What Owners are Saying About the 2027 Mercedes-Benz GLE
"The GLE is very impressive"
"Have only about 1000 miles on my GLE 350. The interior is best in class, exterior is conservative however tasteful unlike the Lexus RX , which IMHO is drastic and has become boring. The 350 is not quick from a dead stop, in all other situations power is more than adequate. Cruising at 90mph is effortless and extremely comfortable. Problems I’ve encountered thus far is an inconsistent whistling sound from driver’s side mirror, gas tank filler door is not perfectly flush with body. Both are items I have chosen to just live with for now. The 450 is probably better suited for this vehicle, however it is about $6k more and for 95% of all driving situations is realistically not needed. Tested the Lexus RX as well as the BMW X5 , eliminated the RX rather quickly, and the X5 just seemed to be a generation behind, however a great vehicle. There are many posts talking about problems with the GLE and how Mercedes has come down in quality, I hope that it is not true. I’ve had 2 BMWs and 5 Mercedes and quality has not been an issue with any of them. Most owners would not bother posting anything if there were no problems, therefore we are overwhelmingly reading the posts of individuals experiencing some issues, however minor they may be. I love driving my GLE 350, and I have zero second thoughts regarding my decision."
"Amazing car"
"The AMG GLE coupe is a sexy looking car, high end interior and very comfortable!! Definitely recommend on getting this model if you like coupe style vehicles!!"
"Great car!"
"I came previously from 3 Volvos and 2 teslas. This is definitely the best car I’ve had so far. So many features and well worth the money. Very comfortable, reliable, and lovely features. I’ve already driven half way across the country and no issues. The only thing is I wish the ventilated seats were better at cooling, especially in the southern heat."
