Why hire the Mercedes GLS Black
Under the hood sits a 3.0-liter inline-six turbocharged engine producing 367 HP, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. In city traffic, the engine barely makes itself known at low revs — the gearbox shifts early and quietly, which matters when you’re spending an hour on Sheikh Zayed Road in stop-and-go. The 4MATIC all-wheel drive distributes torque continuously between axles, keeping the car composed on both dry asphalt and the occasional wet interchange.
Inside, the cabin is finished in Nappa leather, genuine wood trim, and brushed metal. The MBUX infotainment system responds to voice and touch without lag. Air suspension absorbs speed bumps and road joints on Dubai’s elevated sections without passing the impact through to passengers — the ride stays flat and quiet regardless of what’s underneath.
If you’re comparing full-size luxury SUVs in Dubai, the GLS Black earns its place near the top of the shortlist: composed, quiet, and engineered to deliver cabin comfort and road presence in equal measure.
Ideal Scenarios for the Mercedes GLS Black
The GLS Black seats five adults with full legroom in both rows. The rear cabin is quiet enough for calls and briefings during the drive from DXB to DIFC or Downtown. It carries authority without demanding attention.
With space for up to 10 bags, the GLS Black handles full family luggage from the airport without compromise. The five-seat configuration leaves the full boot available — no need to choose between passengers and bags.
The 360-degree camera system makes parking in multilevel structures straightforward. The high seating position gives solid forward visibility in dense parking areas.
The 140 km from Dubai to Abu Dhabi takes under 90 minutes on a comfortable highway. One thing worth noting: the UAE speed buffer of +20 km/h applies on Dubai roads, but Abu Dhabi enforces strict limits with no buffer — plan your speed accordingly.
TipFor Abu Dhabi business trips, book the GLS Black for a minimum of 3 days. The rate drops and you avoid the premium of single-day urban rentals.

Mercedes GLS Black vs. Competitors
Against the BMW X7, the GLS Black has a softer air suspension tune and a smoother gearbox in slow traffic. The X7 is sportier in character — fine if that’s the priority — but less settled when crawling through Jumeirah at 40 km/h. The Cadillac Escalade is a different proposition: its V8 is vocal and its proportions make a statement. The GLS Black is the right choice when comfort, technology, and a measured presence matter more than sheer size.
Worth mentioning: if you want something closer to a performance SUV, the Lamborghini Urus is available in the fleet. Or, if you’re considering a saloon for executive transfers, the Mercedes S-Class is a natural alternative.
