When drivers wished for a versatile, capable vehicle
with all the virtues of a Mercedes-Benz, the original
M-Class became more than just the first SUV of its
kind. It created an ever-advancing blueprint for other
SUVs to follow, year after year. And with its athletic
performance, acclaimed safety and attentive luxury,
the M-Class inspires its own driver, day after day.
ML 250 BlueTEC. A new twin-turbo
4 -cylinder clean diesel1 motivates the
most efficient M- Class. Its versatile
AGILITY CONTROL® suspension and
4matic® all- wheel drive deliver driving
pleasure on any road, in any season.
ML 350. A Direct Injection gasoline
V-6 matches smooth power with the
stylish moves of standard 19" wheels.
Choose from sporty rear-wheel drive
or nimble 4matic all-wheel drive. An
expanded array of options enhances
its capabilities both on-road and off.
ML 400. A new biturbo V- 6 combines
the acceleration of a V-8 without the
appetite for fuel. AMG styling and 19"
wheels highlight its performance. Its
cabin puts the spotlight on comfort,
with a lengthy list of standard luxuries.
ML 63 AMG. A handcrafted 518 -hp
biturbo V-8 and hand-finished cabin
create a well-mannered SUV that’s
anything but mild-mannered. Earthtrembling torque is matched with a
corner-taming AIRMATIC® suspension

The M- Class is designed to be a perfect fit — for you, and for how
you enjoy life. The sleek body wraps taut muscle around a flexible
cabin. LED lighting and brilliant chrome accentuate its precision.
And each of its crisp lines is honed in the wind tunnel, to refine
not just how it looks from any angle, but how it feels on any road.

InformationProvidedby:
M-Class is a legendary Mercedes- Benz attribute, but it’s no
legend. Its substantial feel comes from actual substance.
A rigid uni-body, fully independent suspension and highly
refined aerodynamics all work in concert to make the ride
smoother, the handling more precise, and the cabin quieter.
Extensive development in virtual and actual wind tunnels
helps to cut drag and fuel consumption. It also enhances
stability, improving tire adhesion and mitigating the effects of
crosswinds on the highway. Its aerodynamic advances even
help the driver see better, with such details as side mirrors
designed to help keep road spray off the windows. Of course,
functionality isn’t nearly as enjoyable without a corresponding
degree of flair. So while the LED Daytime Running Lamps and
taillamps attract attention better, they capture admiring eyes
equally well. The stylish aluminum roof rails accommodate a
variety of accessory racks and containers. A chrome sill
plate helps protect the rear bumper when the power liftgate
is open for loading. And every M- Class takes to the road on
a substantial set of wheels — standard 18", 19" or 20" alloys,
with options up to 21", depending on model. The optional
Exterior Sport Package — standard on the ML 400 — wraps
athletic AMG® wheels in aggressive AMG body styling. The
ML 63 AMG has its own unique AMG wheels and bodywork.

Look back over the history of motoring, and you’ll see MercedesBenz engineers continually redefining the future. It’s a neverending
tradition to make dramatically new ideas feel immediately familiar —
intuitive for you to use, and easy to enjoy. It’s how features that you
never imagined become must-haves you never want to be without.

or relaxing along a favorite route, driving an M-Class offers
rewards no other SUV brings together. That’s because no
automaker has a richer history of wrapping groundbreaking
innovation in time- honored craftsmanship. It’s what turns
the instant sensations you feel in an M-Class into enduring
satisfaction. It starts with the premium materials and fine
tailoring that greet your eyes and hands. And it continues
along every drive, with the ergonomic design of its controls,
and the way even the most advanced systems connect with
your natural logic. You might call it the peaceful coexistence
of technology and timelessless. It’s evident in the way LEDs
and fiber- optics can encircle the cabin in a soothing glow.
Or how the front seats can comfort you with added warmth,
active cooling, or a massage for your back. You can even
access the Internet from the dash,3to help make sure your
destination is as enjoyable as going there. Mercedes-Benz
employs 1,300 state-of-the- art robots in the manufacture
of each M- Class. Not one of them is assigned to polish its
wood trim or fit the upholstery to its seats. Those, simply
put, require a human touch. Regardless of how advanced,
imaginative or futuristic an automobile may become, how it
makes you feel will still matter. Even if you never experience
time travel, an M- Class can assure you of time well spent.

