2021 Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 4MATIC SUV Specs

The Mercedes-AMG GLE53 is the perfect choice for those who desire lukewarm performance and luxury but don’t want to indebt themselves with a full-fat GLE63. The GLE53 is an excellent contender in the midsize performance SUV segment; it offers a wonderfully-engineered 429-hp powertrain and a gorgeous interior to boot. It’s also considerably more affordable than most rivals in the go-fast SUV category, though slightly less powerful. Overall, the GLE is highly pleasurable to drive - it also offers comfort and convenience in ample amounts thanks to heated front seats, dual 12.3-inch screens, dual-zone climate control and a premium 13-speaker sound system. It’s not fire-breathing like some of the other contenders, but it’s certainly one of the most refined.zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
