Conclusiones
La Mercedes-Benz Clase M ofrece un buen equilibrio. No es tan rígida y poco indulgente como algunas SUV, ni tan blanda dentro o fuera del pavimento como otras. Cuenta con una razonable capacidad todoterreno y buena capacidad de arrastre, pero nunca es un problema al manejarla durante las tareas más convencionales del día a día que la mayoría de conductores afrontarán. La opción de cuatro motores es un plus, permitiendo a los propietarios adaptarlas a sus prioridades de alto millaje de combustible o alto desempeño.
