Mercedes-AMG GLE SUV

Three kinds of boost. All sorts of strength.

AMG GLE 53 SUV

Possibly the most technologically advanced luxury performance SUV on the market, the AMG GLE 53 is electrified, and electrifying. With triple-boosted torque, intelligent all-wheel drive and a widescreen cockpit, it's charging into a new generation of power.

A race that knows no finish line.

In an old mill in 1967, two engineers with a passion for motorsports began turning Mercedes-Benz sedans into winning racecars. Today, AMG continues to create victory on the track and desire on the streets of the world. Every Mercedes-AMG vehicle is the product of craftsmen, designers, engineers and racers who live for a singular goal: Driving Performance.

Born to perform, developed to outperform

A Mercedes-AMG engine starts with the state of the art. Everything from fuel pressure to exhaust routing is developed to quicken, heighten and intensify its response, and yours. From patented processes to cut friction to a new generation of electrified performance, AMG technology is fueled by its racing success.

Triple-boosted, for a torrent of torque

An advanced engine teams twin-scroll turbocharging with 48-volt hybrid drive that can add 184 lb-ft of electric torque. The 429-hp turbo inline-6 is further boosted by an electric compressor, to whisk the GLE 53 to 60 in 5.2 seconds. ^{Disclaimer[8]}

Nine speeds, for response across the range

Numerous performance enhancements make the AMG SPEEDSHIFT® TCT 9-speed a driver's delight on any road, at any rpm. With the multiple modes of AMG DYNAMIC SELECT, you can enjoy perks like rev-matched downshifts, and quicker-then-ever paddle-shifted manual gear changes.

Variable-torque all-wheel drive, to turn traction to action

AMG Performance 4MATIC+ sends power to the wheels that can best turn grip into go, and tenacity into agility. From decisive launches to powering out of corners, 4MATIC+ can vary the torque split from AWD to 100% RWD. ^{Disclaimer[9]}

Agility born on the unbeaten track

Everything AMG learns in its racetrack victories improves how its vehicles perform on the street. With a range of features, a variety of driving modes, and an agile all-wheel drive system, an AMG GLE will remind you every day what the S in SUV stands for. ^{Disclaimer[9]}

Multiple modes, for all your driving moods

AMG DYNAMIC SELECT lets you fine-tune your GLE's performance via a console control or the available steering-wheel AMG DRIVE UNIT. Seven programs, from Comfort, Sport+ and Sand to your own Individual mode, can vary throttle mapping, shifting, suspension and more. ^{Disclaimer[10]} ^{Disclaimer[11]}

Surround sound, from a tailpipe symphony

The GLE 53's AMG Sport Exhaust accentuates the AMG soundtrack under revs, yet stays melodious when you're cruising. Computer-controlled flaps on the optional AMG Performance Exhaust let you conduct the orchestra yourself via AMG DYNAMIC SELECT or direct actuation.

Calipers of a higher caliber, and then some

AMG GLE braking systems feature multipiston front calipers grasping sizable perforated discs. Huge 16.5-inch/6-piston front brakes are an even mightier option. ^{Disclaimer[12]}

Air out some curves, or actively flatten them

AMG RIDE CONTROL+ air suspension optimizes driving dynamics and comfort. Its 3-stage adaptive damping responds to roads, loads, and driving modes. It can lower at speed to enhance stability and efficiency, or you can raise it to negotiate ruts and ramps. Available AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL adds an innovative roll stabilization system.

A new, and higher, definition performance.

The AMG GLE digital cockpit presents performance as brilliantly as it represents it: A wide range of customizable settings and readouts are delivered via dual widescreen displays. Precise controls connect you to its precisely controlled handling. And its luxury touches are a treat to touch.

The sense of control takes a turn

Offered in several styles, the AMG Performance steering wheel's contoured side grips invite your ideal grip, keeping the shift paddles and clever touchpads nearby. The optional AMG DRIVE UNIT's color display buttons put key performance settings on the wheel.

The power of choice continues

With eight distinctive trim options and a spectrum of upholsteries, you can tailor your AMG GLE to suit your style. Reconfigurable digital instruments with AMG-exclusive displays, as well as 64-color LED ambient lighting, let you suit your changing moods.

The sporting soul shines on every surface

Supersized AMG® wheels fill the flared wheel arches and frame the substantial brake hardware. GLE 53 wheels are available in seven designs from 20 to 22 inches. ^{Disclaimer[13]}

The look of a legend rushes ahead

While the AMG grille and power-dome hood are steeped in motorsports heritage, the GLE bodies are pure modern muscle. Aero-aggressive aprons and all-LED lighting assert the power and advanced technology within. The AMG Night Package adds bold black elements from front to rear, wheels to roof rails.
