The M-Class is a mid-size sport utility vehicle manufactured by German automaker Mercedes-Benz. First introduced in 1997, it has met with great success, especially in the United States and Mexico. It is distinguished by being the first luxury SUV to feature stability control, a system which applies selective braking in the event it detects the vehicle is losing control.
Current models are powered by a wide variety of engines ranging from a 3.5L V6 all the way to a 6.2L V8. The M-Class also features Mercedes’s new 7 speed automatic transmission.
