Design Mercedes-Benz GLK

In order to make room in the Mercedes range for the recently introduced GLA, the new GLK will be slightly larger than the model it replaces.

Looking at the images you can see front axle of the GLK has been moved forward slightly and the bonnet stretched to accommodate the larger wheelbase.

Engine Mercedes-Benz GLK

Mechanically, engine options are likely to be the same as you’ll find in the redesigned C-Class due one year before the GLK, in 2014.

A new entry-level turbocharged 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol engine could be available with the turbocharged 2.1-litre four-pot diesel likely to be carried over into the new GLK 250 BlueTEC. A 3.0-litre V6 diesel motor should remain in the Mercedes GLK 350.
