最近有人拍到了奔驰GLS改款车照片。这款奔驰最大的SUV将进行中期改款，虽然该车名称从GL更名为GLS，但外观变化很小。前后保险杠轻度改款，前大灯和尾灯组造型也有所改变。另外，车厢内预计也将有小改款，2016款车型将与GLE & GLE轿跑车进行相同幅度升级。奔驰先前曾表示计划推出迈巴赫版本和长轴距版，甚至GLS轿跑车，但最终并未决定增加这两个版本。至于标准版GLS，该车将于今年底发布，奔驰形容今年为“SUV之年”，继GLE，GLE轿跑车和GLC之后，明年还将发布GLC轿跑车。

 

Facelifted Mercedes-Benz GL (renamed GLS) spied in motion

Here's another look at the upcoming facelift Mercedes-Benz is preparing for the GL. 

 

The X166 generation of Mercedes-Benz's biggest SUV is about to receive a mid-cycle update and despite the name change from GL to GLS, the cosmetic revisions will only be minor. The company's designers have applied a modest nip & tuck to the front and rear bumpers and they also changed the graphics of both front & rear lighting clusters. Some subtle revisions are expected inside the cabin where the 2016 GL will be updated in the same vein as the GLE & GLE Coupe duo. 

 

Mercedes-Benz previously said they are thinking about a more luxurious Maybach version with a longer wheelbase and they are also analyzing the prospects of coming out with a GLS Coupe, but a final decision regarding the two has not been taken yet.

 

As for the regular GLS, it will be out before the end of 2015 in what Mercedes-Benz has described as being the "year of the SUV" after launching the GLE, GLE Coupe and the all-new GLC which will be joined next year by a   GLC Coupe.
