Thank you so much. This is the first review of the GLE SUV that I liked. All the other reviews compare it to other cars like the BMW X5 while this one focuses on the actual car. I love the GLE SUV and it is the best mid sized SUV in my opinion. Thank you!
Thank you for watching and for the kind words! We like the GLE too, as you can tell! :)
DA
This is literally my exact dream car, literally every single option I want
Wow,,futuristic review.. the one and only GLE Suv that I've loved. kudos. i also love the intelligent headlights technology.
Hey.I'm willing to break down my 2015 mercedes Benz Gle250 into parts.
Anyone here interested in getting any part of it.
Let's do bussiness.
My 2017 GLC 300 makes me disappointed on 360' camera ( when sunshine on one side the another side in shadow will be dark black) & the garage door opener is very weak, I have to buy a portable one to open the garage door. Did the GLE350 have the same problem ?
great job I just bought it,nice video
My dream car! 😍😍😍
Haha I have this car
Did you get it
@@jenniferdownard8259 Not this version. I got the 2020 redesigned version
Very very nice information keep up 👍
Is this the first year of 2017 the cooling and heated cup holders come out for Merc ?
Trying to fall in love with our Newley purchased 2017 GLE 350 4Matic.
It is a little more roomier than the 2013 GLK we just traded in on it, but the GLK handled the road better.
I hear 2013 models had a "special suspension" for that year only and to hold onto it as long as possible.
I think all the different drive modes subtract from what felt more like direct drive. I mean I could drive a straight line
further in the 2013 GLK with 130K miles on it, and felt more in control than the newer GLE with 100K less miles on it.
I doubt one would notice just to drive the GLE. It does drive very nice.
My only other qualm with the GLE (same engine and transmission, torque, and HP I had) is the gas pedal responsiveness
from 0-10 mph is old fart. Not impressed in the least. Both hold a hill in cruise control without having to downshift in our area
maintaining speed impressively, where my pick up has to downshift, and other cars lose speed around you on these hills, where
the GLE just grins and "trucks on".
Dave, you may've caught this since shooting this video, but you mentioned with the cruise ctrl. that it changed in 5mph increments.
You can change it in 1mph increments with lighter presses on that lever. Press harder, almost a soft 2 stop like position, and 5mph changes.
It will brake automatically to drop 5mph with a full push downwards on the lever. Price all the way down 3 times = 15 mph decrease and so on;)
Your video was fun and entertaining, yet informative. Thanks!
bonsaiguy65 I just totaled my 2013 GLK 350 on Saturday and I’m gonna miss that car so much. I loved it. Some guy failed to yield and I lost my car in the blink of an eye. Looking into the GLE.
@@yeseniapacheco1164 Oh noooo! Sorry you lost your car but I hope you're alright ;) Don't get me wrong we really like the 2017 GLE and had the absolutely BEST dealership you could ask for from internet inquiry to car REVEAL when we took ownership. None better than Germain Mercedes of Easton in Columbus, Oh. No matter what you go with, they'll fix you up and work with you until you're satisfied and after the sale as well. Best off luck!
Very good review of what is in the car and how to use the functions available. TY.
Thank you very much, this has been very useful tutorial
This is very well equipped
The back is amazing 🤩
Excellent review
Very nice
I have the same car, bought it used. Noticed this doesn’t have the Amg steering wheel. Mine doesn’t have the Amg steering wheel either. Does anyone know why that would be?
Im so happy with the ML550. I opted without the air suspension and the ride is perfection.
Air ride is the most comfortable however very expensive
wow. You did a great job
I like the ride and quiet cabin of the Lexus 350 how does this SUV compared to it? Great review keep it up!
Check out the video at 17:00. At this point Dave opens the sunroof and you can really get a feel of the quiet cabin. Even with the sunroof open!
shes beautiful!
Is this exact same vehicle still available?
Beautiful SUV. Just purchased one. Wished I knew about those seats. Can I upgrade my seats?
How does it drive mate ? Is it comfy and any big issues ?
I Own this car. Black on Black. I don't have a lot of the upgrades...mainly the massage seating. But I do have the seat warmers and all the extras. I would like to know more about how to use the wifi...
can the call i work in other countries
I love it!!!!!
Good job!! Buy it!!
I'm willing to break down my 2015 mercedes Benz Gle250 into parts.

i actually want to the if the sun roof haves a cover from the inside? cause the sun bothers too much if it doesnt haves a cover 🚨
There is an actual shade that comes over the sun roof. We tend to not use those for video lighting reasons.
“You got the air vent here with some air or something coming out. We got this nice seat here with some material on it.”
Hi ! Which packageis this exactly ? The seats are ventilated as well ? And can i buy that package in Canada too ?? Thanks

