I realize the GLE is no lightweight, but still a little surprised as to how the acceleration rate really trails off beyond 200 kmh considering how much power and torque this engine has.
My GLE450 does 5,3-5,4 s 0-100 km/h, with Pirelli Zero tires, if that counts. After simple ECU remap (600$) it improved to 4,7-4.8 s (more then I need in reality), what revealed a true potential of this engine, without increase of fuel consumption when driven moderately. It is actually quicker on straight line up to 180 km/h than my 2012 BMW 135 with chip tuning, which I consider as a true (non-exotic) sport car since a time of its release.
@@DeathhAngel1 There are many variables, a driver, tires, fuel, load. In apple to apple drag they are probably very close. It is easily tunable to its native full power of 430-450 HP what makes it very quick car (tires with good grip certainly help, as well). This engine is stunning.
@Peter King i was joking they are not slow especially since they were kinda keeping up with me being so much heavier. I just felt the need to talk trash because the person came flying up on my arse going at least 80mph in a 45 then swerved to the next lane and cut me off then we got a red together and the race ensued.
Why is the GLE’s optional Towing Package - which includes an electrically folding tow bar and steering assistance to help you reverse with a trailer attached - only available on 450 petrol cars? (in the UK at least) Surely it should be available on the diesel versions of the GLE as well?
z33_SA the new X5 40i (the base engine on the X5) has been tested by car and driver at 4.8 secs 0-60. So yes the new X5 would smoke this. Just wish I had the new one lol.
Jedna Budala This has no launch control he just hit brake and gas and if he does that for too long he goes up to 1 km/h and then the 0-100/200 time is not accurate
I'm just curious about his REAL speed. Dragy says 247 when speedometer says 251. So, did he got 250 km/h for real or it's just inaccuracy of speedometer? P.S. I'd like GLE so much. Is there a driving video?
@@martinskuthan7557 yeah. When I'm driving my car at 170 km/h (gps-based), speedometer shows 180 km/h. Now I think I should trust to GPS speedometer more.

It's probably more down to air resistance rather than weight.
But it's better in the v8 63
Fire.
The best SUV on the market

Slow, i put the gap sauce on one of these today in my 2007 Ls460 that does 0-60 in 5.4 yet it i was a bus length ahead :/

Sounds like a diesel from outside
Thank gpf
No
No
I drove once in Malaysia highway . Got lil scarry what a superb car... Too powerful
Thanks for including the full instrument display in the video!
GLE but only 53 AMG.Sound like heaven
I love the AMG Packages on these
That brick moves! 💨
Eagerly awaiting the GLE AMG 63 S numbers.
Someone watch electric dialog inverted? "Charging" in full throttle and "powering" in deceleration? XD
0-100 in 5.7 seconds is fast for an SUV. faster then some sportscars
Back in 2001, yes. Today this gets smoked by the equivalent X5.
@@mackdaddy4222 5.5 seconds for the x5 is good but i dont like bmw
z33_SA the new X5 40i (the base engine on the X5) has been tested by car and driver at 4.8 secs 0-60. So yes the new X5 would smoke this. Just wish I had the new one lol.
@@mattX5 no it woulda the x5 40i is same fast like this gle 450 btw x5 also haves weak engines like this gle
It’s very potent
Does the GLE have Launch Control?
Nope
Damn this channel is great
This dude has the best job in the world, i swear.
Why was EQ on charge when accelerating? Or should it be the other way around idk seems weird to me
Big Smoke it’s not charging but it’s show the car offer some ev while you are acceleration i guess
jenGD3 i think so too but they mixed up the placement of charging and power
The hybrid system was in Charging Mode, so the combustion engine gives power in order to charge the 30kWh battery!
So this GLE 450 could be faster..
Elijah Meier i wonder why it does not automatically switch modes/stops charging when you floor it
prob the system showed it backwards
Why is your car not beeping after 120kmph ?
Super video👍
Fake sound from speakers....
Bla bla bla
Tristan
It has an i6 so it should sound good
Tristan Car manufactures don’t do that anymore. (Except Audis and some diesel car)
LKA BMW does that ._.
Including Diesels🤦🏻
Sound?
where is the full review of this guys
I have 18 gle400, a tuned one, does the same speeds,
Why u didnt go with more rpm on start ?
Jedna Budala This has no launch control he just hit brake and gas and if he does that for too long he goes up to 1 km/h and then the 0-100/200 time is not accurate
It looks like Hyundai from the back.
Elder Jiang because Hyundai copy’s 😂🤐
Sweet one
Top speed of the new RS6?
Miguel Dias wait! just wait!
188+ mph with unlock
about 305kmh
Cant read numbers
Nice car
Wow super 🇩🇿🇫🇷🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
0-200 113.68s ?!
yassine khaili is here
Please review amg e63s estate.
Please X5 Xdrive40i !
Fake pipes?
does anyone hear obtrusive wind noise past 200kph? I'm wearing earphone.
The window is open or his car is defective, coz our Gle 63 doesn’t make such sounds even past 300
Sounds like a whole lot of nothing
BMW X3 30d pls
Fake exhaust pipes....
👍
I don’t like this back

Every speedometer say bit more than car is actually going

@@moon.trance It has its own purpose.
Wtf 19 sec lol never again over 9sec. No thx
Sounds like a BMW M4 Competition
hoho,i have an idea)
Please, Mercedes GLA 45 AMG
First
Silent
Weird noises
It’s really really ugly
