Everywhere it goes, the 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLS SUV turns heads, with a wide array of exterior finishes, paint colors, and wheel designs for a bold, personalized road presence.
The GLS commands attention with its bold Star-centered grille and self-assured stance, now offered in an expanded color selection featuring MANUFAKTUR exclusives like Silicon Grey and Cote d'Azur Light Blue Metallic, delivering a uniquely refined finish.
Give the 2026 GLS a bolder edge with the optional AMG Line exterior package, delivering a sportier look through flared wheel arches, larger front brake discs, and Sport-tuned front and rear bumpers. Standard 21-inch alloys come on the GLS 450, while the GLS 580 boasts AMG 22-inch wheels—both offering the choice to upgrade to 23-inch AMG wheels.
If you're drawn to a bold, blacked-out look, the Night Package offers high-gloss black exterior accents, black wheel choices, and a darkened chrome front grille for a sleek, stealthy vibe.
The 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLS redefines practical luxury, featuring leather upholstery in more than 10 finishes, premium standard amenities, and versatile seating for up to seven passengers across three spacious, generously proportioned rows.
Make every drive uniquely yours in the 2026 GLS, featuring exclusive MANUFAKTUR leather upholstery in Yacht Blue, Truffle Brown, and Carmine Red for a personalized, bespoke luxury cabin experience.
Every GLS comes standard with three-row seating, offering a choice of middle-row configurations: a three-person bench seat or individual captain's chairs with a convenient walk-through to the third row. The power-folding rear seats make switching between passengers and cargo effortless.
Front power seats offer memory, heating, and ventilation, with available massage plus heated armrests and steering wheel. Enhance the second row with the Executive Rear Seat Package, while an optional air ionizer with subtle fragrance infusion maintains a fresh, refined cabin atmosphere throughout every drive.
The 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLS comes packed with advanced technology built to boost safety, elevate comfort, and deliver confident driving in every situation you encounter.
Safety comes standard in the 2026 GLS, featuring a comprehensive suite of active safety technologies, including Blind Spot Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, and Brake Assist. Standard DISTRONIC® automatically adjusts cruising speed for stop-and-go traffic, posted speed limits, and upcoming navigation turns, while Active Steering Assist comes included for added confidence behind the wheel.
Family safety is at the core of the 2026 GLS's design. Rear side airbags and extended airbag coverage help shield second and third-row occupants, including young passengers, while ISOFIX anchor points across the rear rows ensure secure child seat installation. Adding another layer of protection, the PRE-SAFE® system proactively readies the cabin ahead of a potential collision, helping safeguard everyone on board before impact ever happens.
Standard AIRMATIC® delivers multimode damping, adjustable ride height, and four-wheel level control that automatically compensates for passengers and cargo. GLS 580 shoppers can also step up to E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL, which continuously adapts suspension settings, responding dynamically to real-time road conditions.
