Handling
With their comparable turning radii, the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class and the average SUV quite certainly handle about the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class and the typical SUV have similar-sized engines, with a slight advantage to the typical SUV. Torque is the force that lets you accelerate quickly, and in this respect, the average SUV isn't much more powerful than the GLK-Class.

Utility
The average SUV will quite certainly prove more convenient than the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class for those of you with frequent child-cargo. The average SUV outpulls the GLK-Class by a big margin.

Convenience
You will most certainly have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class than with the average SUV.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the typical SUV offers a bit more head room than the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class, there frankly isn't much of a difference. The typical SUV is not particularly more spacious for your passengers than the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the typical SUV than the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class because of its larger tank. The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class and the average SUV compete for the same parking spaces.

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 average SUV to the dealership as the GLK-Class. The GLK-Class doesn't pale in comparison to the typical SUV with respect to fuel economy. When it comes to fuel economy, the typical SUV and the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class don't differ much. The typical SUV isn't much more expensive than the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class when it comes to MSRP.

Warranty
The basic warranty that comes with the typical SUV isn't quite as generous as the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class's.
