2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK Facelift gets Freshened up Looks, Diesel Version Added to U.S. Lineup


This is the facelifted Mercedes-Benz GLK that will be sold as a 2013 model in the States and as a 2012 model in the rest of the world. The public will have the chance to see the updated GLK for the first time at next month's New York International Auto Show.
