Mercedes-Benz GLE Leasing

All but the front seats fold down as standard in the GLE. However, they’re not electrically powered like in the competitor Audi Q7. Boot space is decent but the Audi, as well as the Land Rover Discovery, can carry more. 

The load bay is square-shaped and the wheel arches don’t eat too much of the space there. There’s room for a decent amount of luggage, even with 7 people, and with the 2nd- and 3rd-row seats folded, it has good capacity.

The hybrid GLE350de’s boot shrinks from 630 litres to just 490 because of the location of the large 31.2kWh battery pack.

The plug-in hybrid GLE350de is the greenest in the range with just 19g/km of CO2 emissions and 66 miles of electric-only range. This beats the BMW X5 xDrive45e. Both it and the BMW are in the same BIK company car tax bracket, but the Mercedes has a lower list price. To get the most out of it, you’d have to use the plug as often as the pump. That’s the only way you’ll ever get near the official combined economy figure of 256.8mpg.

Otherwise, the base GLE300d is the one to go for if this is the main concern. It beats most rivals in fuel economy tests, both according to manufacturers’ claims and independent tests from magazines, as it can return up to 55.3mpg combined.

Mercedes has a good reputation for reliability and build quality, and the GLE should be no exception. Its dealers also rank highly for customer satisfaction.

With the 3rd row folded, the GLE has 630 litres of boot space. Slide the middle row forward and the storage figure climbs to 825 litres. With the middle row folded down as well, the GLE has 2055 litres of boot space.

There are 4 main trim lines in total, which are the AMG Line, the AMG Line Executive, the AMG Line Premium, and finally, the AMG Line Premium Plus. Both the AMG GLE53 and GLE63S classify as separate, higher time levels in their own right.

All models come with parking sensors and the AMG Line Premium adds a 360-degree camera as part of the Parking Package.

The Mercedes GLE gets a decent-sized boot and has space enough for 7 people. There are also plenty of storage places throughout the cabin for various odds and ends.

SUVs are very popular right now and 7-seater SUVs have all but killed the MPV. The Mercedes GLE offers the same practicality you would get in any MPV, but with a premium badge and all the luxuries that go with it.
