Hello folks Rob Myers here at Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead
and I'm here today to talk to you about the beautiful new 2021 GLS 580.
Now as many of you may or may not know the GLS 580 well the GLS itself comes in different versions
so there's a 450 580 and the 63 and we're going to talk about the 580. Now this is a beautiful
car it's a full-size SUV as you know and this is the vehicle it's definitely suited for families
it's a standard seven passenger you have a no charge option to get it in a captain's chair
configuration this vehicle is equipped with the seven patch passenger setup so we're gonna take
a look at that and it's designed to give you more power so it's the standard you know GLS
450 customer that is you know doesn't need this the increase in horsepower so this has
a bi-turbo a four liter bi-turbo 8 cylinder engine in it it does have a 48 volt battery
and electric battery so you get 121 pound-feet of torque additional with the with the electric
motor and then 21 horsepower so you get a total of 483 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque
so the benefit really of the electric motor is that when you step on the accelerator it's
instant throttle response so you're in conjunction with being direct injection with conjunction with
being bi-turbo and then you add that electric motor the response on this is extremely quick so
it's a very responsive car when driving it because it is big and it's heavy. So this one is Diamond
White which is a very very popular color for us and it does have the larger sport wheels on it
all of the 580's this is a common question come up are all sport package so they all look like
this and if you'll notice here the door excuse me the wheel arches here are painted unlike you
see in the GLS 450 where it's all black so this is a beautifully equipped look here it gives it
a more sporty look this is the 21 inch wheel and it does have an option to go to a 23-inch wheel.
This does have the running boards and of course with all of our vehicles we have all the safety
features the surround view camera so you have cameras here the cameras here and well we're going
to talk about that and then you have a front facing camera here as well so it's beautiful
has a multi-beam led light great visibility it's just a beautiful car parking sensors
as we go along the side of it we can see the size of it's a big car it's definitely not an extended
version but it does have a lot of interior space and we're going to get to that in a minute.
One thing I wanted to show you that you can kind of notice about the car is the do the dual bars
here for the grill this is very nice you see the largest star here and then you see the parking
sensors here at the bottom these vehicles are all equipped with our collision prevention assist so
it can stop itself in traffic it's 25 miles an hour or slower and then the vehicle will stop
you have a camera here for that in addition to the sensors here in the bumper. So it's a very
safe car it's a great car to drive these cars all GLS's are airmatic suspensions so they ride
very smooth you can adjust the height the ride height of the vehicles when you're in them
but they it gives it a smoother more luxurious ride and I'll tell all my clients the GLS is the
S-Class equivalent SUV so this is what it's it goes along with our S-Class vehicle and
this is the SUV equivalent to the S-Class so it's very smooth very luxurious and very comfortable.
So we're at the back of the GLS 580s you can see here one thing i always point out with the GLS
580 as well as with the 450 they're all all-wheel drives that's what the 4MATIC stands for all-wheel
drive and that's the only way they come you can see here the beautiful LED lights here on the
back great visibility for other drivers seeing you when you're out on the road you can open
the hatch here there's a button here or you can have the easy access and kick it with your foot
so in the back here front license plate frame but let me move some of this stuff so you can see
there is a temporary spare under here in addition to the patented Mercedes-Benz first aid kit
and then
you have your three rows of seating and this is your privacy shade which is removable so there's
a button here on the right but set of buttons on the right and set on the left so the set on the
right is for the third row you simply just click the buttons and then the car will lower the seats,
I'm going to give you some space, now in addition to having you know a third row seat
you also have some of the features that you know for phone charging so there are a set of USB-C
ports on both sides of the seats for charging phones for people who are sitting in the third
row. One of the big options as well when we're talking about these vehicles is a five zone air.
So there's a four zone air and a five zone air and the difference simply is the five zone air
has vents in the third row the four zone air has vents back here but the controls for the four zone
is for the second row passengers. So if you want ventilation for your third row you want to order
the car with five zone air so that's what just something to note that applies to the 450 as well.
