Now the Swabians pull finally after and send the new Mercedes GLE Coupe a new BMW X6 competitor in the race. At the Detroit Motor Show in late January 2015, the new sports SUV with up to 367 hp. Since 2008 there has been sporting Bavaria, which is probably more than any other car for the pure beauty of unreason. That was the Stuttgart now but probably too great a thorn in the side so you now have is prudent to also occupy this niche in the program. All details about this balancing Grumpy it here.
Even from the outside makes the Mercedes GLE Coupe full on aggressive and sends a clear challenge to the BMW X6. The competitor from Swabia looks outwardly already almost like a 1: 1 copy of Müncheners from. Long-legged body, crouching held flat roof and a really short rear overhang.
This coupe-like lines to emphasize the character as a road-oriented Life Tyler. A pure SUVs do not want to be the sport SUV, however. New in 4.90 m long companions include LED headlights, the heated windscreen wipers and the screen system of the latest Mercedes-generation.
The motors of the customer is spoiled for choice between a diesel engine and two gasoline. The power range of the units ranges from 258 hp to 367 hp. Top model will be the GLE 450 4Matic AMG with nine-speed automatic transmission. All models are equipped with four-wheel drive. While the two versions GLE 350d and GLE 400 with a four-wheel torque distribution of 50:50, the top model GLE 450 AMG 60 percent of engine power is sent to the rear axle. This is to provide an improved driving dynamics.
In the top of a V6 Biturbo, which develops a maximum torque of 520 Nm is working. Who is the more sensible type, can rely on the 258 hp six-cylinder diesel engine and its weighty torque of 620 Nm. Should be more properly a lot of irrationality be a top priority in the scorebook, so you have to wait a bit longer, but an even stronger Sport model above the 450 GLE AMG is planned. Again, as BMW X6 competitor to enter the fight against the M version, which presses currently 381 hp on the asphalt.
