The large and imposing Mercedes GL SUV has been given a light Sport Black treatment by Kicherer. Based on the GL420 CDI diesel, the car gets a black outfit, new wheels and a little bit more power.
Actually it’s a little bit more than just a little bit! Thanks to a range of modifications on the car’s 4.2 liter V8 common rail turbo diesel engine, including KICHERER PowerConverter and new exhausts, the power output has gone up from 306 HP and 700 Nm to 380 HP and 900 Newton meters.
The gangsta looking Merc also gets a set of 10×22 inch Vogue wheel rims and XXL size 295/35R22 tires and matte black exclusive foil, covering the whole body including the off-road package, and an ergonomic sports steering wheel.
So the Sport Black treatment is fairly subtle, but it’s good to give your GL a fresh new look and stop you from trading it in for something more sporty!
