2020 MercedesBenz GLE - Review & Road Test
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Just another luxury SUV? Not so much with the GLE, the midsize two- or optional three-row crossover from the lovely folks at Mercedes-Benz. Chock full of technology like their MBUX connectivity system and super cool on-road tech like sensors that read the road, highly customizable suspension settings and a feature that makes the entire car bounce so you can get unstuck from sand, the GLE isn't just an average luxury mall crawler. Micah Muzio's got even more to say about it, too.

What did you guys think about our one-take opening shot?
Bad ass editing! In other words, great job.
It was wonderful but then you did it over and over and over in about the 9th time you circled the car I was getting dizzy. Otherwise, it clearly look like effort was put into this review and it was one of the best I've seen in years.
Quite luxurious!
Love it.
@@CalvinHikes I took a Dramamine, and then I was fine. :o)
Am I the only person who watches KBB’s videos despite the fact that I already know most of these cars I would never buy? 🤣
Walker Kirchman I watch these videos because Micah makes them so entertaining! I love his style, narration and his music!
You're not alone my friend, lol
Actually I wanna get this one for some reason and your cute sorry it had to be known and I also subbed message me pslsllsls
Same!
I just enjoy Micah and the squirrels
It’s 2020 the safety features should be standard and all car brands! Yes especially you ! Come on Mercedes!
Raffi C exactly!!
Another home run, Micah! You make your videos so entertaining, with great narration and music! Thank you so much 😊
Mitchell Barnow And thank you for watching!!
Micah Muzio You are so welcome, Micah!
You call that Clown 🤡 Micah entertaining ? 😂😂😂 You are very easily entertained ! Like a little kid ! Real Men find this Punk Very Annoying !
The Germans sure love a laundry list of expensive options... Micah nailed it with the comment for some of the active safety features not being standard. Never miss the chance to tack something on as an option. I know someone who forgot to check the box in a build that included the backup camera, but the sensors were an overlooked add on. It wouldn’t be luxury if it wasn’t expensive and exclusive.
There may be some who price is a non factor and they want to just load it up and show their “luxury” bravado I’m not one of them. It’s refreshing to see companies like Tesla who don’t have a multitude of options and keep things simple.
Howdy, great review as always! Micha is one of the best car reviewers!😸😻😸
I click on KBB videos and wait about 8 seconds. If I hear Micah's voice, I'm elated and I keep watching.
I’m loving it thanks for making this review become possible Mercedes is really making some good stuff I think
Which kind of luxury car doesn't provide some form auto-pilot ?
-
Mercedez
Vijayanand Phad it’s another package for the active distance distantronic and adaptive cruise control, for LIKE 2.5 GRAND AS IF THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH OPTIONS
I am sorry to hear that you feel Mercedes is not a luxury car. SMH LOL
They have to pay for their overhead, sponsorships galore, advertising budget, fancy lounge areas so their clientele feel very VIP.
Lol. Thanks for the review. Y'all had fun shooting this one.
Beautiful vehicle don’t get me wrong. However I feel that luxury auto makers are starting to realize that the non luxury brands are actually becoming... well... luxurious. They are offering standard features right out the door that have to be included in some $1500.00 optional package on a vehicle already starting north of 60 grand. Therefore they turn to gimmicks, such and the oversized gauge and infotainment screens, the air hydraulic system, built in air fresheners etc. Not just knocking Mercedes, BMW has turned to the same gimmicks with their gesture controls and the huge digital key fob that does the same thing as a BMW app on your phone.
I would recommend to any smart shopper to first check out a loaded Kia Telluride, GMC Yukon Denali or Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. From there maybe the Cadillac XT5 or XT6.
For my money I’d slip the difference and go with a decently equipped Lincoln Aviator.
Yukon’s have always been gorgeous
Just a heads up the white seats will be blue after a week of wearing jeans... not a smart Choice
Very bourgeois, Micah. Benz is like the German premium version of Buick... a boomer mobile. 🧓👵
It looks nice. The second row seats are a bit disappointing, and the wheels look tame for being "AMG". The lack of standarr magic cruise and lane keeping is odd as well.
Ummm 80K without adaptive cruise control? The new 2020 Toyota Corolla has this. Yeah ok, next.
Did it have the pretentious lighted front grill star package?
It's only pretentious if you can't afford it.
