Premium 4x4 Special: Behind the wheel of the Mercedes ML and the Land Rover Range Rover

By chance, we had two road tests almost back to back of two luxury 4x4s, two benchmarks that have been completely redesigned; the Range Rover was the last to reach the market.

The Mercedes is the ML 350 BluTec 4Matic, that is, with a six-cylinder diesel engine and 258 CV of power. Meanwhile, we tested the Range Rover with the 4.4 SDV8 engine producing 340 CV, also diesel but, this time, a powerful V8. Apart from the engines, they are direct rivals in everything else, and in addition to the traditional test we are going to put them to the test, face to face.

These two models are the latest additions to a segment where we have already tested models of the calibre of the Audi Q7 with the 4.2 V8 TDI engine producing 340 CV, or the BMW X5 xDrive40d with 306 CV that we tested a year ago. So during these two interesting tests, we will not forget these models, and at the end of it all we will tell you what stands out about each Premium 4×4 with a brief comparison of all those tested.

We hope you enjoy the upcoming tests, because in addition to the car, we have prepared a huge gallery so you don’t miss a single detail. In a few days we start with the Mercedes ML, and the next protagonist will be the new Range Rover, which has just landed on the market.
