Mercedes to Drop R-Class from its U.S. Lineup, Officially Confirms New GL SUV for NY Show

Mercedes-Benz USA spokesperson Chrisitan Bokich confirmed the news to Carscoop and added that company's three other SUV/crossover models including the GLK, M-Class and the larger GL, cover the market's needs.
