Compact luxury with a squared-off stance

Drive a GLK-Class

The GLK-Class is the compact Mercedes-Benz SUV that never rounded off its edges. Its squared-off styling and German engineering give it a presence bigger than its footprint — and Mercedes-Benz assembled it in Germany. If you're browsing Mercedes-Benz rental options, a Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class SUV rental puts that character in your hands.

On Turo, you book your GLK-Class from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Mercedes-Benz sold the GLK-Class in the US through the 2015 model year. That makes every one a used-luxury find — the kind you won't see on a new-car lot.

Spirited V6 power with smooth seven-speed shifts

The 2015 GLK350 pairs a 3.5L V6 with a seven-speed automatic, so power arrives eagerly and shifts stay smooth. You get 302 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque — plenty for merging onto the freeway or passing on a two-lane highway. Mercedes-Benz claims a 0–60 mph time of 6.5 seconds, which is quick for a five-seat luxury SUV.

Composed handling made for city streets

The GLK-Class drives smaller than it looks. Reviewers praise its composed handling and responsive steering, so it feels planted through curves and quick to react in traffic.

At 178.3 inches long, it's compact enough to slip into tight parallel spots and crowded parking garages without a three-point-turn workout. That makes it a smart pick for city trips with lots of stops — dinner downtown, a museum afternoon, or a hop between neighborhoods. You get Mercedes-Benz polish in a size that fits the way you move through a city.

Rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC all-wheel drive

GLK-Class listings on Turo come with one of two drive setups: rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC all-wheel drive. Check the listing to see which one you're booking.

4MATIC sends power to all four wheels, which adds confidence on rain-slicked highways and in fast-changing weather. Look for it when forecasts turn unpredictable — think fall in the Northeast or spring storms in the Midwest. The 4MATIC version weighs 4,123 lbs versus 4,068 lbs for rear-wheel drive (a small trade for extra grip). Rear-wheel drive suits sunny-climate trips and everyday city driving. Either way, the GLK-Class shines on paved roads, whether you're headed to the ski lodge, the lake house, or a family visit across the state.

Stand out with a GLK-Class

The GLK-Class fits trips where you want luxury without bulk. Take it on a weekend getaway, run city errands in a five-seat SUV that parks with ease, or test one before you buy a used GLK. You'll test the ride, cargo space, and fuel costs on your own routes — research no dealership lap can match. For more options in this class, browse compact luxury SUV rentals on Turo.

Top GLK-Class features

Distinctive upright design

The GLK-Class wears a boxy, squared-off silhouette that stands apart from the swoopy shapes common among compact SUVs. At 66.9 inches tall, it holds an upright, confident stance that reads as classic Mercedes-Benz from any angle.

That shape pays off behind the wheel, too. Squared-off corners make it easier to judge the edges of the vehicle when you're easing into a tight spot. And when you walk out of a crowded parking garage at the end of a long day, you'll spot your GLK-Class fast. Few compact SUVs look quite like it, which makes it a fun pick when you want your ride to carry some personality.

Practical cargo space

The GLK-Class gives you 16.5 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats — room for weekend bags and a few extras. Pair that with seating for five, and you've got a compact SUV that carries a small group and their luggage.

It's a practical fit for airport runs, a long weekend with friends, or a family visit with gifts in tow. Pack soft-sided bags to make the most of the space, and load heavier items first so they sit low and stay put. Traveling with bulkier gear, like golf clubs or a stroller? Check the listing photos to size up the cargo area before you book.

Efficient diesel option

Some GLK-Class listings on Turo include the GLK250 BlueTEC, a diesel version built for fewer fuel stops. Its 2.1L twin-turbo four-cylinder makes 200 hp and earns an EPA-estimated 24 city/33 hwy mpg.

That efficiency makes the diesel a strong pick for long road trips, where every mile between stops counts. You'll trade some of the V6's punch for range — a fair swap on a cross-state drive. Availability depends on the listing, so check the engine details before you book. When it's time to refuel, fill up with diesel, not gasoline.

Top tips and things to know before renting a GLK-Class

Get to know your GLK-Class

Mercedes-Benz sold the GLK-Class in the US through the 2015 model year, so every listing on Turo is a used model. Check each listing for the engine — the V6 GLK350 or the diesel GLK250 BlueTEC — and the drive type, rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC. Want a different flavor of Mercedes-Benz? Compare a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon rental for bold, boxy luxury or a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental when you need room for a bigger group.

GLK-Class driving tips

The GLK350's V6 calls for premium unleaded, so plan for it when you refuel. The seven-speed automatic shifts smoothly in stop-and-go city traffic, which keeps short hops relaxed. Its compact size makes parking easy. Still, walk a quick lap around it before your first tight spot to learn those squared-off corners.

How much does it cost to rent a GLK-Class?

GLK-Class rental prices on Turo vary by location, trip dates, and listing. Compare a few listings near your destination to find the right fit for your budget. Book a longer trip and you may unlock weekly or monthly discounts — explore long-term car rental on Turo to stretch your plans further.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
