In May 2012, the company rolled out M-class 350CDI SUV, which was powered by a massive 3.0 litre of V6 engine and was attached with a hefty price tag of Rs. 56.9 lakh. But the smaller 2.2 litre of diesel engine fitted in the new Mercedes Benz ML-250 would be fuel efficient and will churn out maximum 204BHP of power output accompanied by 500NM of torque. The seven speed automatic transmission will power all 4 wheels via 4matic all wheel drive system.