The lighted M-B Star is available for an extra $500 ;)
They should sell a MB Star logo like the bat signal so at night you can announce your singular presence to everyone around as you project the logo to the heavens.
Not in the market for a new Merc nor any car for that matter. Just came for the entertainment that is Micah Muzio. Lol
Im not boujee, YOURE BOUJEE
We just got our 2020 GLE and love it. Love it in blue with white seats. So much customization and technology. Mercedes has the best quality. Love the design as well and those handles. Reminds me of the Porsche Cayanne since they also have similar handle design.
3:34 22,245 in options..... not in my life time.
RyanBlockb5 ditto, I can’t even make up my mind to drop the coin for an entire Ranger or F-150 at that price.
Then watch a ford fiesta review
@@vedanttaneja4428 good suggestions the Fiesta is probably under 20,000 with some options. I can use the remaining 2,000 on monthly repair bills. The car is so good they no longer make it.
RyanBlockb5 lmfaooo y'all made my day.
Vedant Taneja lmfaooo
Like always Nice review. Thanks.
FYI: 4,696 to 4,991 lbs
It says you came from money, but you're not too bright with money.
...just because you can’t afford something doesn’t mean it’s “not smart” to buy for someone who can.
But that interior in the old GLE, there you go!
Kim Jong-un, please don’t bomb U.S. I live here and study here.
Dr. Q haha i changed my name to my real name now so my accounts don’t call me Kim 😭 😭
You really are coming hehe!
80,000k mercadies without adaptive cruise control or lane keep assist
What about the Lincoln Aviator? Fully loaded for about $75K.
What did you do to the voice over?
I don't know why both Mercedes and BMW are acting like the use of phrases like that is new. My 2016 Lexus IS, which uses ancient infotainment, allows me to say things like "I'm hot" and "I'm cold" to adjust climate as well.
Yeah, but Mercedes does it better than your car.
@@ClaireYunFarronXIII 😏
Villlaaaar!
Now that I like and would buy. I ain't no Lincoln Airiator/lariat or whatever-but this is not that at all.
77 is like summer
Nice 👍
This guy is fun to watch! Lol
That’s a very laggy screen for a vehicle this expensive
Really informative video; but, the host is really obnoxious and I hate ADS during videos. SO I STOPPED THIS VIDEO AT THE FIRST AD. But it was really the obnoxious host that made me want to not see anymore!!!
I’ll wait for new 2021/22 Lexus RX and save more money
the RX will still be a FWD based vehicle and probably won’t have the tech of this Mercedes.
Where's my money?..... hahahahahahaha
Cars these days are worth more than 2 kidneys we have.
I think stuff gets cheaper with more competition.
But here, as years goes by, prices increase.. this should not be true for cars.
Hence I'll stick with my car and not buy a new one. NEVER
Hey KBB. Seriously, find yourself a new auto reviewer for this channel. This guy is a complete goof. No one seriously considering a vehicle like this will take his opinion with value
Genesis GV80 will become the leader in this class
Sounds like a rip off.
All I see is bulldog in the face of this vehicle.
This reviewer wastes too much time trying to be funny. He's not funny AT ALL. Also, the dizzying camera movement is very annoying. Next time, don't try to be the star and let the car be the main focal point.
Looks like a melted blob
Where is my money 😂😂😂😂🤑🤑🤑🤑
1st
Can you please hire an adult to do your reviews!?
Damn the cost of the options alone is the same for a regular base car price lol
Sooooo...... What's actually standard on this vehicle because it seems like Mercedes nickles and dimes you for everything.
That’s the German luxury angle they all do it to a degree MB, Audi, BMW and Porsche if it’s expensive it’s luxurious. The buyer’s of these want to feel like they’re fully customizing their vehicle, Porsche lets you detail stitching and very minute details all for a price premium.
"or if you just want to make a scene at the elementary school pickup line" LOL You're too much! This has got to be one of your best reviews. Not only is it informative, but as usual, quite enjoyable to watch.
They’ve completely lost their minds charging 80plus k for that thing.
Same price as the competition. Can't afford it? These aren't the cars for you. Go buy a less costly one. Simple.
Lightning Farron oh I can pay for it in cash if I wanted too that’s not the issue. I just isn’t worth it. Tell me it doesn’t look like an Acura MDX from the rear.
The Truth Expensive garbage is still garbage.
