The 3rd Generation GLE SUV (2016-19)

Third-generation design of the trend-setting luxury SUV that debuted as the M-Class in 1998. The Mercedes-Benz GLE, though a new name in the company’s SUV family, is a thoroughly revised version of a renowned model. The GLE replaces the famous ML-Class, as all Mercedes SUV’s aligned their simplified nomenclature to begin with a “G.” A new plug-in hybrid model–the GLE 550e 4MATIC®—debuts in states with the Zero Emission vehicle (ZEV) requirement.

The shape may be familiar, but the GLE sports a new look with redesigned headlights, front fenders, front and rear bumpers, full LED taillights, as well as a redesigned cabin. The refreshed design is accentuated by new wheel designs in 18- to 21-inch sizes and new interior color and trim options. Increased standard equipment bolsters the luxury, while new safety systems reflect the brand’s leadership in occupant protection and accident-avoidance technologies.

For 2016, the Mercedes GLE line offers the GLE 300d 4MATIC® (diesel with 201 horsepower, 369 lb.-ft. of torque); the GLE 350 with its V6 gasoline engine (302 hp, 273 lb.-ft.) and rear-wheel drive or the GLE 350 4MATIC®; the biturbo V6-powered GLE 400 (329 hp, 354 lb.-ft.) with 4MATIC®, the high-performance Mercedes-AMG® GLE 63 (550 hp, 516 lb.-ft.) and the GLE 63 S with 577 hp and 561 lb.-ft. of torque.

The new GLE 550e 4MATIC® plug-in hybrid powertrain uses a direct-injection 3.0-liter gasoline V6 plus an electric motor. The lithium-ion battery allows an electric-only range of up to 18.5-miles (estimated), and predictive energy management uses the navigation system to optimize gas/electric/hybrid operation.

The GLE line is equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission that provides an exemplary combination of performance, efficiency and quiet, responsive driving. The array of standard active and passive safety systems includes Collision Prevention Assist Plus, PRESAFE® PLUS with rear-end collision prevention and Crosswind Assist. In addition, the GLE can be equipped with Collision Prevention Assist Plus with autonomous braking and Distronic PLUS with Steering Assist.

Enhance Your Ownership

It’s easy to skip the extras you know you want in order to lower the bottom-line cost. However, buying at the time of sale can often save money in the long run. You can roll the purchase into your car loan, only minimally increasing your monthly payment. Purchasing some things right from the start may be a good option.

  • You can also save on taxes. The tax rate for a new-car purchase is capped at $300, and adding an accessory is considered to be part of that total purchase.
  • Buying an accessory with the purchase of the car often adds that part into the warranty, ensuring that it’s protected for years and miles to come.
