What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on a large luxury SUV with lots of standard and optional equipment. Focus on overall condition, signs of suspension wear, and whether the cabin electronics and driver aids work as expected. If you’re comparing listings, pay close attention to how well the vehicle has been maintained and whether it shows signs of heavy use.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: In base GLS 450 form, the SUV has a more subtle, less flashy look, and the test car had a fairly basic interior by GLS standards. It still felt luxurious, but it did not have reclining seats.
• Powertrain: The GLS 450 uses a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine with a nine-speed automatic transmission and EQ Boost mild-hybrid assistance. The engine makes 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, with an electric motor that can add 21 hp and 184 lb-ft in short bursts.
• Safety package: Standard safety features include forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, a driver-attention monitor, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, a surround-view camera system, Crosswind Assist, parking assist, and Pre Safe. Adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, second-row side airbags, and more advanced driver-assistance features cost extra.
• Infotainment: The standard MBUX system includes a 12.3-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio, and natural-language voice recognition.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA fuel-economy ratings for the GLS 450 4Matic are 20 mpg combined, 18 mpg city, and 24 mpg highway.

Which 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS trim should I buy?

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS is offered in 1 trim level: GLS 450 4Matic.

Here's the short version:

The GLS 450 4Matic is the one to buy because it is the only standard gas-model trim in this model year, and it already gives you the core GLS experience: a smooth inline-six powertrain, standard AWD, air suspension, and a roomy three-row layout. It suits you best if you want the flagship-size Mercedes SUV without waiting for higher-output versions to return.

Mercedes leaves some key safety features off the standard equipment list, so you should budget for the driver-assistance options if they matter to you.

What is the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS's resale value?

The current average of $46,133 sits slightly below last year's $54,631.

That price drop suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point. For a future seller, it also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment. Well-kept examples with clean history and desirable options should be easier to move than neglected ones.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 39.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 15.55% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 stands out for its simplified lineup, with only the base six-cylinder GLS 450 4Matic available.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $46,614, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $46,133 average.
• It offers multiple powertrain options and impressive technology.

The bottom line: The 2022 is the better primary pick if you want the current-year GLS at a lower average price and with a simpler buying decision. If you’re price-sensitive and find a well-kept 2021 with the right equipment, that year can still make sense, but you’ll want to compare condition and features carefully before paying more.
