Summary

Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC (2025) is rated by experts as the most balanced gasoline-powered model of the GLE, which offers an excellent 6-cylinder engine (M256) at speeds (5.6s 0-100 km/h) and instantaneous response thanks to MHEV technology. It stands out for its premium build quality, up-to-date MBUX technology, and excellent driving comfort. The main downsides are relatively high fuel consumption (11.8 L/100km), high maintenance costs, and common problems reported with V167 models such as airmatic system defects (if present), early software problems with the MBUX system, and problems with various electrical sensors.
