In 1999, development on a successor to the W163 began under the codename "W164" and spanned a period of 6 years.

Prototype testing was conducted throughout 2003 and 2004, concluding in early 2005. The redesigned M-class (chassis name ''W164'') was introduced in April 2005 as a 2006 model after a showing at the [[North American International Auto Show#2005|North American International Auto Show]] in January. It was almost entirely new, with a more sporting, aerodynamic look—the [[coefficient of drag]] went down to 0.34 compared with the previous generation. Mercedes-Benz made the new M-Class 71&nbsp;mm larger, 150&nbsp;mm longer and 5&nbsp;mm lower than the first model. The M-Class was named "Best New Sport Utility Vehicle" in the 2006 [[Canadian Car of the Year]] awards.▼
