Mercedes-Benz Vision GLK Freeside Study
Mercedes-Benz Vision GLK Freeside Study | a combination of letters that has specific connotations. The "G" alludes to the archetypal cross-country vehicle, the "L" intimates luxury and, as in other Mercedes model series, the "K" stands for compactness (German: Kompaktheit).

At first sight these three aspects may appear to be mutually incompatible. But on closer inspection they offer the perfect combination as Mercedes-Benz takes its SUV expertise and launches it in a whole new dimension – in the exciting Vision GLK FREESIDE. In January 2008 this compact character will be making its world debut at the Detroit Auto Show, providing a vision of the shape of SUVs to come.
