"The Mercedes GLE is a full-size SUV, which is well equipped and very stylish."
The Mercedes GLE SUV was one of several new 4x4 cars, the marker area in 2015. There join competes with the BMW X5 and Audi Q7 and cars like the Range Rover Sport, Volkswagen Touareg, Porsche Cayenne and Volvo XC0.
The GLE is basically a sturdy car off-road, which sits next to the Mercedes E class saloon, just like the Mercedes GLA-Class based on the Mercedes A-Class sedan and the Mercedes GLC-Class is based on the Mercedes C-class sedan. Mercedes fees and additional £ 15,000 or so expensive for the GLE-class compared to the sedan, but the E-Class, and a "base" GLE is about £ 5,000 as an entry-level BMW X5. In fact, with the excellent (and new) seven-seater Volvo XC0 is cheaper, is the GLE-class "price one of the biggest sticking points.

for the sake of fairness, the GLE certainly more stylish than the boxier Mercedes M-class SUV that replaced it technically, and the visual appeal is improve if you choose the optional AMG body kit and larger alloy wheels.
the interior is definitely capable of holding five passengers with ease and the boot can swallow a considerable amount of luggage. It is not a class manager for space, but it does not fall significantly short of the competition In fact, it makes better than the BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne for trunk, considering they are among the few GLE rivals offer five seats as standard -.. Although the X5 with seven Sitting be specified, in contrast to the GLE
suspending the Merc is a little hard, but the ride quality can be improved by specifying the optional air suspension system. The drive can also be changed by the Dynamic Ride system, but sport mode only makes it more uncomfortable. Like most of its competitors is the GLE much better suited to a relaxing cruise, as it is driving on the limit.

There are a wide range of motors but the two diesels are likely to be the biggest sellers. The 250d is equipped with a four-cylinder engine, which returns 47.9mpg, costs £ 185 per year in road tax and goes from 0-62mph in 8.6 seconds. Moving to the 350d until you get a smoother and quieter six-cylinder engine, which takes the GLE from 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds, while fuel consumption and emissions to slip by only about 10% with this model: there are 42.8mpg and emits 179 g / km CO2, so that the road tax per year £ 230. There is also a hybrid model that connected a 3.0-liter V6 petrol with an electric motor used. These 500e is by far the most economical model in the GLE sector because they can return a claimed 76mpg fuel consumption.
At the other end of the scale, two mad are AMG high-performance models. The GLE 43 AMG has 362bhp and is capable of 0-62mph in 5.7 seconds while the top model GLE 63 S AMG has a 577bhp engine that rockets the car from 0-62mph in just 4.2 seconds. Both are quite expensive to buy and to run, but: the GLE 43 is £ 10,000 more than the entry-level 250d, during the GLE 63 S AMG will cost about £ 0,000. Efficiency is, as you would expect, affected by all this performance, with fuel consumption 32.8 or 23.9mpg and road tax costs £ 270 or £ 515, respectively.
Mercedes offers the GLE in three orders. Entry-level sports cars come with leather seats, LED headlights, a rearview camera and 19-inch alloy wheels, while AMG line adds 20-inch alloy wheels, a sporty bodykit, adjustable air suspension and sport seats that are heated in the front.
top-of-the-range Designo line, adds now a 360-degree rear view camera, upgraded soft Napa massaging leather upholstery, front seats, a panoramic sunroof and a Harmon Kardon stereo. With designo addition of about £ 9,000 to the price of GLE, our choice of GLE 350d would be mid-spec AMG Line trim. The more powerful diesel makes the GLE a relaxing cruiser and is easier to live with on a day to day, as the 250d, while the AMG-line specification that you are more than enough luxury.
The GLE-Class certainly feels like a solidly built car and while Mercedes '12. Place (of 32 manufacturers) in our 2016 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey is fine, though not very good, the brand better than its main competitors, BMW and Audi. The GLE should also be a very safe car; while it has not gone through his own safety tests, adds its sheer size reassurance, as the five-star rating from Euro NCAP the outgoing Mercedes M-Class won, which is the GLE mechanically identical.
