Overview
This is the third generation of Mercedes ML that was first launched in 1998, though visually it does not look a lot different from the previous model. However, there has been some major work done under the skin. This includes further work to the electronic systems to improve the ML’s already considerable off-road performance, but even more notable is its considerable on-road performance. So is it now good enough to take on the likes of the BMW X5 and Range Rover Sport? Read on to find out.
