You'll see how each change affects your daily drive, your family road trips, and the loads you pull.
Power and Performance
All four 2027 Mercedes-Benz GLE powertrains pair with standard 4MATIC® all-wheel drive. The Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 4MATIC® combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with mild-hybrid assistance for 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Step up to the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC®, and a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six produces 375 horsepower and an increased 413 lb-ft. A new plug-in hybrid, the Mercedes-Benz GLE 500e 4MATIC®, achieves a combined 429 horsepower and 502 lb-ft. At the top, the V8-powered Mercedes-Benz GLE 580 4MATIC® puts out 530 horsepower and 553 lb-ft.
Technology Features
Three 12.3-inch displays form the standard MBUX® Superscreen, giving your front passenger a dedicated screen while you navigate. The new Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB.OS) runs fourth-generation MBUX® with an AI-based voice assistant and over-the-air updates, so your 2027 Mercedes-Benz GLE keeps improving after you drive away. AIRMATIC® air suspension, standard on the Mercedes-Benz GLE 580 4MATIC® and optional elsewhere, adds intelligent damping that can prepare for upcoming speed bumps for a smoother ride.
Safety Features
Tight parking spaces become easier with standard MB.DRIVE PARKING ASSIST®, which guides you in and out, and a standard 360-degree camera that reveals obstacles around the vehicle. Standard lane-keeping and blind-spot assistance support your everyday drives, and the team at Mercedes-Benz of Fort Washington can explain how each system works. Should this new Mercedes-Benz SUV detect an impending collision, PRE-SAFE® can prepare the front seats and seat belts, and a standard airbag between the front seats adds occupant protection.
Towing and Cargo
Five seats come standard, and an optional third row lets the 2027 Mercedes-Benz GLE carry up to seven people. Second-row seats fold in a 40/20/40 split, so you can slide skis through the center while two passengers ride comfortably. In the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4MATIC®, cargo space ranges from 33.3 to 74.9 cubic feet, and towing capacity reaches 7,700 lbs when properly equipped.
