2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class
Price: $63.000–$94.700

Overview

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLE-class gives luxury SUV shoppers a mid-size choice between its compact GLC and larger GLS siblings. Within the GLE lineup, you have the choice of four distinct engine ranging from a turbocharged inline-four to a twin-turbo V-8, and that’s not including two potent AMG models that are reviewed separately. This year, new Manufaktur aesthetic options give shoppers more ways to personalize their ride, while a $12,250 Signature Interior package blurs the line between "regular" Benzes and the Maybach line. These non-AMG GLE models excel at comfort and luxury, but lack the flash and athleticism of the rival Genesis GV80 or Porsche Cayenne. If you prioritize opulence over performance, the GLE-class is an excellent pick. Just make sure to keep an eye on the price of those options.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

Models wearing the GLE350 badge are powered by a 255-hp turbocharged four-cylinder engine with either rear- or all-wheel drive (4Matic in Mercedes parlance) and a nine-speed automatic transmission. Stepping up to the GLE450 brings standard all-wheel drive and a 362-hp powertrain that consists of a turbocharged inline-six. Both the GLE350 and GLE450 utilize 48-volt hybrid systems. The GLE450e's plug-in hybrid powertrain comprises a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and an electric motor that combine for a total of 381 horsepower, but we review that model separately. While the souped-up Mercedes-AMG GLE53 (reviewed separately) brings even more heat, the Benz-branded GLE580 represents the most powerful and expensive non-AMG model. Here, a 48-volt system combines with a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 to make up to 504 horsepower. Every GLE can be outfitted with an advanced air-suspension system that can lean into corners and even wiggle itself loose if the driver gets it stuck in sand or mud. The standard setup is traditional steel springs and anti-roll bars.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

Fine materials such as genuine leather, wood, and metal impart a sense of true luxury inside the GLE, but they also add a pretty penny to the bottom line. Not only can the front seats be heated, but the armrests and center console lid can, too—quickly taking the chill out of a frigid morning. The spacious interior can be outfitted with an optional third row of seats (a tad snug for adults). The GLE’s dashboard boasts prominent displays, and the interior is filled with other tech-focused bells and whistles. With the optional third-row seats stowed, we fit 11 carry-on suitcases in the cargo area. With all seats folded flat, the GLE offers room for up to 26 carry-ons. The rival X5 matches the Mercedes in both metrics, but other competitors such as the more coupelike Audi Q8 held far fewer. The GLE450 Coupe has a less spacious cargo area due to its sloped roof.
