, 1881mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with the wheelbase extended by 20mm to 2874mm.
