The AMG versions, too, are available as fastback “coupe crossovers” in the mold of BMW’s X6. Buyers who want it all have the GLE 63 S 4Matic+ ($116,850), which wrings an additional 120 horsepower out of those four liters and eight cylinders, and ladles on every performance bit in the AMG catalog as well as bumping some Mercedes options up to standard equipment. The GLE 580 4Matic ($80,900) is the second-most powerful GLE, with 54 horsepower more than the GLE 53, but it is a luxury-focused machine, more about smooth and quiet power than the athleticism found in the AMG products. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE is handsome in any guise and distinctively a Mercedes, but gets more athletic looks in AMG GLE 53 and GLE 63 S forms. It lays on an additional 67 horsepower as well as a dedicated AMG suspension and a Nappa leather dashboard. The GLE 53 4Matic+ ($74,150) is from Mercedes’ in-house tuner, AMG. Moving up to the GLE 450 4Matic ($63,950) trades the four-cylinder for the six, adds 107 horsepower and AIRMATIC gas-pressurized shock absorbers. The GLE 350 4Matic ($59,700) adds all-wheel drive. And there are two V8s, the GLE 580 4Matic, with a mild hybrid 4.0-liter with 483 horsepower, and the GLE 63 S 4Matic+, a monster 603-hp twin-turbo version.īase price for the GLE 350 is $57,200 (including destination). A hotter version of that powerplant, making 429 horsepower, is found in the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 4Matic+. The GLE 450 4Matic gets a mild hybrid 3.0-liter inline six making 362 horsepower.
The GLE 350 and GLE 350 4Matic all-wheel-drive are powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 255 horsepower. Six trim levels are available, with five distinct engines and two body styles. Like some of its competitors, the GLE offers an optional third row of seats, boosting capacity to seven, but it eats into what is otherwise, by a wide margin, best-in-class legroom for second-row passengers. Its styling is evolutionary-there’s still a hint of the old ML outside, and the cabin feels like old-school luxury. The German automaker’s best-selling SUV since 1997, the current model was new in 2019. Although the GLE name dates to only 2015, this midsize machine is descended from the old ML-class. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE is a five-seat luxury SUV that rides on a 117.9-inch wheelbase.
