Meet the new Mercedes GLE!
The GLE sits between the GLC and GLS in Mercedes’s SUV range. The question is, should you choose it over its smaller or bigger brother? And does it offer enough to sway you away from competitors like the BMW X5 or Audi Q7?
Well for starters, let’s check out the design. On the outside, the car is still relatively similar to the previous car, but with a few key changes. Around the back there’s a set of new taillights, and along the side there are some new alloy wheel designs to choose from. Up front, it’s more of the same, although you’ll find an updated grille flanked by a set of new headlights and daytime running lights.
Step inside and you’ll find even more similarities to the old car. One of the key updates is the steering wheel, which now comes equipped with a load of touch sensitive buttons. But to be honest, we think they’re a bit fiddly to use, and if anything we’d rather have the old steering wheel back! Otherwise though the design is pretty nice, and there are soft touch materials throughout most of the cabin - just don’t reach down too low if you’re afraid of scratchy plastics!
When it comes to engine choices, there are a load to choose from. We’ve got our hands on the plug-in hybrid edition, which comes equipped with a 2-litre 4 cylinder petrol engine and an electric motor, which combine to produce 380hp. There are two diesels to choose from, with the range-topper being a 3-litre straight-six that delivers 390hp, and finally there are a few petrol options to choose from, with the range-topper of course being the AMG 63, which comes with a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that puts down 634hp.
Here’s the thing though, the GLE isn’t cheap! It starts from around £78,000, and if you’re looking for the plug-in hybrid like we have here, that’ll set you back around £93,000! So is it worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!
