Product Overview

Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe C292 is a mid-size crossover in production from 2015 to 2019. It was available with a range of V6 and V8 engines that displaced 3.0 to 5.5 liters.
Essentially, the C292 GLE Coupe is the uglified, hunchback version of the W166 GLE-Class, which is the facelifted version of the W166 M-Class. Mercedes made sure that the vehicle is large on the outside but tiny on the inside. Further, it succeeded in producing a vehicle that looks bad from every single angle, including inside, where a small tablet is stuck on top of the dashboard.
Mechanically, the GLE Coupe is rather solid. It has a range of emission-compliant engines that deliver quite a punch. Notably, the 5.5L M157 V8TT engine was used. This engine is arguably more durable than the M178 that followed it.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the GLE Coupe comes with double-wishbone at the front and multi-link at the rear.
