最近谍照记者拍到了正在进行冬季测试的奔驰GL改款车(GLS)照片。这款奔驰旗舰级SUV将进行中期改款，由于改款主要仅限于前后保险杠和引擎盖，因此车身造型风格并未有明显变化。前大灯和尾灯组也略微改款，内装将获得一定升级。该车未来将更名为GLS并将增加更豪华的迈巴赫衍生车型。预计新车动力系统仍将与老款车共享，不会有任何变化，包括最近发布的GL400，搭载一台3.0升V6双涡轮增压引擎，功率245千瓦/333马力，扭矩480牛米。而更名后的奔驰GLS将在明年主要车展发布。

 

Mercedes-Benz GLS spied up close

The Mercedes-Benz GL facelift (GLS) has returned in a fresh batch of spy shots while the prototype was undergoing winter testing.

 

Mercedes-Benz's flagship SUV is about to receive a mid-cycle refresh which as noticeable in these images won't be very significant since the styling tweaks will be limited to the bumpers and hood. The headlights & taillights will also be going through mild surgery while the interior is bound to receive a few updates.

 

The facelifted GL will be commercialized with the GLS moniker as part of the new nomenclature and it could also spawn a more luxurious Maybach derivative slotted within the newly established Mercedes-Maybach sub-brand.

 

Engine lineup is expected to be carried over without any changes and will include the recently introduced twin-turbo V6 3.0-liter in the GL400 where it delivers 333 HP (245 kW) and 354 lb-ft (480 Nm) of torque.

 

The Mercedes-Benz GLS will be unveiled at a major auto show sometime in 2015.
