Overview

In a world of boxy crossovers, the fastback GLE43 and GLE63 S are welcome peculiarities. These performance powerhouses have the muscle to match, too. The GLE coupe is based on the previous-generation Mercedes-Benz GLE-class; we expect GLE coupe models to migrate to the all-new platform soon.

Engines, Ride, and Handling

A 385-hp twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 powers the GLE43 and comes hooked up to a nine-speed automatic, while the GLE63 S gets a mighty 577-hp twin-turbo 5.5-liter V-8 with a seven-speed automatic. In our testing, the GLE63 S hit 60 mph in 3.9 seconds; the GLE43 managed a still-quick 5.3 seconds. All-wheel drive is standard on both models.

Interior and Technology

The GLE coupe's passenger space isn't compromised too much versus the normal squareback model's, although cargo space behind the second row suffers thanks to the dramatically sloped roofline. While the cabin isn't up to the same standards as more modern Mercedes-AMG vehicles, it still comes with plenty of luxuries including heated front seats, a power liftgate, dual-zone automatic climate control, a stitched faux-leather dashboard, and an 8.0-inch infotainment display with navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto capability. High-tech features such as automated emergency braking and lane-keeping assist help you keep the shiny side up; additional driver-assistance features are available as options, including adaptive cruise control and a self-parking feature.
