Lexus RS400h vs Mercedes ML320 CDI (Mercedes Enthusiast)

This was from long ago when the ML320 CDI was compared to the Hybrid Lexus. Here's the Mercedes Enthusiast version. Obviously a little pro-Mercedes but still entertaining to read.

Nice article!

Can't wait till MB brings in the V8 diesel for the North American market.

Anytime.

Are there rumors of the ML420 CDI coming over to the US?

I think they'll see how the GL420 Bluetec sells first, just my theory.

Or perhaps MB wants to show how smooth and frugal a diesel engine can be when compared to the hybrid technology. A V8 diesel may defeat that image...

Bighead, I recently drove the 420 and 320 CDI and honestly before you consider the extra $'s on the V8 CDI engine do try the 320 CDI I found it equally amazing.

I can't imagine spending the xtra dough on a 420. The 320 is soooo nice. 390 pound feet.

The ML420 CDI IMO is complete overkill. Useless, essentially. Unless you want to show off...
