Personally I would take the Lexus because it's unique and it definitely turns heads in certain paint schemes.
It’s utterly boring
Plus it’s more reliable, cheaper to buy, and cheaper to operate.
@@thebagnechannel3183 You have the reliability data for the new Land Cruiser?
@@MercOne I have Consumer Reports reliability data for the brand, and it has rated at the top for decades.
...............What is REALLY boring!!!! is waiting in the GLE service department hit with $650,00 oil changes & watching your money ooooze out of your wallet trying to keep up with the FreaK'n jone's @@MaticTheProto
Lexus stepped up here
still can't believe I own a GLE and this channel actually really helped me to go with one.
Honestly I never thought I'd call myself an SUV kinda guy but that Lexus looks fantastic. ❤👍
I like the description of ‘plantedness’ you attached to your description of the GLE. It is true, it looks ‘planted’! While I think Mercedes Benz have lost the way somewhat in recent times, particularly with the plethora of multiple car types that has diluted and seriously damaged the brand, they are doing a better job than BMW who have some serious lemons in the current lineup, including the awful and brutal iX. Both could take a design lesson from Land Rover with their new sport!
The Lexus looks awesome. The GLE just looks boring and blobby. The G class looks a lot nicer than the GLE but then again I'm a big fan of boxy rigs.
The GX easily because it has a different unique look something that’s pretty exciting oh and it’s something that would be reliable and robust that will easily last 10+ years without falling apart can’t say the same for newer Mercedes cars tho
The GX looks like a shitty toy car
The gx is uglier. I’d get the gle since I can afford regular maintenance
@@ummmbye1228 question can you afford the constant repairs and time it’s going to be in the shop?
@@brettweltz8135There are no constant repairs. Sure it will be expensive to maintain (expensive parts), but Lexus parts ain't cheap either. If ease of maintenance and cheap parts were the first priority, both these vehicles would be out of the picture (we would be considering Sentras or Elantras ).
If I have the money, GLE63 AMG coupe any day over the Lexus GX.
The Mercedes appears like a dedicated on-road vehicle; the Lexus GX looks more off-road oriented. The GX 550 reminds me of the early 1990s Ford SUV Explored models.
Lexus GX all day! No competition! Even the Land Cruiser 250 is better than the GLE
Amazing explanation. Thanks for sharing this enlightening video!
Lexus styling is just too good
GX if you want a off road capable luxury 4x4. GLE if you want a luxury soft crossover that cushier. Both very nice.
I wanna see a Lexus FJ Cruiser. I would love to see what that would look like.
Cars like the Lexus is why i dislike the new Defender. The lexus is so cool and boxy, same with cars like the Suzuki Jimny. Yet they felt the need to make the defender so curved and soft.
i kind of wish the front of the GLE was a little more aggressive? like the headlights look almost too cute to be on a car like that especially with a frowning grill and the really good looking side view and the car looking planted from the back. Otherwise i really love it
I used to love Merc but their design philosophy has become a bit boring. Lexus is also similar with select models but my gosh, this GX is truly polarizing and it feels like they are going for the jugular's of competitive models including the JLR Defender, Ford Bronco and even the G-Wagon. I personally wouldn't know what to do with a GX since wouldn't be off-roading it but would be great to see if they push out an F-Sport variant with a slightly more "urban" feel to it.
GX looks amaaaaaazng. The Mercedes looks like a Buick.
Nah the GLE looks amaaaaaaaazing the Lexus looks shit, pure shit the GLE is amazing
GX all day.
The Lexus is much more exciting to look at. The Mercedes looks like every other Mercedes SUV.
Lexus has a Transformer's Decepticon design
Design review of the COMPLETE GL series please? The design has changed a bunch of times and watching your BMW video I think a lot of people would be interested. Could even include the most sold C series...
Funny that the video moderator failed to mention maintenance and reliability costs and differences! Also, studies have shown that physical buttons are safer and preferred by most drivers! Trying to navigate climate and other controls via a glass panel is dangerous as it forces one to take one's eyes off of the road more often!
The GLE rear end is borderline flawless
Infact everything about that GLE is flawless it’s one of the best looking SUVs on the road today
I wish they used the shifter from the 23 RX. The current one takes up too much space in the console area
The GLE is just astonishing.
