Horsepower and torque of the Mercedes-Benz SUV lineup

as we’ve said, below you can find a list of the six different Mercedes-Benz SUV’s from 2021. If you take a close look, you’ll notice that the Mercedes-Benz GLA and the Mercedes-Benz GLB both start with 221 horsepower. However, the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA has a top horsepower of 382, compared to the 302 horsepower of the GLB. That puts the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLB as the least powerful SUV model in the Mercedes-Benz lineup. However, if you go up to the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GL S, you will notice that it starts at 362 horsepower and goes all the way up to 603 horsepower. This is slightly similar to the GLE, which goes all the way up to 603 horsepower, but starts at a lower horsepower than the GLS.
