Stage 1 Eco remap figures
Stage 1 Eco is performance with economy in mind. It keeps most of the Stage 1 gain, so the car still pulls well, but the map is shaped for efficient, relaxed driving rather than flat-out output. It is above the standard figures. We don't quote mpg, because economy depends on the car and how it is driven.

How Stage 1 Eco compares with Stage 1
Full Stage 1 on this Mercedes-Benz GLS is expected to give 705bhp and 1056Nm (+129bhp, +295Nm). The Stage 1 Eco keeps about 75% of that power gain and 92% of the torque gain, so you get 673bhp and 1032Nm: 32bhp less and 24Nm less than Stage 1, with the map shaped for efficient, relaxed driving, so it suits you if you want the pull and care about running costs. Both sit above the standard 576bhp and 761Nm.
What this means for your GLS
Naturally aspirated petrol engines have no boost to raise, so gains from software alone are more modest than on a turbocharged car and come from fuelling, ignition and throttle response.
This car is listed with a Bosch MED17.7 engine control unit. Newer ECUs often protect their software, so we read the exact unit and version on the car before confirming the figures on this page.
We remap at our Belgrave Gate workshop in Leicester, or at your home or work within 30 miles, and every job starts with a diagnostic check.
Please note: these are expected figures, not guarantees. Real results vary with the condition of the vehicle, the ECU software version, fuel quality and the hardware fitted. Some options - including Stage 2 and anything that needs extra hardware - are for off-road or competition use only. We check every vehicle first and confirm what is achievable before any work starts.
