If you need to tow 7,500 pounds and want 7-passenger capacity in a luxury SUV that doesn’t share its underpinnings with a lower-end brand model — looking at you, Cadillac Escalade and Lexus LX — then the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is a compelling choice.
The GLS is very accommodating, but competitors offer more towing capability — like the Escalade, Lincoln Navigator and Infiniti QX80 — and others offer many of the GLS’s features for less money, like the GMC Acadia and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
