The GL is equipped as standard with new seats in a fluting design and features an extremely comfortable second seat row. An electrically folding third seat row, which converts the GL into a comfortable 7-seater, is available as an option.

All seats are upholstered in elegant ARTICO man-made leather and are also optionally available in leather or nappa leather (GL 500 has nappa leather as standard). Driver and front-passenger sides feature fully power-adjustable seats. And using the optional memory package (standard in V8 models), the driver's seat (and front passenger's seat) moves automatically into a position you have stored.

The settings for the exterior mirrors and steering column can also be stored. And relaxed driving is guaranteed thanks to the electrically adjustable 4-way lumbar support integrated in the driver’s seat. The V8 models are equipped as standard with multicontour seats. Front climatised seats (heating with ventilation) are also available as an optional extra.
