With the new active chassis E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL featuring air suspension, you can enjoy the latest intelligent suspension technologies and an unparalleled driving experience.
With the driving program "Curve", the vehicle tilts smoothly during turns. This minimizes lateral forces and significantly increases comfort and driving dynamics. With the driving program "Comfort", the ROAD SURFACE SCAN function with a stereo camera detects the road ahead of the vehicle. The suspension is adjusted so that the body moves considerably less when driving over road bumps. You can also choose the driving programs "Sport" and "Offroad".
The GLE with the new engine accelerates faster and more efficiently than ever before. You can choose from a 4-cylinder diesel, a smoothly operating and intelligently electrified 6-cylinder engine, or the most impressive V8 engine.
The new 4 and 6-cylinder diesel engines are among the most efficient in their class and meet the strictest emission standards. Their consumption figures are lower than those of all other luxury SUVs.
In addition to the turbo engine, the new gasoline inline 6-cylinder and V8 engines feature integrated starter generators, additional electric compressors, and a 48-volt electrical system. The integrated electric motor acts as EQ Boost for the internal combustion engine, allowing for smooth gliding even without the internal combustion engine, with electricity supplied to the high-efficiency 48-volt electrical system.
Furthermore, all models can come with the 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission and 4MATIC all-wheel drive.
