The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class remains a cut above its competition in sophistication and luxury, making it an excellent choice for anybody wanting a capable, comfortable and confident 2-row luxury SUV. A starting price just over $50,000 makes it surprisingly attainable as well.
The Lexus RX offers a softer ride and a price tag that’s $10,000 lower; the Acura RDX is agile and comfortable, and even less. The GLE is also limited to five passengers; if you need more room, you’ll have to step up to a 3-row SUV like the Mercedes GLS.
