What’s New for the 2020 GLE-Class?

A perennial leader in the luxury mid-size crossover segment , the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class has long impressed Grand Rapids and Holland drivers with its opulent cabin design, wealth of features, and prodigious performance. Returning for the 2020 model year, the GLE-class sports a complete redesign, and improves on the already exceptional experience in almost every way. Here’s a real quick rundown of what’s new.

Ample Accommodation: The 2020 GLE-Class is now available with a third-row, expanding seating capacity from five to seven people. The seats can be easily folded, allowing Grandville drivers the option of at-will prioritization of seating or cargo capacity.

Intuitive Infotainment: The industry leading MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment lives up to its name with numerous advanced functions and natural language voice recognition.

• Proximity key entry

Potent Power: New for the 2020 model year, the GLE 450 is powered by a hybrid-electric turbocharged six-cylinder engine that puts out 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque.