A fool and their money are easily parted. Just because someone is loaded doesn’t mean they’re going to just waste it on this..
this is craft. thank you, Micah for everything that you are and everything that you do
Roland So kind of you to say. Thanks!!
Awesome one-take. But Micah, please, never ever kick a door fully open ever again 🙏
Damn Mercedes charges for everything
Will it charge me every time I crack my window for FRESH AIR ????
$2200 for the option of rolling down the window while the vehicle is on the move man 😂😂😂
Why would you want fresh air when you can pay Mercedes to blow perfumed air into the cabin via their collection of scents?
😂😁 🤣👌👍✌
The German luxury brands are all somewhat guilty. Audi which is slightly lower in the food chain than BMW and MB tends to include more, while Porsche is the worst
@@dailyrant4068 porsche🤦
Micah makes a great point at 5:01. One thing that has always amused me to say the least about German luxury brands, is how they nickel and dime you for things that should be basic features for a luxury vehicle . I’ll never forget my shock a few years ago when I discovered that rear a/c controls were an option on a Mercedes GL/GLS. Wow. Mind you this is a standard feature on Expedition and Tahoe.
@Daniel Hernandez Premium isn't that pricey, that's the only thing i put for my car and it has helped with keeping the engine at optimal performance. Now i'm at 70k miles and still putting Premium.
No adaptive cruise control for that much $$$ ? That’s a deal breaker.
Micah. Excellent review.
If you d rather express your luxurious in your house; there are cheaper options.. Ha! Or the Tall Brit Relentlessly asking for his money.. Double Ha. If your ever Buy a GLE ; any mercedes for that matter make sure you owe no one money...
They ll be relentless imagining you swim in money Even if its the cheaper 350... Its a lesson i learnt when my best friend bought his Merc; I magically remembered that $ 200 from 1995...
The Lincoln aviator Grand Touring is more powerful and fuel efficient. Would like to see a showdown between this and the aviator.
Who buy Lincoln?? I heard Lincoln's resell value is one of worst.
Umhahaha who buys these? Lease it is
Micah is on point with the music for this video!
Sir Friendzone I always love when people notice my music. Thanks is for the comment!
One of the best reviews in some time - Big Thanks!!!
I always used to look down on Mercedes and thought people who buy the entry class vehicles did as a fashion statement. I switched from a Infiniti into a Mercedes and then attention to detail and safety and quality of everything and just the enginerring and desgine is paramount. I don't think I would call my Mercedes A Fast car or super handling sports car. But a Well built quality vehicle that I found to be very reliable safe offering a comfort luxury with adequate performance and handling. I don't think it excels in one thing but it's an all around well built car.
That's insane. $84 grand and no driver assist package? 🤦the 2018 camry XSE has that, but obviously lacks the luxury of a merc
Luxury is a badge and having a vehicle so expensive and exclusive you don’t see everyone driving it. The customers who buy this want everyone around to know they’re special.
He looks very honest and fun to be around. Love his reviews, he makes it very pleasant.
He's fun to be around ? You must be a Geek just like him !
Every time I see a demo of MBUX it looks infuriating to use. I’m certain I would accidentally touch those steering wheel control pads... All. The. Time.
Daniel C It’s horrifyingly bad
Nick Harbachewski do you have personal experience? I’d be interested to hear about it.
Rear seats don’t recline it’s slide back ..
big lose ..
Cheaper brand mid size SUV’s had this feature.
Even hyundai ... rear seats recline all the way back ..it’s so comfortable
Excellent work on that one take exterior tour!!
Vivek Pavel Not gonna lie. It was tricky to coordinate. 😄
Micah Muzio nothing is impossible for you guys. Great work though.
I like KBB videos and I have a car, but i fear we will look back on gushing luxury SUV videos like this someday as an example of how the climate ended up ruined.
Can someone please explain to me why luxury brands insist on using some device like a touch pad or rotary knob to control the screen instead of just touching the screen? I’d rather have another storage space or cup holder in place of these things.
Beautiful interior, but just trying to get over the “egg” shaped rear half of the exterior.
Guess I just prefer the more upright look of the XC90, X5 and Aviator
I sat in this last week. Beautiful car ..but the add on's put the price through the roof. And to get some ad on's ..you are forced to buy others.
so im paying for the car, and im paying for everything that comes with it including seat, body, audio etc. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes.
