Buying a Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class New vs Used

If you purchase a used Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class that is 2 years old, then you could save $40,689 compared to buying new, and still have a relatively new model with plenty of useful life remaining. If you plan to keep this vehicle for 3 years then your total cost of depreciation would be $16,419. Try other age and ownership length combinations, or different vehicles to see if you can find depreciation sweetspots where this cost is the lowest. Hint: Try vehicles between 2 and 4 years old, as brand new vehicles depreciate quickly. Also, if this is a recently released model and buying a few years old isn't possible, consider another vehicle, or perhaps wait until more used GLS-Class models become available.

What About Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class Insurance Costs?

The average cost to insure a Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is about $3,100 per year. This adds up to around $15,500 after 5 years of vehicle ownership. Unlike depreciation, this expense can often be lowered by shopping around for lower insurance premiums. Comparing quotes will ensure that you are not overpaying if you already own a Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. Or, if you are just researching, then it would be money-wise to know this cost before buying.
