FAMILY OF FIRSTS

MULTIPLE-

CHOICE ANSWER

Twenty years ago, customers asked the leader in automotive innovation, luxury and safety for

something entirely new: an SUV. Mercedes-Benz didn’t just answer the call. They created a line

of SUVs that continue to respond — in the moments that matter, and to generations of change.

Does it mat ter that the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLE is the direct descendant of the SUV that pioneered its entire class? Not nearly as much as where it’s gone since then. The engineering principles that introduced a long list of safety, performance and luxury innovations to SUVs are still inspiring it to break new ground. The devotion to driving enjoyment has become even more passionate. And with a choice of seven SUVs for 2017, the appeal of the GLE continues not just to grow but to multiply.

When you put other luxury SUVs to the test, how many ask you to compromise one thing for another? Is safety prioritized at the expense of style? Do you have to trade spacious comfort for nimble handling? Can you indulge in responsive power while being responsible about fuel efﬁciency and low emissions? When other SUVs ask you

to select A , B or C, the GLE invites you to check “all of the above.” Advanced driver assistance systems and top-rated safety go hand- in-hand with agile, athletic sportiness. The elegantly designed, richly ﬁnished cabin pays equal attention to tiny details and expansive space. And all of its powerplants — including a plug - in hybrid — combine heightened emotions with ultralow emissions.

Whatever you ask for, a GLE responds like no other SUV. It didn’t just pioneer a new segment of the market, it debuted countless SUV ﬁrsts. And it changed how we talk about SUVs—introducing words like agile, aerodynamic, reﬁned, secure, and even fun to the conversation. With eight drivetrains and multiple choices in styling, comfort and entertainment, there’s no wrong answer with a GLE SUV. But you can be sure there’s one that’s right for you.

PERFORMANCE

FIT FOR

YOUR FUTURE

To become not just an SUV but a Mercedes-Benz SUV, the GLE has to do more than ﬁt cargo.

It has to be physically ﬁt — with its muscle toned, and its agility honed. And it must be quick on

its feet — adapting instantly to changing surfaces, changing seasons, and changing times.

While the GLE SUV offers you a breadth of performance choices, it’s the depth of their engineering that you’ll appreciate most from behind the wheel. There are V6, V6 biturbo, V8 biturbo, and handcrafted AMG V8 biturbo engines. They all feature high -pressure Direct Injection and multispark ignition that self-tune in concert, and in real time: They can squeeze fuel into a superﬁne spray, and ﬁre the spark plugs multiple times in a single millisecond — for combustion that’s stronger, cleaner and more efﬁcient,3 all at once. There’s also a plug - in hybrid GLE 550e that pairs a V6 biturbo gas engine with an electric motor, to serve up 479 lb-ft of torque, 0–60 in just 5.3 seconds,4 and up to 50 MPGe on the highway with its lithium-ion batter y fully charged.

In most GLE SUVs, a smooth, quick -shifting 7G- TRONIC transmission features an intuitive electronic selector, or you can take charge of its seven speeds via sporty shif t paddles — all without taking your hands off the wheel. The V6 biturbo GLE 400 and AMG GLE 43 feature a new, even more versatile 9-speed 9G -TRONIC. Also standard on most every GLE, 4matic® all - wheel drive continually

sends power to the wheels with the best grip — to turn to rq ue in to tr ac tio n if on e, tw o or even thr e e ti res slip.5 A sporty rear - wheel - drive GLE 350 model is available, too.

The GLE’s 4- wheel independent multilink suspension balances composed ride comfort with crisp handling. Its standard selective damping automatically adjusts each shock absorber to the road sur face and body motions — ﬁrming up in corners, yet forgiving over rough roads. On some models, self- leveling AIRMATIC® sus pe ns io n* lets you ride on a literal cushion of air, balancing comfort and handling automatically as roads and loads vary. It lowers at higher speeds to enhance stabilit y and save fuel. Or you can raise it to negotiate deep ruts or snow.

For more ex treme driving, the ACTIVE CURVE SYSTEM* features electrohydraulic stabilizers that tighten up in corners to help reduce body lean, or relax to enhance comfor t. And on every GLE, standard Crosswind Assist helps to seamlessly compensate for strong side gusts or passing trucks, while Trailer Stability Assist can help ma ke to win g more se cur e by act i ng to quel l trail er swa y.6
