2008–2016 Mercedes-Benz GL Electric Running Boards (GL350 / GL450 / GL550 / GL63 AMG)

Mercedes-Benz GL Electric Running Boards

MAX Mercedes-Benz GL electric running boards provide convenient cabin access for compatible GL-Class models. Designed for this full-size luxury SUV, the retractable step system offers a practical stepping surface for passengers and folds beneath the vehicle when not in use, helping preserve the original side profile.

Vehicle-Specific Design

Mercedes-Benz GL power running boards are developed for compatible vehicle configurations, with mounting brackets designed around the relevant installation points. This vehicle-specific approach helps integrate the steps with the GL-Class body and provides a functional upgrade for everyday driving.

Easier Entry and Exit

Mercedes-Benz GL running boards help passengers get in and out of the cabin more comfortably. The powered system extends when the doors open and retracts after the doors close, making access more convenient for families and passengers while keeping the steps concealed when they are not needed.

Durable Construction

MAX electric side steps feature aluminum alloy platforms and components designed for repeated daily operation. CNC machining, robotic welding, and in-house electrostatic powder coating support consistent manufacturing quality and a durable surface finish.

Automatic Operation and Installation

Mercedes-Benz GL retractable running boards use a door-sensing system to control automatic extension and retraction. Vehicle-specific mounting brackets support installation, with the system designed to minimize unnecessary vehicle modifications. Fitment should be confirmed according to the model year, chassis version, trim, and existing side skirt configuration.

OEM and Private Label Support

MAX Running Boards supports OEM customization and private-label projects for automotive accessory distributors, importers, and installers. Custom branding and logo options can be discussed according to the vehicle application, product specifications, and order quantity.