I love Mercedes Benz products from my childhood days but this has bought my love for other Mercedes, I wish I could be gifted this car I can't even afford the footmatch 🤣🤣🤣
GOD bless me, this Mercedes Benz gle 350 4 Matic must be my first ride
David, I did not see you extending or retracting moon roof covers. Does not GLE 350 have the covers for the moon roofs? Without them, I wouldn't not want to entertain buying one for Las Vegas Sun.
Wyatt Kwon yeah it does
Wyatt Kwon well I bought this car but I must say it's extremely important to get your own customizations on this car since it's base model doesn't have much to offer

@@MelissaOliviaGrenffe lol for what? They’re the most Reliable cars I’ve ever owned
Ow! so tell me more about the car.
@@MelissaOliviaGrenffe one year of owning, using and abusing it. Not a problem with it! Absolutely indestructible just like it’s older brother W163 which i own both actually
@@bekabeka71 Okay are you on facebook
LOL that 'door' to access the luggage area is a *Snow Skis Door.* In the good Olde days, they use to include a built-in bag so you don't get melting water dripping on your seats. The GLE is a decent midsized SUV, last one we had they called them the 'ML Class' and for some reason Mercedes has all their cars practically looking the same, especially the sedans...now add blurring nomenclature.
_edit we're torn between the MB GLE and Audi Q7, and still debating. The Audi has better value..._
Snow ski door! Awesome. Thanks for the info.
Although it is used for snow ski storage, you highlighted a another utility for the door. On long trips, if i have things are storage in a creative locations, I would use the door to retrieve what I need instead of pulling the car over. Of course a passenger will do that, not the driver. Thanks for a new idea.
What did you end up getting and are you happy with it?
It’s called a “ski pass-through” to put long skis in the car, not a door a to reach into the trunk lol

Stephen Ng The maximum speed for a GLE 350d 4Matic is 225 kph or 140 mph.
@@frane2778 my gle400 is 160
God of cars. Think this is designed by benz chairman 💺
l really mostly like Mercedes coupe
23:16 creepy close
So the first thing I see when your video starts is a white GM SUV at a Mercedes dealership, really!
Obviously a customer trading in their vehicle. ;)
lol
looks like u see this car 4 ther 1st time dude..
Thanks for watching, Eni! Yes, this is our David's first time seeing this vehicle. That is the point of the First Gear series, watching our host explore the vehicle and discovering the features like a customer at a dealership.
Looks like he sees Any car for the first time. He's a nice guy, nevertheless. :)
I need that exact brown leather wooden steering wheel. If you have or can sell me THIS EXACT WHEEL please reply and dm and whatever to let me know!! I will pay you STUPID MONEY to get a burl walnut wooden brown wheel for this 2015-2018 model year!! STUPID MONEY COME TO ME WITH THIS WHEEL!!! ❤😂
He's annoyingly touchy feely, won't have him anywhere near my cars!
He has to be after all he is reviewing it
you guys forgot the 3rd row seat!!!!!!!!!
Ahmad Kakaji there is no third row seat
Ahmad Kakaji unlike other cars in this rank (BMW X5 and Q7) the GLE does not have a third row option. If you want it you need the GLS.
Frane k thank u
read more about it and then make a review,,,,,
Again, thanks for watching. Our "First Gear" series is a review from a customer's perspective. If you're interested in a sales or tech review, check out our "Smail Ride Along" playlist for videos from our sales team. THANKS!!
My friend, are you stoned?
Camera work sucks!
Sharad Rai it's great you poor third world country idiot
is the world running out of people that knows shit about cars. first the honda jason guy now this. didnt realize it could get worse than honda jason.
deez nughtz Did you not hear him say “I know cars as much as an average person”
Mercedes is so cheap now. it's like driving a Chrysler
Stanging 84 how so?
I respectfully and totally disagree! You must be a millionaire. To me and all my peers whom are affluent income income earners, the car is still an expensive. Now if you want to say that Cadillac brand charges far more for much lesser quality on options and materials, I would say that would be true.
Wyatt Kwon I just got a 2017 cts and I love it way more than my amg c63
See that front grille? Pretty but hit anything at 3-5 mph and you will replace every thing!!! Including headlights and hood!!!
The guy doing this review was painful to watch. Makes me not even want the car
Car is nice, but hate new commercial. interracial couple always white woman with another race. this time an Asian. Come on Mercedes , get with the program already , racist commercial. Nice car gle 350
Susan, it's called Target Marketing, racism has noting to do with commercial.
