The popular GLK-Class compact SUV is freshened for 2013. The 3.5 litre V6 of the GLK350 4Matic now features direct injection, increasing horsepower to 302. The big news item though is the arrival during the model year of the GLK250 BlueTEC, equipped with a new twinturbo, 2.1 litre diesel four-cylinder that makes 190 hp and 369 lbs-ft of torque. All GLKs feature a 7-speed automatic transmission and the 4Matic all-wheel-drive hardware.