An SUV that’s rugged isn’t so unusual. But how about
one that’s also nimble, or even fun? The M- Class was
the first of its kind to feature a 4-wheel independent
suspension — along with many other Mercedes-Benz
handling hallmarks, like a tight turning circle. It also
made a clever new use of technology first pioneered
for antilock brakes: The same sensors can also detect
wheelspin during acceleration. The breakthrough was
more than just groundbreaking. It’s ground-gripping
as well — enhancing control on wet roads, takeoffs in
loose gravel, and performance in dry corners. In any
season of the year, you’ll feel in touch with the road.
And wherever you drive, you’ll be on top of theworld.

clean diesel powerplant lets the ML 250
BlueTEC® go even farther on a gallon of
fuel.4 Two turbochargers give the 2.1-liter
inline- 4 more torque than some V-8s.
A fast- acting turbo boosts torque at low
rpm, with a larger, more powerful unit
adding power as revs increase. And all
369 lb-ft of its torque is on tap at just
1,600 rpm, for strong response off the
line and around town. With its ultralow
emissions, it’s cer tified in all 50 states.1
With up to 700 miles of highway driving
range per tankful, you can drive across
several of them without a fuel stop.
Power players. A pair of gasoline V-6s
use advanced technology to thrust you
forward more rapidly. Both the 302-hp
ML 350 and the new 329-hp ML 400 are
showcases of quick-thinking technology
that turns less fuel into more torque with
lower emissions. High-pressure Direct
Injection and a rapid-multispark ignition
system can both precisely self-tune in a
millisecond, to ignite the finely atomized
fuel as many as four times per cycle. The
ML 400’s two turbos — one for each bank
of cylinders — spool quickly and rapidly
to reach high rpm and boost pressure
with virtually no lag. The result is torque
output of 354 lb-ft from just 1,600 rpm,
and 0–60 mph in a mere 6.5 seconds.

Fingertip 7‑speed. The sporty, smooth
and efficient automatic transmission
features an intuitive electronic selector
and shift paddles — all fingertip -close to
the steering wheel. The paddles give you
instant manual control on demand.
Greener red lights. Waiting at a light or
for traffic to get going? ECO Start/Stop
(not available on the ML 350 models) can
automatically switch off the engine, to
help save fuel and emissions. As soon as
you’re ready to go, the engine restarts
when you lift your foot from the brake,
or the instant you press the accelerator.
Flexible muscle. The versatile 4-wheel
multilink suspension combines sedanlike
comfort and handling with SUV flexibility.
Innovative AGILITY CONTROL® reads the
road surface via the vertical movement
of each shock absorber. It can instantly
adjust their firmness for more precise
control in sharp corners, while keeping
the ride quality refined on rough roads.
Flatter cornering. The available ACTIVE
CURVE SYSTEM’s variable stabilizers
automatically tighten during cornering
maneuvers, to minimize body lean. In
gentle curves and in straight-line travel,
they relax, to optimize ride comfort. The
Sport mode of the adaptive suspension
sharpens their response even further.
7
Year‑round confidence. Optional on
the ML 350 and standard on all other
models is the surefooted performance
of 4matic® all- wheel drive. Its 4-wheel
Electronic Traction System (4-ETS®) can
automatically send the engine’s torque
to the wheels that have the best grip —
whether that’s all four wheels, two of
them, or even just one. And with light
weight, quick response and excellent
agility, 4matic enhances handling in any
season, from the depths of winter to the
delights of a back road in summer.6 For
the ML 350, standard rear-wheel drive
offers even higher efficiency with the
handling balance of a sporty sedan.
Fortified exploring. A suite of options
collaborate to elevate the capabilities of
the M- Class in off-road adventures, while
enhancing on- road performance, too. The
optional On/Off-Road Package’s rotary
selector lets you choose any of six drive
programs for various terrains and driving
conditions: Auto, Sport, Snow, Trailer,
and two Off-road modes — both of which
increase ride height and fording depth.
2
Each mode provides specific settings for
the AIRMATIC® adaptive air suspension,
automatic level control, and the 2-speed
transfer case. Downhill Speed Regulation
(DSR), when activated, can automatically
maintain a preset crawl speed with your
feet off the pedals, helping make steep
descents more consistent and allowing
you to focus on steering the vehicle.

For 47 years, AMG has been creating championship racecars
and thoroughbreds for the street. Every trophy earned, and
each lesson learned, has shared the same starting line: an
engine crafted by the hands of its own master. “One man, one
engine” is more than a guiding philosophy — it’s a pedigree of
performance that’s evident throughout the vehicle. And it’s
a promise made during the rigors of competition that every
Mercedes-AMG fulfills even in the routine of a daily commute.
ML 63 AMG. Crafted by the hands of its own
master engine builder, the ML 63’s biturbo
V- 8 pours out 518hp. Its torrential 516lb-ft
of torque is expertly distributed by standard
AMG Performance 4matic® all-wheel drive with
an exclusive 40:60 front/rear torque split. The
setup optimizes handling dynamics — especially
when cornering on dry pavement — and can
launch the SUV to 60 mph in 4.7seconds.5
Epic. Four AMG tailpipes emit a symphony of
performance. Yet an ECO Start/Stop system
is one of many measures to elevate efficiency
and lower emissions in everyday driving.

The independent agencies that perform their own crash -testing are highly respected for their unbiased
assessment, and their continually advancing criteria and methods. In the latest tests, the M-Class earned
their highest acclaim: 5 stars overall from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,8 and one of
the very first “Top Safety Pick+” ratings for a luxury SUV from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
In the M-Class, “safety first” means it’s engineered to be an integrated system of safety innovations — all
helping make the most of the precious seconds it takes to avoid a collision, or survive the unavoidable.

