2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC SUV Specs

The GLE 450 sits mid-way in the GLE range, but in base format it only offers one key difference. Instead of a four-cylinder engine, under the hood lies a new 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder developing 362 horsepower. It's aided by electric augmentation from a 48-volt system called EQ Boost, which in addition to the extra power also smooths out the auto stop/start functionality for extra comfort. Furthering the comfort benefits of the GLE 450 is the available E-Active Body Control, using cameras, electronic actuators, and air suspension to preemptively adapt the suspension to compensate for curves and bumps. No SUV this side of $100,000 rides this smoothly.