Yep
The Mercedes GLA is the hot one you want to date
The Lexus is the one you want to marry

"The dash is in a cave"
"It's all the way up in the engine bay"
The previous generation of GLE could hold a candle if not take out this GX. This gen is a good car but needs to stick to competing with X5, XC90 and Cayenne.
hi, what's your take on the kia ev5 design both interior and exterior?
I think you compared oranges with aples . I think you should choose for comparation a Land Rover jnstead of the Merc.
Don't know about the safety rating about lexus. But Mercedes GLE has a good rated safety
Are you going to do any video about the new Audi Q8?
Good choice 🔥
The Lexus looks tougher while Mercedes looks like a womans car. Nothing wrong with a womans car, but Lexus takes the crown for me.
Get the X5m
Good choice. Me too.
If I want an SUV, I want an actual SUV that can go off road or tow. So GX for me. I see no reason to get a GLE over an E class wagon😊
The gle can off-road and tow. Actually the gle has a better towing capability than the gx, 7700 vs 6500.
@@ii_dynasty interesting, the more you know. But no way it is going off road
@@AE86FTS there's quite a few videos of the gle doing off road challenges. Is it the best no, but it's capable of doing some things. Its not a rock crawler forsure, it's best environment situation would be in dunes as it's bounce mode will get it unstuck in the sand. But to be honest the Gx would likely compete with the Gls instead of Gle as they match up far better.
@@AE86FTS literally can be optioned with an off-roading package
@@Carfan678 tires are still too high profile for off road, and the angles aren't going to be great
The gx…. You don’t buy a Mercedes, those are company leases only….
When I look to Merc near Mercedes line up I say is ok,when I see it now near Lexus I say,wow,what a car.
Sorry but Lexus its possible to be designed by Minecraft.This boxy design is nice on other cars,Hummer,G-Klass,Defender.
Discussing about MB GLE back cut section is meaningless, just to make a point by making a point.
Lexus all day. The GLE just looks like a bigger generic Merc whereas the GX is unique in its looks. It has a presence the GLE wishes it had
Everything gets compared to Mercedes. Perfection at its best
Lexus GX, all the way
The sense of luxury and comfort in the new GLE is incomparable!
Personally I think the Mercedes is better looking
Lexus is the no-brainer choice here. I don't care how nice the Mercedes is, it doesn't measure up at all. I don't like the way it looks from the side with the weird tapering rear overhang, and I don't like the Mercedes interior either. It looks super gimmicky, and the next GLE is probably going to have a different gimmicky interior, unlike the Lexus where everything just seems functional and timeless in comparison. I think the Lexus will age better.
I'd have the new Landcruiser 250 over either of these though. Simpler is pretty much always better.
I’d go with the Lexus no doubt. It looks so much more useful than the Mercedes. The Mercedes just feel like it’ll never see a dirt road in its life, and that’s boring to me. The Lexus feels fresh and new.
No comparison, Lexus GX 550 hands down, end of discussion.
Nah that’s so dumb the merc is a lot better
@@Max10294 If you lease , but definitely not buy to own, endless money pit after 3 yrs.
@@bluethundar well my family have had Mercedes that never broke down, but I see what you mean, the GLE is unreliable I just like the looks
If you want to be "unique" choose GLE ☝🤓
Huh? the GLE is another crossover. GX is a much more rare 4x4
The bad taste of Americans is on display in the comments here. The JBL entertainment system in toyotas is hideous yet they don’t seem to care. The lexus looks like an ugly cheap toy yet somehow Americans love boxes
Exactly. The GLE looks so much better from every single point of view.
Lol, brandwh*re chimp out
Lexus knocked it out of the park with this new GX. I have no idea why anyone would even consider the Mercedes. It is beyond boring and bland in my opinion. The entire M-B lineup is atrocious and is almost as bad as their reliability.
to me, at least, the Lexus looks like a toy. inside and out.
Agry
never chosen Lexus😂😂 Mercedes > Lexus as always
man
Current gx is so trash it is billions of years away from gle. I don’t think it is any different.
GLE is more of the same....Le us looking better
