The GLE is the Mercedes-Benz large, five-seat luxury SUV formerly known as the M-class. The Mercedes-Benz GLE is available in India with petrol and diesel engine options with standard-fit all-wheel drive. This latest generation of GLE was launched in 2020 and is now a long-wheelbase model by default, the world over. It offers a four-cylinder diesel engine in the 300d with fewer frills at a lower starting point, while six-cylinder petrol and diesels are also available.

The Mercedes-Benz GLE is a large and handsome SUV which is best identified by its chunky C-pillar and wraparound rear glass. The GLE's cabin is large and airy and there's lots of room for rear-seat passengers to spread out thanks to its long-wheelbase layout. Seat comfort is good, with the six-cylinder versions even getting a power-adjusted second row, and there's a substantial amount of boot space available. Infotainment is courtesy Merc's MBUX touchscreen system, which looks good and is easy to operate. Six-cylinder models even get a superb sounding Burmester hi-fi audio system.
The Mercedes-Benz GLE range starts with the GLE 300d, powered by a 245hp, 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine. This misses out on some equipment and power is just about sufficient, but the lower price it's offered at makes it a tempting offer and this will likely be the variant of choice for most. The six-cylinder 400d offers effortless performance and surprising refinement and is the one to go for if money is no object. The 450 is a six-cylinder petrol paired with an ISG that adds 22hp and 250Nm of boost under hard acceleration. If refinement is priority, this is the one for you.
Ride comfort is pleasant across the board; although the GLE 300d, which sits on steel springs (and smaller 19-inch wheels), misses the added plushness offered by the 400d and 450’s air suspension. That said, none of the cars offer adaptive suspension so the ride quality can't be firmed up for better agility. As a result, the GLE is nice to steer but isn't what you would call 'sporty'.

It's easy to see why the four-cylinder variant of the GLE (formerly the ML) has always been the most successful in India. You miss some creature comforts, yes, but for a significantly lower outlay you're getting what's most important - a big SUV with loads of road presence and a three-pointed star on the nose. This new 300d fills that role perfectly, and Mercedes has made sure you don't feel shortchanged buying the 'entry level' model by loading it up well enough. Even its 245hp, 500Nm diesel engine feels strong enough for the most part. And that's why it's our pick of the range.
