Although you can't configure it depend ending on your country, it's still there.

As I have said in past posts..... the R Class is still being built in the US.

Production tooling is moving however.... to AM General in Indiana under a contract manufacturing deal.... Why??? For export to China... LOL
BTW... You are on the main global site. There you will see all cars they produce that may or may not be available in your market.

Here is the Chinese site, where you can look at the brochure and such...

Now the gas V6 is called the R400... Ha Ha...

I jumped from the global site to many other major markets... and Yup China is the only place I find the R for sale.