Hats-off to Mercedes for making a proper RWD SUV.
The GLE 450 is spot on. Did he mention that it has Warp Drive meaning Sport selection.
The GLE AMG 450 has Trans Warp drive if you want to actually fly down the freeway.
You can't beat the quality.
Wow, was there anything really bad about this car? Other than the steep price as-tested and the brutal depreciation that MBZs suffer? Makes me almost interested in buying one...
Mazda xc 5
Honda CRV
Toyota RAV 4
Nissan Rogue
Jeep compass
Anyone please suggest which one among the above mentioned will be the top best SUV to buy?
So what did you end up buying? I am also split between cx5, CRV and Rav4.
I'm surprised Mercedes offers windows as and seats as standards equipment. The greed is disgusting.
No one is forcing you to but it
I went on Mercedes' website... and went with the AMG43 edition... still pricey at $75k when I customized it. Loaded like Micah's $84k... it's gotta be near $93k+.
The guy on here reminds me of the kids who are overdosed on Adderal and actually think they are funny. Please find some new people. We don't need immature children talking about about $70,000 cars.
3:15 does that mean the car pumps high levels of ozone into the cabin? Can’t be good for long road trips.
Gv80
How can the Burmester system be so good if its so damn cheap? The B&O system on the XC90 is far more expensive. Is it really a bargain or do you get what you pay for here?
I've love to see you review the 2020 GLS - Review & Road Test!
So I love this guys style when reviewing a kia or something, but for this car I expect the review to have a little more class, like wear a suit or something
Why are the reviews always so goofy!? I feel they always try too hard to be funny, but It’s just awkward.
GV80 looks better.
Built quality is very poor. Used lot of cheap components.. never buy this
It looks more luxurious inside than the Bentley
I love the new GLE so high tec and great quality
The seat is literally under the wheel. I am curious to know what metrics you use in evaluating and scoring SUVs. I went to buy a Mercedes GLE and discovered I could not even into into the driver's seat. It's very small and cramped. I even tried the larger GLS and could not fit in either. The legroom for their SUVs is 40 inches, some even 39 inches.
This is ridiculous for an SUV and cannot understand why they are ranked #1 in almost all categories.. They might be built for Europeans but the average American will fit fit in the driver seat.
American SUVs on the other hand have legroom starting at 43.5 all the way to 46. It might not seem like much difference but when you are above 6'3, as most Americans are, it does.
Average adult American male is 5' 9". Not that MB should make a seat that is so limited ...
9:30 do the Humpty Hump! 😆
Love to out-maneuver all these goofy overpriced SUVs in my trusty ol’ E550.
Dude, stop kicking the door open with your cheap sneakers!
Absolutely stunning vehicle
Damn, I missed your hilarious reviews so much :D. Fantastic job, Micah
Love the music and the reviews Micah! I always look forward to the new videos!
84,000 ?? That’s crazy
Got ours for 66k without going overboard.
22,245 in options!
Saad Qureshi great 👍
@@saadqureshi7127 from where?
Any car without ACC is NOT luxury in my book. It’s an absolute must for me in this Atlanta traffic. BTW my Honda has it.
Honda is far from luxury.
@@saadqureshi7127 Well from a more objective standpoint.
Honda has FAR better convienence features listed as standard equipment .
Just sayin' 💁
Saad Qureshi that was my point smh
Nikki De La Cruz exactly you can get all the features like lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, brake assist, heated seats, etc you name it for a muchhhhh cheaper price. The only difference really is the quality and a the luxury suv just looks better in some ways. I mean the Kia telluride looks and feels incredible, and Kia isn’t even a luxury brand. And for the price, pfft....I would totally get it over a Mercedes or bmw.
Still driving my 2008 Highlander, just here for Micah
Cadillac can't be serious about the XT6 taking on the GLE. The interior for one is years above the XT6.
The XT6 lacks in opt engines
Interior fit and finished, small display screen 8", no wireless charge, loose fit interior finishes as he pointed out in the referenced url.
ruclips.net/video/jBGeD-PEIe4/видео.html
Why on earth would they make the rear seats not recline far and seat not able to move back ..
Your in the backseat feeling like your in a 2 door Honda Civic
The 450 is the one to get.... but man they put it a whole ladder full of rungs above the 350 in terms of price... holy shit!
