2012 Mercedes-Benz ML Caught Without Camouflage

It seems that both structurally and in terms of product, parts sharing and efficiency are increasingly becoming key concepts. The new Mercedes-Benz ML-Class SUV could embrace both concepts with a much closer link to the next G-Class and R-Class as well as more forward-looking powertrains. 
The next-generation ML is largely a matter of speculation. Still, a 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML-Class 250 Bluetec has been spotted in front of Meilenwerk, Stuttgart. The brand new third generation ML was released in June and will have its official debut at the IAA 2011 in Frankfurt in September.

European models will likely get a 2.2-liter four-cylinder diesel engine rated at 204 horsepower. A V-6 diesel rated at 225 horsepower and a 333 horsepower V-6 gasoline engine is also thought to be in the plans. The V-8 engine will gain direct-injection and twin-turbochargers for the AMG model, which is expected to deliver at least 570 horsepower from its 5.5-liters of displacement.

The car maker will offer three variants: 2012 ML 250 Bluetec 4Matic, 2012 ML 350 Bluetec 4Matic and 2012 ML 350 4Matic BlueEfficiency. The exterior design is a lot more sleeker and more sculpted, while keeping the true ML-Class style.

The interior of the new Mercedes-Benz has a redesigned cabin, providing more front and rear elbow room.
For the time being we will be waiting for the first information and pictures of the new upcoming ML AMG version.
