I have a 2012 ML350 which is basically the same car with the V-6. Absolutely love the car, in fact the best car I have ever owned that now has 82K miles w/o any issues. If you want to stay away from the 4-banger w/mild hybrid buy a used one ie 2018 with low miles at half the price. It has the 6 cyl and I get around 25 mph on the freeway and 21 around town with the same engine. Its not that I am against the "mild hybrid" in fact we just bought a mild hybrid '23 GLC300 for my wife. The interior beats any other smaller lux SUV. Btw I also have a '07 C Class sedan and NONE of the MB's have given us any issues.

When I see entry level GLEs in US support augmented reality navigation or gesture control but my so called "fully loaded" GLE doesn't have those features I feel I got scammed by MB. Especially considering here we pay much more than US customers for the same car.

I got the plug-in hybrid and your analysis on power is not right for that variant. The torque provided by the motor at lower speeds relieves the need for more engine displacement. There is plenty of power and torque. It's as power ful on the start-up and through teh power curve as my 06 E350 was. The car is an absolute joy to drive and I think you captured that. No way the X5 can match it, nor can the Volvo XC90, and CERTAINLY not the Infinity, Genesis, or Audi Q5. I did not drive the Lexus equivalent (RX I think) because it it so bleedingly ugly that I would not sit in it. A couple of details: POSITIVE: unbelievable turning radius, NEGATIVE: the plug-in is sorely lacking in storage. If you are the type to carry a set of jumper cables, there is NO place to put them. NEGATIVE (in my opinion): While they did lose the joystick, they're still trying to make that track pad work and it doesn't. I SO SO SO want the area is occupies for a bucket for snacks. There is NO place to put down a sandwich if you are eating on the go. POSITIVE: The voice command system ROCKS for audio and navigation, but (NEGATIVE) it fails big time in controlling driving features and settings. NEGATIVE: The hands-free tailgate feature (foot kick motion) works about half the time. You often stand there like an idiot kicking your foot like a Rockette dancer. Negative: There are places (though not many) where the key may not be detected, including the drivers floor where you might put your purse because THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE TO PUT IT. Tips: I did not get the air suspension system and I strongly doubt it is needed because of the weight of the battery. The drive is stellar without it, anyway and mechanics will tell you it's going to be trouble down the line (even the Mercedes mechanic agreed).

Have had a 2024 GLE 450 for about three months, and have had major a/c and minor electronics problems that the dealer can't seem to fix. The owner's manual is a nightmare, and there are a lot of surprise warning lights and tones that go unexplained. Mercedes is one of the lowest rated automobile brands for reliability, according to readers of Consumer Reports, and mine is no exception. I had a 2004 ML 350 that was problem-free for many years and based my purchase experience on that vehicle. My bad! Probably going to sell it and get a Porsche Macan. Yes, the Merc is very quiet and has a smooth ride, and I get decent mileage for such a large vehicle, but when the SUV factory in Alabama was built, the first ML320s that were produced there were called "Alabama Trash Cans." I think that moniker was deserved.

The cars are so expensive and you wonder what makes them so expensive! Mostly Robots makes them just like a printer printing text and care makers they profit more than 80% in every care they make! They make the basic models so ugly that the buyers have to add more and more options and those options are really more expensive!
