Mercedes-Benz GLS Vs Range Rover Sport FAQs

The ex-showroom price of the Mercedes-Benz GLS starts at ₹1.30 crore for the GLS 450 petrol and goes up to ₹1.34 crore for the GLS 450d diesel. Special AMG Line variants are also available at a higher price.

Yes, the Mercedes-Benz GLS is a full-size luxury SUV with a standard 7-seater configuration. It offers plenty of space for families, friends, or luggage, making long trips comfortable for all passengers while keeping the premium feel typical of a Mercedes.

The GLS 450 petrol engine generates 375 bhp and 500 Nm of torque. The GLS 450d diesel engine produces 362 bhp and 750 Nm of torque. The mild-hybrid system provides an additional boost.

The ARAI-certified mileage for the Mercedes-Benz GLS is approximately 10.5 kmpl for the diesel variant and around 9 kmpl for the petrol variant, with user-reported figures varying slightly.

With all three rows of seats in place, the GLS has a boot space of around 493 liters. This can be significantly expanded by folding the third and second-row seats.

Yes, the GLS is a very safe vehicle. It comes with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating and is equipped with up to 9 airbags and a suite of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

The Maybach GLS is the ultra-luxurious, chauffeur-driven version of the GLS. It is a 4-seater and features an even higher level of luxury, craftsmanship, and exclusive features like a refrigerator and rear-seat entertainment screens.

The Range Rover Sport is priced around ₹1.38 Crore ex-showroom

This SUV stretches about 4.946 meters (≈16.2 ft) in length, 2.209 meters (≈7.24 ft) in width, and stands about 1.820 meters (≈5.97 ft) tall, with a wheelbase about 2.997 meters (≈9.83 ft). Ground clearance is in the range of 210-249 mm depending on variant. The sheer size means tight parking or narrow lanes may test your nerves—but cabin space, road presence, and comfort are excellent pay-offs.

The Sport comes with multiple powertrains: diesel mild-hybrid, petrol V6, even plug-in hybrid or twin-turbo V8 in top trims. Torque figures are high (around 700 Nm for diesel V6), and horsepower ranges depending on variant (mid-300 bhp upwards). AWD (all-wheel drive) and air suspension are common, ensuring both performance and comfort.

As per ARAI and real-world, you might expect about 10 kmpl overall for diesel/petrol variants in mixed driving, dropping to ~8 kmpl in city traffic, ~11 kmpl on highways. At ₹102/litre, a 100-km drive in city costs ~₹1,275; highway maybe ~₹930-₹1,100 depending on variant. Fuel becomes a major chunk of ongoing cost.

Yes, though with caveats. The Range Rover Sport offers supreme comfort, tech, and presence for highway cruising and premium long trips. But in dense city or narrow roads, its width (~2.2 m), longer length (~4.95 m), and turning radius can make tight manoeuvres challenging. Also fuel cost and parking cost scale up in city. If you have chauffeur, parking facility, and strong service backup, then urban use is manageable.

The Range Rover Sport has a boot space of 835 liters, enough for 6 medium suitcases or 4 golf bags. Fold the rear seats and you can plan week-long family trips with ease. This luggage capacity makes it one of the most practical premium SUVs in its class.

Yes, the Range Rover Sport handles Indian highways brilliantly with adaptive air suspension and AWD. However, in congested city lanes, its 2.2-meter width and luxury paintwork might test your patience. It’s better suited for wide roads and premium urban zones.

The annual maintenance cost of the Range Rover Sport is around ₹1.5–2.5 lakh, depending on usage. A regular service costs about ₹50,000–₹60,000, while tyres can cost ₹20,000–30,000 each. Insurance adds another ₹1–1.2 lakh yearly. For buyers at this level, it’s about keeping reliability and resale value intact.

The Range Rover Sport is ideal for business owners, luxury lifestyle enthusiasts, and professionals who want status and comfort along with performance. It suits those who prefer chauffeur-driven comfort in the city and self-driven thrill on highways.
