The delay on the fuel flap (and the reason you have to use the button) is because the tank is pressurised and not vented like a normal tank. It needs to vent before you can open the cap. This reduces hydrocarbons evaporating from your fuel which reduces emissions and your fuel keeps its quality longer. Also the wood is actually real veneer

X5 does the delay fuel door thing too; totally fine. Also, many people don't carry charging cables with a PHEV (no reason to seek out charge on the road, other than novelty); main savings is charging overnight at home, short city driving. Understanding the typical owner usage patterns would help in the reviews.

We spent awhile looking at EV and Hybrid. We chose hybrid as having option for petrol for long trips just made sense. It’s 100% the way to go to have the flexibility. Decided hybrid and narrowed to X5 and GLE hybrid. They are the clear top IMO as you really need 50-60 miles EV to make it make sense. Went MB as we couldn’t find a BMW spec we liked as choices are slim ATM. I disagree most won’t charge it as the car comes with a standard charger and only takes 3 hours. No fast charger install needed. Super easy and convenient to simply plug in at night vs. going to a gas station. We have averaged 58 miles in our GLE 450e in EV so if your daily commute is around 60 miles you can’t go wrong with it. $2.50 EV vs. $15 in gas where we are per day. We are saving around $300/mo in fuel differential but more Importantly is just the convenience of simple plug in at night but still having gas engine for longer commutes.

I just replaced my GLE 350DE after 60k miles of use, totally loved it despite the size. The size was an odd issue for me as its bulk was mainly the flared arches and general design, looks great but in tight city spaces and narrow roads cumbersome. I only changed it as they dropped the diesel hybrid, which is an amazing engine combination - powerful and 45 mpg average economy. The petrol replacement at low 20 mpg makes little sense for me, especially as the electric motor range averaged 40 miles in summer and 25 in winter. The comfort was amazing, although the air suspension rolled too much for some passengers at times. I have now taken delivery of the new GLC 300DE, similar spec as the GLE, bit smaller, much tighter to drive and with an 80 mile average electric range and 72 mpg (so far) overall average, jumping from the GLE to the GLC no real compromise in comfort, bit less space in the back and a much better interior than the GLE.

I would say the GLC is sharper, less roll through corners, not quite as bump absorbing as the GLE but a much tighter engaging drive. I understand from a contact that although european GLE sales have dropped through the floor, replaced by the GLC in many cases, US sales remain high as it suits that market better, plus it is built in Alabama.

My E class hybrid saloon with the same engine/electric drivetrain also suffers from the added weight, especially in comfort mode. In any bend you are always aware of the mass behind you, and the air suspension struggles to cope with bumps. It's only really at home on smooth motorways. The rear tyres also cost a small fortune and don't last long. I recently drove a non plug in hybrid E class and it was much better, even without air suspension. Having said that , if you stick my hybrid in sport+ it transforms the whole car and the engine really does sound good for a four cylinder.

when driven in petrol only mode during the test, does it charge while driving or is the petrol burned for "range only"? because if it charges, the range should reflect the additional charge too.
@kavikumar1008
@kavikumar1008 3 ай бұрын
you cant drive it in "petrol only" mode.. unless you use sport which then uses lower gears and the car is fueling more to respond a lot quicker which means it sucks fuel. When the battery does run dry, the car runs in hyrbid (like prius) where the electric motor kicks in a slow rolling speeds and then the petrol kicks. it does charge the battery enough to roll around in "hybrid" at town driving but if you cruise on the motorway then it does charge the battery. Not sure about the gle but my c350e managed around 30-40mpg on a decent trip.

BMW has some advantages over Mercedes with having features such as Digital Key, the available high-end Bowers & Wilkins audio system and a special cornering lamp in each LED headlamp housing. You can get a fully loaded M60i with a V8 for an equally equipped AMG GLE 53 with less power. Both are very nice and Mercedes has some cool features over the BMW as well. I think the GLE 53 needs more power but apparently Mercedes just announced a hybrid AMG GLE 53 that will be at dealers at the end of 2025. Lol

Not using cars fast charging facility if you have one on longer trips is madness to me, as it is fast enough to make actual difference even on coffee breaks. Have Volvo V60 and XC90, both T8 or plug-in hybrids, and it's quite frustrating when half an hour gives you only something like 6km of range. Otherwise like them a lot.

Former owner of 2 X5s and most recently a Cayenne, I test drove all of the latest SUVs in the segment back to back and ended up buying my first Mercedes - the AMG GLE 53. For me, it was the best blend of looks, performance, and quality for the price. The interior is much nicer than the new X5, it has more options, and it was less than a new Cayenne with the same performance. I was actually prepared to hate it, but I knew as soon as I drove it that it made sense for me. The turbo 6 with mild hybrid tech is also great for gas mileage!

I’ve driven a 53 and an X5 M60i many times, and I also like the GLE. The steering and handling is way better in the AMG, and it sounds better, making it more fun to drive. The interior is better like you said, and it’s way more spacious in the second row.

@@heinman6250 agree. I was SHOCKED at the leg room in the back. More than in the X5 or in my Cayenne. The AMG exhaust is very nice - probably the best sound you can get from a 6 cyl. Maybe not quite as sharp in the steering as the Porsche but better than the X5. I was honestly very shocked. I had looked at non AMG GLE models in 2018 and wasn’t impressed. This time, comparing X5 4.0 and 5.0 with the Cayenne Platinum and AMG 53 GLE, I really like the Mercedes best. And the MB UX and interior screens are fantastic!

Let me see nothing much has changed it’s still a modern Mercedes which means it will fall apart & become an endless money pit after about 3-5 years. At least here in Australia. Gone are the days when Mercedes Benz actually stood for quality and engineering like no other cars. Quality has taken a quite a big hit. They are just like any other car these days cutting costs.

You are on point. Plus you can get so much more going with Asian SUVs. They are much cheaper and much much more reliable than this. We got 22 Pathfinder Platinum. $30k cheaper than 2.4L turbo model. Plus it comes with 3rd row seat, reclining captain middle chairs, reliable vq35 V6, ZF9 tranny, 6k lbs towing and most importantly no junky air suspension. Super comfortable on straight and going thru mountains.

They do have different interior trim options, at least here in the US, including wood, that's the 400e so I'm sure that's a base model with the amg appearance package, and you can upgrade to Nappa leather on all trims here in the US. Considering the 450e myself, a friend has one it seems MB did a very conservative estimate on the ev only range they average 15 miles more ev range than the estimated range, they charge 3 times a week and run it in hybrid mode on weekends when they go to their cabin in the woods.
