HUMMER H2 SUV vs. Mercedes-Benz M-Class Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the Mercedes-Benz M-Class to the dealership as the HUMMER H2 SUV. In terms of MSRP, the M-Class costs significantly less than the HUMMER H2 SUV.

Utility
The HUMMER H2 SUV will definitely prove more convenient than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class for those of you with frequent kid-cargo. The H2 SUV is a better choice than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class in terms of transporting cargo, especially if you often need to carry a lot of loot or massive dogs. The HUMMER H2 SUV outpulls the Mercedes-Benz M-Class by a big margin.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the HUMMER H2 SUV offers a bit more head room than the M-Class, there really isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the M-Class provides a bit more head- and leg-room than the HUMMER H2 SUV, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Dimensions
The HUMMER H2 SUV is tremendously more bulky than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the H2 SUV than the M-Class because of its larger tank. The Mercedes-Benz M-Class and the HUMMER H2 SUV compete for the same parking spaces. The Mercedes-Benz's shorter wheelbase may produce a less-settled highway ride but a more maneuverable feel in daily traffic than the HUMMER H2 SUV.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, the H2 SUV packs quite a wallop and will knock the Mercedes-Benz down a few rungs. On the other hand, note that high horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums. With that kind of horsepower, the HUMMER is a true speedster.

Handling
With its tighter turning radius, the Mercedes-Benz M-Class is most certainly nimbler than the H2 SUV, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; however, remember that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The Mercedes-Benz M-Class's engine is tremendously smaller than the HUMMER H2 SUV's. Bear in mind that smaller engines can be stressed more; on the other hand, smaller engines typically get better gas mileage. The Mercedes-Benz M-Class could learn a lesson or two from the H2 SUV regarding torque. Torque is roughly equivalent to acceleration, and in this respect, the HUMMER H2 SUV is tremendously more powerful than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class.

Warranty
The Mercedes-Benz M-Class and the HUMMER H2 SUV have the same basic after-sale protection.
