Best Mercedes-Benz models to roadtrip in

Now that you have your essential checklist and your road trip destination, it’s time to find the right model that can get you there and back again reliably. Here are a few of our top picks:

  • Mercedes-Benz A-Class
  • Mercedes-Benz C-Class
  • Mercedes-Benz GLA
  • Mercedes-Benz GLB
  • Mercedes-Benz GLE

If you’re going to drive a sedan, we suggest either the A-Class or the C-Class. These two are easy to drive and carry a reasonable EPA-estimated fuel economy. However, if you want a bit more space, the GLA, GLB, and GLE are all quality models that not only have the power needed to drive up and over mountain roads, but they also have spacious interiors and are ready to drive whatever trail you need. Both the GLA and GLB are off-road models as well, so if you are facing rougher terrain, these two are models you’ll want to drive!

You can find every model on this list and more at Mercedes-Benz of Scottsdale. We look forward to helping you find your dream car today!
