Specifications & Summary
Summary
Of all the new crop of compact crossover cute-utes, the 2009 Mercedes-Benz GLK is most like those steeplechasers who leap over obstacles and run through water features on the way to the finish line. Compared to the sprinters, they're not pretty to watch, but the steeplechasers are one tough crowd, and that's a characteristic we're looking for especially in a type of vehicle that claims a serious work ethic. The Mercedes GLK not only fulfills this mission, it does so with an almost imperious ease.
