Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class is a compact luxury SUV whose sharp, G-Wagen-inspired styling made it a distinct, boxy alternative to its curvier rivals. Based on the C-Class, it's known for its V6 and later torquey BlueTEC diesel engines.
Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class sold for a median of $11,050 over the last 12 months, based on 51 auction sales; the middle 50% sold between $7,775 and $14,750. 1,565 currently for sale.
The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class (X204) was a compact luxury SUV sold from 2009 to 2015. Built on the W204 C-Class platform, its sharp, boxy styling was a direct nod to the iconic G-Wagen and set it apart from curvier rivals. In the US, the primary model was the GLK 350 with a V6 and optional 4MATIC all-wheel drive. A mid-cycle refresh for 2013 introduced updated styling, a revised interior, and the torquey GLK 250 BlueTEC diesel model.
While not yet a classic, the GLK's distinct design has found a following among enthusiasts who appreciate its unique aesthetic in a sea of homogenous crossovers. It represents a specific era of Mercedes design that has aged gracefully. The post-facelift (2013-2015) models, especially the efficient diesel and V6s with the AMG Sport Package, are the most sought-after for their blend of modern features and throwback looks.
The GLK market is firmly in the affordable used-car category, with an average price around $12,204. Its wide price spread reflects the vast differences in condition, mileage, and specification across the 59 sales tracked. It's a practical and stylish entry point for modern Mercedes ownership, offering durability and a unique presence that later models lack.
Buying Tips
Check pre-2012 GLK 350s for records of balance shaft or timing chain service, a known issue with the M272 V6 engine.
On 4MATIC models, listen for whining or grinding noises from the transfer case, as failures are common and expensive to repair.
The GLK 250 BlueTEC diesel is strong, but its emissions systems (AdBlue, DPF, NOx sensors) can be a source of costly and complex faults.
Inspect the interior for wear on the driver's seat bolster and test all functions of the COMAND infotainment system, which can be slow on pre-facelift models.
Prices range from $1,500 for project cars to $38,000 for low-mileage, top-spec examples.
