The Mercedes-Benz R-Class has been a curiosity since its 2006 introduction. To many, it was clearly a station wagon. To others, it was a minivan variant. At its introduction, Mercedes-Benz sternly referred to its product as a segment-creating Sport Tourer SUV. The reasoning was that back then, the 2008 Mercedes-Benz R-Class, as it still does today, shared many components with the M-Class SUV. The 2008 R-Class is also manufactured at the same facility as the M- and GL-Class SUVs.
