This doesn’t have adaptive cruise control. It’s part of the add on Driver Assistance Package for about $2k extra.
Great review, love the channel!!
Why no comments on suspension? Is AIRMATIC an option for 350? Don’t see many 450s also with this option. Is it not a must for a good smooth ride?
It’s crazy that it went from $57k to $62k base MSRP just for default 4matic mild hybrid and some minor updates. 👎
It's crazy that every bystander can bla-bla-bla without absolutely no idea what he is talking about...all you MB haters with big mouths and empty pockets are so so funny 😅
@@Iwasnever_hereI’m torn between this and an Audi Q7 55 premium plus
do you prefer AWS over RWD? I feel like I want AWD for when it rains.
Is this the same engine as in the new GLC?
Nice review ... Agree with u 😊
I am still debating if I should go with this or go electric
Oh god i gottta have this its so good looking but at least 450
I owned the 2023 GLE350 2 times, and 2024 1 time. This vehicle did not change at all when compared to even the 2020. Still can’t understand how what should be standard isn’t like heated mirrors or lane assist.
I have a 2021 gel 350, got into a collision and now have to buy a new car…biggest issue with this gle350 is the speed. It’s too slow to pick up, hate the auto start and the wired Apple car play. Now looking at a Genesis…
I have a question about the wear of the tires. We have a 2021 Mercedes GLE350. Needed to change back tires at 19k miles and the front at 23k miles. We were toled the safety of the brakes kick in before you touch the brakes and this wears the tires a lot faster. Any truth to that? The car came with contential tires now we have Perilies tires both rated for 45k miles. If you have any thoughts or information on our concerns please let us know. Thank you for taking the time to reading and answering our questions. Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions
Late response but I’ve driven the car 5 ish thousand miles and it just feels like a well handling heavy suv that’s going to wear the tires more than the average sled esp without 4matic. The big summer tires it takes aren’t cheap of course. The brake assistance tire wear explanation sounds like bs, but who knows. 2022 model.
I agree the I 4 isn’t enough power, it’s a heavy vehicle.
I got my 2024 GLE 350 a little over a week ago here in NJ and i love it! i traded in my 2020 sq5 so its been an adjustment LOL but i love the vehicle very much! nice review
just curious why did you switch?
@@birk4951probably wanted a bigger vehicles sq5 is glc sized
2016-2018 GLE is the BEST by far Non turbo so no breakdowns and basic maintenance Also they cone RWD
Amazing good beautiful car❤❤❤❤❤❤
I had one of these and really loved it my only complaint is the 2.0L, for a $75k it’s just “enough”.
Don't see too many GLE drivers flooring it anyway lol
i have a 2021 GLE and i break boost on every red light 😂i push this baby like a honda civic
@@arunjeyaseelan5375 oh there's always a few, especially if it's AMG, but around here outside of them they're mostly chill old man drivers.
@@godofdunReading your comment made me chuckle. I had to ask myself if I am becoming a chill old man, lol.
@@godofdun That's right. I am old, but no shame! Wish you would have a chance to pass the threshold and to be old.
Got me saying “wrist rest” ten times in a row 😂
75K MSRP for a car that comes with 4 cylinder engine and has been stripped down from such basics as adaptive cruise control... Paired with really sketchy MB reliability and no provided maintenance program, it really is no brainer - pass!
does it still have fake exhausts?!
Yeh, but it’s a dual exhaust. I’m not sure why people hate it so much. Real exhausts get black quick and are a PITA to clean.
2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE350 4MATIC 2.0L Turbocharged 4-Cylinder 9-Speed Automatic AMG Line!
No, and I'm not sure why Mercedes hasn't upgraded their "350" models to the 300hp version of this engine. 255hp in the GLE is just not enough.
Agreed, the vehicle is very heavy and heavier when you have people in the car. That 4 cylinder just won’t cut it.
If you think the 350 is underpowered, then you are not the target for that version. You should buy the V6. There is no point making the V6 if the 4 cylinder is already doing what should be done by the V6. The 350 needs to provide fuel economy, which may be lost if they increase the horsepower. If you need more power than the 350, then look elsewhere.
@@aezean5618None of that makes any sense. There is no V6 and the I4 is NOT doing the job of the I6. Clearly you don’t know a thing about engines and what their differences are.
the x5 ticks more boxes then this. Mercedes has gone down in quality.@@aezean5618
@@aezean5618 fuel economies of GLE 350 and GLE 450 are very close.
❤❤
Just drive it.. you be surprised..
They should not make the GLE 350, it accelerates in slow motion
If you want more acceleration you should buy the V6. There are people who are happy with that slow acceleration if that also gives them fuel economy
not a very helpful review. no one needs you to point out chrome trim, or nonsense. no comment on the vibration, acceleration, or anything else someone would care to know. i'd like my 5 minutes of life back. sorry to be critical but it wasnt useful.
7 reasons why you shouldn`t buy a GLE 350. - 0-60 , 8 seconds.That`s slower than a Grand Cherokee with an engine older than the hills. - Some of the worst reliabilty ratings of any SUV out there. Certainly the worst Merc right now - Performs like a Highlander for more than twice the price. Totally overpriced car. - Suspension like a Pretzel. This thing handles like a rubber duck. - If you like to spend 65 K on plastic seats, go right ahead. - Be prepared to fix the brakes (including rotors) every 25K miles - You can get an X5 50e for the same money. Double the horsepower and air suspension. But hey, there`s good news. Here is why you should buy one: You don`t know the first thing about cars and neither do the folks who think you bought a great SUV. You think Mickey Mouse screens, cartoonish displays and disco lights are the most important thing in a new car. You don`t care about tons of issues with your car cause you got a Merc. And last but not least, you want to drive a Merc but can`t afford a real one. Kind a like the C-Class buyers who think they drive a baby S-Class. It`s nowhere near an S-Class; it`s a joke with as bad an engine as this ridiculous GLE.
Was at the dealer today. 85K for a 6 cyclinder!! NO F'n way. I still have my 2005 ML350 with 140K on. Drives like a tank and does better mileage than this version. Mom was looking at them today and i told her "lets get the hell outta here!" The prices are out of control and i cant wait for the car bubble to pop!
Better than X5
Those interior materials look so cheap lol nah this ain't it chief
You gotta see it in person bro , it’s top notch
The X5 and Genesis eat this things lunch. This is so corny and the interior look cheap. Get it together Merc 😂😂😂
NPC Karen vehicle, what a rip-off. "German engineering" is an ancienty myth, cheap 2.0 4-cylinder. A small company like Mazda was able to build a 3.3 I6 engine that is more efficient than this...
