Interior wise they feel a lot cheaper due to more plastic materials/lower grade leathers and weirdly the seat is angled towards the center console and is very obvious. The GLS is likely to have a bigger third row and cargo hold, but it can't really hold a candle to the X5 and 7's interior especially when it comes to materials and quality.
Agree.

Was in an S class today and loved it, GLS just seemed like a van.
