Additionally, a new off-road mode along with a 360-degree camera offers enhanced visibility of the surroundings, including the "transparent bonnet" display.

Mercedes-Benz GLS Facelift - Powertrain 

In terms of powertrain, the GLS facelift will continue to be equipped with the same 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel engine that offers a power output of 326 bhp and 700 Nm of peak torque. It is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission paired with a 4MATIC all-wheel drive system. While the current GLS in India is exclusively available with a diesel engine, the facelifted model is anticipated to introduce a 3.0-litre petrol engine this time.
