GL Ride Height Question

I noticed in some of the MB sales pictures and TV commercials the GL is shown with a much taller ride height. I think it looks much more aggressive with this stance. Is that the off road package that is coming later that was described in some of the magazine articles or can you adjust the current air shocks via a switch in the vehicle ? Did the premiere edition have this package ?

There is a button where you can raise the vehicle on all models. But after you start moving and pass 40 - 50 mph the car will lower automatically and stay lowered till you push the button again.

If you want to roll around high without the off road package, stay slow.

Actually

The way it works on other MBs with Airmatic is that when raised it will lower to standard height after you reach speeds of around 40mph and lower further at 65/75mph but when you slow down again it will raise again to the highest setting.
