GLK-Class Off-Roader: the environment

Environmentally compatible concepts

BlueEFFICIENCY from Mercedes-Benz stands for pioneering efficiency technologies as well as innovative packages of measures based on optimising fuel consumption and emission levels.

BlueEFFICIENCY measures

The GLK is equipped with a wealth of diverse BlueEFFICIENCY features and environment-friendly technologies, depending on the engine.

Intelligent energy management

Significant savings can also come from a series of small contributions. With the aim of making the GLK more fuel efficient, the Mercedes-Benz engineers examined all the main components with regard to their energy usage and found ways of getting them to work more economically.

Overview of efficient energy management measures:

  • Efficient alternator management: the kinetic energy from braking and coasting is used to charge the battery.
  • More efficient fuel management: the pumping pressure of the fuel pump is based on the precise amount of fuel needed at the time
  • Air conditioning only as required: if not required, the compressor is automatically decoupled from the engine’s belt drive.

Efficiency technologies in the GLK

The latest-generation CDI diesel engines will not fail to impress thanks to outstanding performance characteristics and low consumption. Injection pressure has been increased, operation smoothness enhanced and noise levels optimised, while reduced compression makes for lower emissions.

All the diesel models (with the exception of the GLK 350 CDI 4MATIC) as well as the GLK 350 4MATIC BlueEFFICIENCY now have the ECO start/stop function fitted as standard.

Environmental certificate

Mercedes-Benz is the only automotive brand in the world to have received an ISO-standard Environmental Certificate. For this certification, the vehicle models have to meet strict requirements and undergo stringent controls in their development, production and recycling. Our goal is to make environmental protection objectively measurable and to make it possible for you as the driver to experience it concretely.
