The 3 litre engine of the ML-350CDI SUV will be diesel, a requirement that is expected to extend throughout the whole of the ML-Class SUV range in 2012. One thing that any car fan will want to know, from those who like to look at them on the internet before playing partypoker, to those who avidly collect expensive models of the latest vehicle, is will this new SUV be more powerful than previous ML-Class versions? The answer to this question is ‘yes’, as it will be capable of producing a maximum power of 258 bhp and a peak torque of 620 nm.
There will be a 4MATIC four wheel drive system, so that the torque and power transmission will be carried through to all four wheels of the car, and it will be able to reach a top speed of 224 kph. A lot of hype is expected to surround this car, and the launch will no doubt be greatly anticipated.