Let me show you how this comes out basically you just take this
slides out and you can see the interior space with many of my clients remove this
because they want that access to their their cargo space second row is here
voila, it's pretty good. One of the nice things as well you can lock all four doors by hitting
the button here on the on the lift gate or you just hit this and it'll close it and you
can height adjust this so you can pull it hit it and then it'll stop right there that's it.
Here we are inside the beautiful GLS 580 so the nice thing is I wanted to show you
about this car is as many of you know that our vehicles have the `MBTEX as well as the leather.
This car is equipped with the upgraded leather this is beautiful it's soft
it's perforated it has the heat and the ventilation controls here, so that's your heat,
there's your ventilation you can hear the air coming up and then this button controls their
passenger seat from here so that's what the r is that lets you know equipped with the Burmester
audio sound so it's great sound system it's clean it's beautiful this is the upgraded audio as well.
Ambient lighting, this is the one of the big things that everyone notices when they get inside
this vehicle is the ambient lighting so there's a couple of setups with the ambient lighting
now as you know this is the you know the dual 12.5 inch screens it's a 12.3 inch
screens it's beautiful it's it's easy to read it's digital it's touch. So one of the things
everyone talks about in this car is the ambient lighting so if you go to multi-color and these
little blue indicators let you know that that multicolor is active let's turn it off once you
turn off the multi-color then you have this color wheel with 64 colors so you can actually kind of
touch it and if you want it pink you can turn it and then you can set the color as you can see you
can turn it the color you wanted to there's an effect system with welcome so when you get into
the vehicle it'll turn the lights on to a certain color a welcome color and then there's multi-color
and then multi-color animation so what's nice about that is let's say we hit this red moon
as you're driving then the mood light changes you can see for example on the floor it's blue and on
the under the dash it's it's pink so it'll turn as you drive behind the screen it's a different color
it's a very nice feature it's even here on the side so the attention to detail that Mercedes-Benz
gave us with this vehicle is amazing. There's a lot to go on with the car so we actually have a
system when you come in and buy the vehicle we're gonna have a process we come out to your home and
they're gonna teach you how to use a lot of this stuff because there's a lot of things going on
with it everything here is climate controls so when you turn up the air conditioner or the heat
the actual the ambient lighting will turn to the designated color so if you go hot
it's going to turn red and if you go cool it's going to turn blue and then it'll go back to
the color that you have it set at. Inside of here is the wireless charger the smartphone
integration package now the nice thing about ours is that it you know recognizes the android and
the apple phone so you have both setups here and once you plug it in via a USB-C cord then it will
put your you know your Google Maps and things up here and you can do that control your navigation
from your telephone or obviously you could use it from the car here's your home button swipe
let me just go to navigation right here and then if you touch the little indicator that
can give you the 3D mapping or the 2D mapping or north up so however you prefer it. Two cup
holders now one of the things that always comes up when I'm showing these vehicles is there are
only two cup holders well there are cup holders in the door for larger cups or your Yeti's and
your Big Gulps and 32 ounce cups and 44 ounce cups can actually fit in the door and these are
certain you know tumblers can fit in here and what not in a water bottle so that's kind of cool.
You still get a 12 volt here and then there's an additional USB-C port here and then inside of here
there's an additional USB-C to see is port as well so you have plenty of places to charge your phone.
This is your wireless charging pad so you can take your phone and sit it here and it will charge your
phone I have a an iPhone and I have a case on it so i've done it and you sit it here and it
will actually just sit it up against there and the car will read it and it will charge it and it'll
do it even in my case I have the Apple see there it goes right there wireless charging started so
it does it even in my leather case of the Apple leather case but so it's very everything is pretty
nice. One of the other things that comes up is the ECO Start and Stop and that button is here
so you can't permanently disable it but you can hit the button and turn that off and it's here as
opposed to being here over the years and then the new Haptic Touchpad is amazing you hit the home
button and then you can swipe and it's responsive to your touch so it's a wonderful car. Come on
