Mercedes-Benz refreshed its GLE Coupe lineup in early 2023 and added more functions and features to the well-known premium SUV while boosting the powertrains and improving the vehicle's look.
The fourth generation of the GLE (previously known as the ML-Class) was introduced in late 2018 at the Paris Motor Show. However, by 2023 it had already started to show its age not only on its exterior but also on its underpinnings. That's why the German automaker added a facelifted version that drastically improved the car.
From the outside, the coupe version featured an improved front fascia with standard high-performance LED and two points for the daytime running lights, and four points for versions fitted with the multibeam LED technology. Its grille also sported a new double slat. Finally, the GLE Coupe featured two horizontal blocks on the taillights at the back, divided between the rear quarter panels and the racked-forward tailgate.
Inside, the automaker added new bolstered high-mounted seats for the front occupants and a split-folding bench in the rear. In addition, Mercedes-Benz installed two wide screens on the dashboard covered by a single glass panel. The one placed in front of the driver showed the instrument panel, while the other one, placed atop the center stack, was for the MBAUX infotainment system. New features were also added to the car, including a system that could help the driver when backing up with a trailer attached.
Under the hood, the German automaker introduced a new generation of hybrid drivetrains that included an integrated starter generator (ISG), which helped the luxurious GLE Coupe attain better fuel efficiency. As expected, all versions were paired with a nine-speed automatic gearbox that sent the power to all corners.
