From inside (document excerpt):
2011 GL-Class Introducing the 2011 GL-Class. For more information, please visit MBUSA.com/GLClass More than a full-size SUV. A more fulfilling SUV. What drives us to create a vehicle with luxurious accommodations for seven, abundant towing power, and the wealth of performance, safety and innovation you expect from a Mercedes-Benz? In a word, capacity. Beyond how much you can fit into it, how much you can get out of a vehicle reveals the engineering capacity of its creators. Only a full-size SUV that’s been engineered by Mercedes-Benz can trace its lineage directly to the invention of the first car — and the first truck — well over a century ago.

The mission of the GL-Class was therefore never just to be bigger in size, but larger in the scope of its character: Enormously protective of your family. Brimming with useful technology. And supremely confident, both on-road and off. Full-size luxury is one way the 2011 GL-Class measures up to your life. But it’s just one of its many dimensions. GL 450 shown on covers with optional Steel Grey metallic paint, KEYLESS-GO, and Appearance and Premium 1 Packages. GL 450 shown above with Black paint, and optional KEYLESS-GO and Lighting Package. GL 350 BlueTEC shown with optional Palladium Silver metallic paint, brushed aluminum running boards, PARKTRONIC, and Lighting and Premium 1 Packages. Please see endnotes at back of brochure. Up for anything, yet remarkably down to earth. Full-time response. Far-reaching responsibility. The three engines of the GL-Class all share two powerful traits: The mighty torque necessary to motivate a full-size SUV. And certified Ultra Low Emissions, to motivate every other SUV on the planet. Two gasoline-powered V-8 engines deliver breathtaking acceleration. While a 50-state clean diesel BlueTEC V-6 breaks down its nitrogen oxide emissions into harmless nitrogen and oxygen, for torque-rich performance that can help everyone breathe easier. To wield its power even more wisely, every GL-Class features a smooth 7-speed automatic transmission and efficient 4maticTM all-wheel drive1 that continually directs the engine’s torque to the tires with the best grip — in snow, mud or even dry corners.
