I'm in a 2010 C300 and going to move to a 2012 GLK. Have you guys seen any released pictures? I know the 2010 C300 pictures have been published... specs and prices also appreciated if you have a source...

I found this one... but not much more...

Don't think the glk is getting any major changes for atleast another 2 years so prob 2012 will be the same as 2011 as I think most updates were already applied to the 2011s and mainly it was the LEDs

Your picture shows the 2008 Mercedes-Benz Vision GLK Freeside.

According to a German car magazine, the end of 2012 brings a face lift for the GLK and a successor will roll out in 2016.

Isn't the pic shown in the original post from one of the GLK concept/prototype cars? Don't think it is a new pic of the 2012.

""...just came across this article in a German car magazine with a picture (!) / rendering of the next GLK. Enjoy.

So this is the translation of the header above the the picture. Is it the next GLK or is it a BLK.

Mercedes renewed and expanded its SUV range. With the BLK to mobilize against the Swabians Q3 and X1, the next GLK receives a more binding design, and the G-model lives on.



The stylistic parallels between the G-model and the GLK is not at all interested parties equally well received. Why do the designers of the next generation GLK create something more binding. Our design shows a striking, streamlined and much more spacious proposal probably better acceptance.

Although the translation is not 100% its pretty close so are they talking about an new BKL???

Sorry, I can't see the picture just the place holder can you see the pix?

allanX204

Picture 1 shows the "new" GLK and picture 5 is talking about a new "BLK"

What picture can't you see ? The one in the link or the first of this posting ?

NYCGLK

Don't think there will be any changes to 2012 model.

Maybe minor facelift in 2013-2014. MB keeps their models for quite some time, and facelifts are not that dramatic.

MKenM

The one that I posted from your link

allanX204

Here are 2 pictures from the side. One is the GLK and one the BLK.
I hope you can see them.

Are you using any "adblocker", "spamblocker", etc. ? Can you try to open the site with a different browser ?

Any experts here who can help.

Can you try the direct link below ? (do you see a link ?)

saw the first link when this was posed

now none of the links work

MKenM

Neither of the links above work. I can see Amaxm's picture but no others. I've always used Google Chrome with no problems.

allanX204

Sorry, can't help

...just noticed that both of you - MkenM and NYCGLK - are from NJ.
Seems like NJ doesn't want you to see the world as it is

Do you still see my picture in the following post?

@ MkenM: You (and some others) already had trouble seeing my posted pictures/link.
(i.e. https://mbworld.org/forums/glk-class...tment-glk.html)
I have no idea why. I followed all the advice I got and I don't understand why some people can see it and some can't. Sorry for that.

NYCGLK

I've seen all your pics before in those threads, but now they all are gone.

MBWorld is weird sometimes esp. depending on what what browser you are using for the posts.

No problems seeing them here in GA. I was to access the German link for future build MB's and the two MB pix of the 2012 GLK & 201? BLK). Is the BLK for Canada only or will it make to the US? My German is a little rusty.

rmfnla

I see them.

So the BLK is a crossover vehicle? Clever move for MB since the BMW and Infiniti offerings have been so successful... NOT!

I found this on the 2012 diesel GLK!

Although it seemed like all the news this week surrounded hybrids and electric vehicles, some automakers are still committed to producing diesel powered models.Mercedes-Benz wants to increase the number of diesel models it offers so its smaller models will soon be offered in diesel versions. Mercedes-Benz USA President Ernst Lieb recently told Ward's Auto that a diesel version of the GLK crossover will be offered in the US in 2012. Additionally the next C-Class will be offered with a diesel when it arrives in 2013.
Both models will be powered by a 2.2L four-cylinder diesel engine that uses Mercedes Bluetec trademark.Currently Mercedes-Benz offers Bluetec diesel engines in the ML and GL-Class SUVs, R-Class crossover and the 2011 E-Class.
2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK Specification


2012 Mercedes GLK Diesel specification release in US, these detail specification of Mercedes GLK Diesel supported with Diesel 2.2-liter four-cylinder, 170 hp (125 kW) and 3.0-liter V6, 228 hp (171 kW) and 3.5-liter V6, 268 hp (201 kW). We can find Diesel 3.0-liter V6, 224 hp over (165 kW) interferons week-end in this car. This is sufficient for a maximum speed of 205 kmh (127 mph) and a 0 to 100 km / h sprint (0-62 mph) in 8.8 seconds. GLK is a compact luxury crossover, which was published as a 2009 model in Europe and North America as a model in 2010, after his first public appearance at the Beijing Auto Show 2008 next to its rival, the Q5. The model is built in Bremen, Germany, and is the first Mercedes SUV to be built. Mercedes is the first to admit the new GLK crossover SUV is a city that is unlikely to spend much time off the road. By neighborhood, Lieb Bluetec hopes the range will be "somewhere in the order of 15% to 20%" of total sales. GLK 220 CDI Blue Efficiency is currently available in Europe that develops hp at 3,200 rpm and 400 Nm of torque at 1400 rpm 170.

GLKKa2H

I think the "spec" given really is for the GL 350 CDI, and not valid for the 350 CDI GLK.

Performance (0-100) km/h for the GLK (not BlueTEC) is 7,3 s, max Torque 540Nm/1.600–2.400rpm and compression ratio 15,5 : 1.

2012 GLK is almost unchanged, but there are some minor changes. You can see the complete specs with packages and color chips here: 2012 GLK. I wonder how Sapphire Grey looks in reality...

O. m. g. that black ash wood for the interior is HOT !!! I can't wait to see what it would cost to do a DIY retrofit - thanks for the info!

btw - I went ahead and bought a 2011
