Boundlessly good: the GLK will get you to your destination on the road or far from it. Short front and rear overhangs, good ground clearance and the 4MATIC permanent all-wheel drive[1] mean this compact all-round talent will cut a good figure everywhere, and not just on gravel parking lots.

If you want, you can choose the optional off-road engineering package (only available for 4MATIC models) as well. This includes, among other things, a technical underguard. It helps reduce damage which can for example be caused by flying grains of sand or gravel. And the touch of a button makes targeted changes to the drive characteristics to further improve the vehicle’s off-road capability.
