GLS550 HUD Option?

Does the GLS have a Heads Up Display option in the USA? In reviewing the Speed Limit Assist option on MBUSA site it states ..."Speed Limit Assist can display the published speed limit in the instrument cluster display or in the available Head-Up Display." After reviewing MBUSA and the brochure I see no mention of HUD. Does GLS have a HUD option or not? Thanks All.

What changes in 2019 and what source is confirming this? $100K and False Advertising..WTF? Disappointing since many of my vehicles (except trucks) have had it dating back a decade. Not a deal breaker but seems odd it is not on a technologically advanced MB.

I talked to my dealer about it, basically the current models are still the dumb models that don't support the new tech. When models switch to the new chassis that's when you'll see the integration of HUD, new updated auto cruise control (like in the new E class), etc. Unfortunately for the GLS this will not be happening until 2019 model (which should arrive sometime in 2018). The 2018 S class update *should* also have everything (that's what they're expecting but not fully sure), as should the 2018 G class. And of course the current 2017 e class has everything already (well... aside from comfort and style).