Radar-based technology that watches the road ahead.
When driving at speeds above 4 mph, standard COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST employs radar
to continuously scan for slower or stopped vehicles ahead. If it senses that a collision is likely, it
audibly alerts you to start braking. The instant you do, its Adaptive Brake Assist can automatically
increase braking to the ideal level to avoid a collision, or reduce its severity.10 Optional DISTRONIC
PLUS® takes this a step further. In everyday driving, its adaptive cruise control feature can pace
your speed to the flow of traffic, even if the car ahead slows to a stop. If it detects an impending
collision, its pioneering PRE-SAFE® Brake springs into action. In addition to alerting the driver,
PRE-SAFE Brake can also apply the brakes autonomously to help prevent or mitigate a collision.11

COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST takes action:
1. Radar senses a slower-moving vehicle ahead.
2.An audible tone and lighted icon alert the driver to brake.

1 Requires ultralow-sulfur diesel fuel. Mercedes-Benz approves the use of B5 biodiesel (diesel fuel with maximum 5 % biodiesel content) that meets
ASTM D6751 specifications. Please see your fuel retailer and Operator’s Manual for further information. The Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited
Warranty does not cover damage caused by non Mercedes-Benz approved fuel.
2 Of f-road driving should only be attempted by drivers with the necessary skill, experience and understanding of the vehicle’s limits. Read
Operator’s Manual before driving off-road or in deep water.
3 All Mercedes-Benz mbrace® services operate only where cellular and Global Positioning System satellite signals are available, which are provided
by third parties and not within the control of Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. An mbrace Package trial period is offered on new, Certified Pre-Owned
and pre-owned sales and leases at an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer. Subscriber Agreement is required for service to be active. Some services
are only available on select vehicles. Your PIN is required in order to use certain services. Some services may be limited or restricted in some areas.
Apps may be introduced and updated at varying dates, and may also require a vehicle software update. Driver is responsible for complying with
traffic and other laws. See your dealer or MBUSA.com/mbrace for details, including a list of compatible smartphones. Internet-based features
require Premium Package and an active subscription to mbrace Mercedes-Benz Apps Package. Connection may be limited by cellular signal.
4 2015 EPA estimated fuel economy figures unavailable at time of printing. Please see your dealer. Compare the estimated mpg to the estimated
mpg of other vehicles. You may get different mileage depending on how fast you drive, weather conditions and trip length. Your actual highway
mileage will probably be less than the highway estimate. Driving range based on preliminary estimate of highway mpg and fuel tank capacity.
5 Stated rates of acceleration are estimated based upon manufacturer’s track results and may vary depending on model, environmental and road
surface conditions, driving style, elevation and vehicle load.
6 No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless driving. Please always wear your seat belt.
Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions.
Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires.
7 Requires special-order AIRMATIC® suspension. Special-order options incur a one-time surcharge. Please see your dealer for details.
8 Star ratings are par t of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safercar.gov program (www.safercar.gov).
9 For more information on the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the 2014 Top Safety Pick+ awards, visit www.iihs.org.
10 COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST may not be sufficient to avoid an accident. It does not react to certain stationary objects, nor recognize or
predict the curvature and/or lane layout of the road or every movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at all times to be
attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle.
Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the system’s alerts before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time and distance to brake safely.
11 DISTRONIC PLUS® adaptive cruise control is no substitute for active driving involvement. It does not adapt cruising speed in response to stationary
objects, nor does it predict the curvature and lane layout of the road ahead or the movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at
all times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs necessary to retain control of
the vehicle. Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the DISTRONIC Proximity Warning System before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time
and distance to brake safely. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake maintenance, and tire and road conditions.
12Standard or no charge on ML 400 and/or ML 63 AMG. Please see optional equipment charts in this brochure or visit MBUSA.com/M for details.
13Blind Spot Assist may not be sufficient to avoid all accidents involving vehicles in your blind spot and does not estimate the speed of approaching
vehicles. It must not be used as a sole substitute for driver awareness and checking of surrounding traffic conditions.
14Driving while drowsy or distracted is dangerous and must be avoided. ATTENTION ASSIST® and/or Lane Keeping Assist may be insufficient to

people than they are for automobiles. Instilling the values of leadership, goal- setting, discipline and
teamwork in youth is an investment in everyone’s future. It’s why Mercedes- Benz USA is collaborating
with the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, with an ongoing commitment to train and place hundreds
of coaches for after-school and in-school sports programs in communities around the country. Sports
offer kids more than the chance to be physically active and have fun. It’s also an opportunity to have
a mentor who can guide them, help them learn how to deal with major life issues, and help them grow
stronger not just physically but in their character. As a Mercedes-Benz driver, you become a part of
this effort to give hundreds of thousands of kids a better life today, and all of us a brighter tomorrow.
