Which Mercedes-Benz SUV can travel the furthest on a full tank of gas?

Within the Mercedes-Benz lineup, the SUV that can travel the furthest on one full tank of gas is the 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE300d. At 713.4 miles, you could make it almost halfway across the country without stopping, which is actually kind of creepy, but an accomplishment nonetheless.

Most Fuel Efficient Mercedes-Benz SUV

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 is the most fuel efficient Mercedes-Benz SUV. It is the cheapest to fill up and it travels further for every dollar spent. The only downside to it is it’s small gas tank. Ironically, with the GLA, you will spend more time at gas stations but you will save the most money. Additionally, the benefit of the diesel engine is non-existent at the current market prices. Now leave a comment!
