Summary

The Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 (2025) is rated by experts as a luxury SUV with smooth driving and high interior quality, thanks to the new chassis (V167 facelift) and the advanced MBUX system. The 4-cylinder engine (M254) powered by the Mild Hybrid system offers good torque and is efficient to the standards of large SUVs (23 MPG EPA). The main downsides include high maintenance costs, average performance (7.2s 0-100 km/h) due to heavy weight, and common problems reported with this generation V167 such as AIRMATIC system defects (if optional), electrical/sensor problems, and any reluctance of the 9G-TRONIC transmission at low speeds.
