I never thought I'd legitimately be looking at a Mercedes Benz, in a serious fashion... But this one... this one is the one I want. (But, if I'm being honest... the Durango had been ranking for what I was going for...) Oh, and Deutsche qualiät! 👌
I visited Mercedes Benz Princeton NJ today, initially i was going for the new GLA 250 but i fell in love with GLE 350. Am getting this for y Bday, this coming Oct 2022. I just cannot wait.
450 comes with 4MATIC as standard where the 350 does not (have to pay extra for it). 450 comes with 48 volt system where the 350 does not. 450 is a mild hybrid where the 350 is not.
I have a Toyota Sequoia / 4 WD .. 85 K miles Fully paid for .. Smooth as silk , Seats 7 , 4 Captains Chairs. 16 mpg .. Safe beyond belief . Got LED headlights and Foglights . No worries at $3.50 a gallon . Yup .. got roof rack .
@@smitabradley6849 Owned it for over 10 months now. The only issue I ran into recently (last week) was the internal valve switch for the hybrid version causing engine failure warnings. As it was under warranty, they rectified within a couple of days. You shouldnt have these issues with the non hybrid. Even after the issue with the valve, honestly its a fantastic car, hellova road presence ( I live in UK), packed full of tech, and the smoothest ride ever. It will not dissapoint :)
@@devidodge thank you currently driving Toyota 4 runner and it’s a great truck with zero issues Glad you got it fix and drive with a great health much love ❤️
I was always wondering how to lower the car to the lowest setting (-2) because (-1) activates in sports mode but I can't manage to lower it further. Is there any trick to it? Thanks
I must say this is the best GLE spec I've seen reviewed on RU-vid! Absolutely glorious spec!! Red with black accent is really a beauty & it has so many options added as well which is really cool compared to other RU-vidrs & their cars are boring colors & not so many options added. BUT this!!! 😍🤌
The Mercedes seems to be the sweet spot between the Audi Q7 and BMW X5 but I would get the GLE 450 6 cylinder. The 4 pot on this heavy SUV might be too little and would disappoint.
We traded an Acura RDX on a GLE 450 because I wanted to try a high end SUV . The vehicle is beautiful inside and out and drives like a smaller car than its 5000 lbs weight. It gets better than 20 mpg on premium fuel. We will see how dependable it is over time.
Not a fan of the black-out styling. It seems to be a way to create something new using a less expensive material. I prefer chrome over plastic whether it's metallic or black plastic. The black plastic does appear dull once it gets any amount of dirt or dust on it. I suspect this feature will date itself when it gets replaced by another material.
They do. The way the pack the options make it impossible to configure the vehicle exactly how you would want it. It is done so in order to spend more in the end. I could not get mine with the wheels I want it for this very reason.
The base version of the GLE isn't really worth the $$. The Genesis GV80's base engine has more HP & torque standard & optional packages cost less to get it well-equipped or fully-loaded & it has a more distinctive interior
She's clueless. For instance she said the GLE has less cargo room than the Q7. That's not true. Q7 only has 69 cubic feet of total cargo space whereas the X5 has 72 and the GLE almost 75! The GLE has the most cargo room of the three. They need to get people to review cars who actually know what they are talking about.
Discount Bentley Bentayga for wealthy people wannabes. Would much rather have a Lexus or Volvo. Much more subtle and they have their own design language, instead of Hyundai's copycat design
@@TheGamingAudiophile Actually what smart people do is that they don't waste 80k on a depreciating asset or spend 1000 dollars a month on a lease and instead buy a good used car and save the rest or invest it. Also, funny you mention sheep buy badges, when this Genesis thing, is in itself, a badge, and your the sheep buying into this semi-luxury brands marketing.
Ehh interior looks generic to me lmfao, this looks way better on the inside. Mercedes was also first to have the two dual displays which now every other manufacturer is copying
@@colechapman6976 Value is subjective. What may seem like a waste to you purchasing a $80k car is a light splurge that has no impact on their net worth to someone else.
