This Year's Model Updates:

The 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class receives a new hybrid-powered variant, the ML450 Hybrid. The rest of the lineup stays the same, though the ML320 Bluetec gets a mild increase of torque and a new name: ML350 Bluetec.

Pros:
  • Wide range of engines including diesel and hybrid, comfortable for five, high-quality interior materials and construction.
Cons:
  • Fussy electronics controls, non-V8 models are rather pokey, expensive for the segment, hybrid not that fuel efficient.

  • My Birthday Gift - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    We have been in the Benz family since 2001. This is our second ML. We owned the 2002, and traded it in 2008 for C300 "a red hot mama"! We did not know how much we missed the ML until a Chicago winter!!! We traded that "red hot mama" in 2014 for a 2010 certified ML350 with all the bells and whistles. We love everything inside, and out. Another Chicago snow hit, and we didnt miss going anywhere. As a former owner of 3 Volvos, I can feel the safety in the ML350 as I did in those Volvos.

  • Great SUV for small family - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    Turned in 2 months early my leased 07 ML350 and bought a 2010 ML350. It rides better probably because of the wider/larger 20" wheels. Though its not a race car it has plenty of power and the 6 speed transmission is very smooth. If you dont have the need for a third row set and want top quality that will last this is the SUV. Im self employed and it qualified for the 3 year accelerated depreciation schedule. (25K this year)! Will be keeping this one for a long time (10 Years?)

  • First ML - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I purchased this vehicle on Sept.4th 2009. I will admit that I did an extensive study on this vehicle including test driving an 08 and three 06s of this same model and make. I also test drove eight other comparable SUVs of the same size. However, I always went back to the ML because it was just a cut above. The older MLs that I test drove had held up quite well telling me that a new one should be just fine.(including the improvements).

  • Very happy with BlueTec - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I looked at all the diesel SUVs available on the market and this is by far the best in my opinion. Its pricey but very well done in all respects. I love the BlueTec diesel engine. On a recent road trip I got 30 mpg and here in town I get 20 mpg. Thats much better than the Lexus RX330 I traded. Very luxurious and comfortable interior with great seats. The Luxury 2 package has many features my wife and I love. I only have 4000 miles on it so cant speak to reliability; however so far I havent found one thing wrong.

  • Glad We Moved Up!! - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    We replaced a 2007 Honda Pilot whos lease was maturing. Couldnt pass up the deal. Lower payment than a new Pilot or Pathfinder do to MBs year end event and a much higher residual. Couldnt be happier so far. True German engineering and craftsmanship. Plenty of power and room for a family of four. Looks great in Capri Blue with a tan interior. It has the P1 package which includes NAV, power liftgate, etc, heated seats, running boards and the dual dvds for the kids. Perfect fit and finish with high end materials. NAV, bluetooth, etc. arent as intuitive as my Infinity but got used to it. This truck is a tank in the snow...handles much better than the Pilot did!

  • Best Yet - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    Bought this for my wife who spends her weeks between NY, Philadelphia and Washington D.C. It feels so solid and safe. Love taking long drives, looking forward to New England this summer.

  • BEST SUV in its class. Just FANTASTIC!! - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    1st MB. Upgraded from Toy RAV4. Wanted Lexus RX350. Tried and liked MB GLK but couldnt resist the roominess, smoothness and overall feel of the ML. It is a pleasure to ride. Suits my style of relaxed driving. With Costco program got $1500 below invoice with P1 package and few add-on options like heated rear seats. Get about 18-19 miles/gallon on Highway. Have about 4500 miles in 3 months. This is a keeper for 10+ years. Hope MB has ironed out most of the past issues. Cabin is simple but elegant. All controls are well placed. Clean lines. Prefer the route info in the odometer area instead of the heads up display in Lexus & BMW.

  • Not exactly thrilled - 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    The drivers seat is not ergonomically proportionate. The sides of the seat protrude out creating an unnatural position for your arm. The remote needs to be accented with white so you can see the buttons easier. Running boards get extremely slippery when frost on car and pre-heating car doesnt help. Could do without the light vents in the sunroof. Burns as much gas as Chevy Suburban but not as versatile. Tire pressure lights always on even after service. Sound system has much to be desired.
