This year’s crop of luxury SUVs for sale in North America is even more luxurious and elegant than their predecessors. For example, the 2017 GLS 450 has a shining personality, while the 2017 Q7 stands out from the crowd with its advanced technologies. If you want to buy one of these SUVs and are curious to find out which of the two is the best vehicle to purchase, read the following comparative article.
With its twin turbo engine that is both powerful and efficient, the 2017 GLS 450 is powered to 362 horsepower and 369 lb.-ft. or torque. Although its engine is powerful, the Q7 still can’t reach more than 333 horsepower and 325 lb.-ft. We can say, without a doubt, that the Mercedes has a slight advantage over its rival who seems to be dragging its feet.
As for loading capacity, the 2017 GLS 450 is extremely spacious and contains up to 2 300 L. On the other hand, the 2017 Audi Q7 is still coming up short, offering only 2 028 L, which is nearly 300 fewer litres than its rival. If we rely only on the Car Guide, the Mercedes SUV is also considered to be safer and was given a 90% rating (compared to 80% for the Q7).
Finally, although the 2017 Audi Q7 is less expensive than the Mercedes, it still doesn’t offer the better quality to price ratio of the two cars. In fact, the 2017 Mercedes-Benz Class GLS 450 4Matic is a better performer, more spacious and safer than its rival. As a result, we can conclude that if you want to come out a winner on this purchase, your best bet is to choose the 2017 GLS 450 4Matic.
